Bathroom scales measure weight, they do not differentiate between lean healthy tissue and excess body fat. 

Scales do not consistently show evidence and reward the people who are focusing on building a fit healthy body, protecting themselves from osteoporosis by ensuring they do not lose muscle as they lose weight and gain age.

Many slimmers hit plateaus and weight stalls after having restricted calories and focused on achieving weight loss as a goal for a long time. Some look for answers outside themselves to raise their metabolism when the answer is within their own bodies.  As we lose weight through the loss of muscle, along with fat, we lower our metabolism until weight loss becomes difficult. Some of us, including myself find we have also decreased our bone density largely because of this muscle lose.

The answer for me came from learning to let go of my focus on the scales and concentrate on doing what I need to do to have a healthy body, which in turn allows me to lead the happy active life I love.

I am sliming, and I do weigh myself, but I am focussing on fitness and not the scales. Because of my fitness actions I am building healthy muscle and bone, I am releasing excess body fat and increasing my metabolism, once more.

I would love you to join me and others who want fitness, slimness,  with no public focus on scales, in our ‘loving ourselves’, forum.   The forum is open to anyone interested in receiving and giving emotional support to those wanting weight management and fitness for life.
