Dear Mrs. Scale
I hate you! I don't normally say that I hate things that often, but I hate you! You are a thorn in my side that no matter how hard I try to remove you, you keep coming back. Haunting me and laughing at me. So I've made a decision---- you are not going to control my life any more! I'm done with you. I hope you and the garbage can live a happy life together. Your ex Friend Tiffany
A friend on mfp made a post the other day that hit home. When people see me they don't see the number on the scale. They see me. Whether it's happy me or sad me or just me. Not the damn number on a scale!! :grumble: From that moment on I decided I'm not letting the scale determine how happy I am or how good I feel about what I am doing. I know I'm getting healthy, I know I'm getting fit, and I know I'm working hard. I don't need Mrs. Scale to tell me that I am!! If my pants start to feel better, GREAT! The scale didn't have to tell me that. If my shirts are a little loose- WONDERFUL. The scale didn't have to tell me that. So this is me taking a stand on the scale!!! For the last time :drinker:
