I started my journey to lose weight in Sept 2010. Since then I have found my passion for running and completed several races from 5k's to half marathon's. This blog is an extension to my FB page were I can share my journey in more depth.

Not letting the scale rule you


I wrote this on my FB earlier and wanted to document it here so I can look back on it and how I'm feeling.

Today is my weigh in day at club tonight. For once I'm not excited and I'm not nervous. I'm medioca and feeling great about it. I know I've had a great week and even if by chance the scales didn't show it this week I know they will catch me back up eventually. I won't let my self be controlled by the scale every week. Everyone has blips on the scales, sometimes we know why sometimes we don't and we just have to move on and know it will catch us back up. As many of you have said there is other ways to see progress. I enjoy going to club as we talk about more than just the scales we talk about what obstacles we have upcoming and how we can tackle them to make sure we have a good week. If we're feeling uneasy about anything we talk it through. It's a good open forum to discuss and get advice from people who have been there before. This is a long term journey and is what I need to be able to succeed. I just have to make I don't let the scales rule how I tackle the following week, that could either be going of the tails because it didn't show what I wanted or thinking I'm doing so well I can let things slip..... :D
