its hard not to focus....

on the number....its REALLY HARD....and I KNOW THIS....but I still do it...I am sure we all do....I exercise every day anywhere from 30mins to 2hours.... I eat up to my calorie goal and eat some of my exercise calories back...and im not talking junk food....i try to keep my food balanced with fruits veggies grains meats etc....i do get in the occasional sweet treat...but who doesnt?!?! i know that cutting that out will be like setting myself up for failure....but i keep it in check....and i KNOW muscle weighs more than fat....and I SEE my body changing....yet I CANNOT let go of the number...specially when you gain 1.5lbs....I have been keeping my sodium in check and when I do not...I make sure to compensate with water....HOW do you let go of the number??? I wish I had a tape measure to track inches instead....but at this point I dont see how much good it will do me as I dont have that much more to go til I am at my "goal" weight....I really wont be able to see much of a change between now and then....I just with the scale would reflect my hard work.
