My scale is stubborn…still won’t budge…but…so what…I got a new attitude!!!
oh yeah….
Me and the scale are butting heads, we have locked horns. It has become an all out war!
But, I don’t care anymore. Don’t worry…I am not saying uncle…no not that…but I have decided, I am going to be even more stubborn than my stupid scale. If it is going to play like that…then I am too!
Yep…I am going to keep at it. I am hard-headed and tired of waiting on the scale to move again…so I am just going to keep on doing what I have been doing. Weigh, wog, log, blog…rinse and repeat.
This morning I got up and felt skinny. Seriously…my tummy was much flatter. But am I skinny? no…but I felt like I was.
What did that one guy used to say, it is better to look mahvelous than to feel mahvelous?
…well, I disagree. I think feeling better is MUCH better.
- I have decided I feel better, physically and emotionally.
- My measurements are smaller.
- I feel more confident.
- My health has become important to me.
- I like to exercise…it makes me feel more alive, young and invigorated (not to mention what it has done for my love life:)
- I enjoy eating the right amounts of healthy foods and feel bad when I over indulge in bad foods.
For now, I suppose, I just have to trust the process…the metamorphosis. I am like the butterfly in the crysalis, changing inside…even though I can’t see all the changes YET:)
I love your attitude Chrisie. We are on the same page with the scale issue. As long as we feel good and look good, that’s all that matters. Have a great evening.
Great look at it! Why is it that the scale is so mean? Really, it doesn’t need to be that stubborn. Keep it up. You will win (and lose-haha pun intended)
That is the way to go. I love your thoughts on changing on the inside even you dont see it. Our bodies are much like onions. The fat is in layors and it seems to take forever for one layor to fall off but when it does, wow, can we see it. Before that, we can’t so you keep at it girl and show that scale whose boss!
Hey, girl! I like your attitude.
Have you tried taking some measurements? …I usually take a full set of them at the beginning of each month…and sometimes sneak a peek at a waist or abdominal measurement when the scale is going no where… it helps.
Wow…thanks so much for sharing this! I weighed in a few minutes ago & came close to tears. But, ya know, I FEEL better myself. Changes ARE happening & we’ll soon be able to see them. Perserverance, girlfriend!
You go, girl! Love that attitude!
You are an amazing and awesome buddy!
Have a good one!
Big HUGS!
How many morning I have gotten up and felt really good, on top of the world. Then stepped on the scale and it all came crashing down. How stupid to let a chunk of plastic and metal ruin my day, burst my bubble…. completely defeat me. It happened so many times I finally got rid of my scale. (that’s how I became known as the streak… ) You just keep it up chrisie. You’ve won the war already!
War against the scales Chrisie, don’t ever give up the battle
I know I’ve given up over and over, but still come back up fighting…sounds like thats where you are at my friend!!
You are indeed right…changes from the inside first, then you’ll shine even more on the outside!! Love ya!!
You may not be able to see all the changes yet but you are feeling them. I don’t understand why we put so much emphasis on that scale. Yes, it does show us how much we weigh but if we are feeling good about ourself and we know we’ve been doing great and everything right, for the most part, and that scale doesn’t spit out the number we think we should have then our moods go down. But I like your attitude. And you are right, keep doing what you are doing because it is working and that scale will eventually give up and you will win.
Stubborn RULES! WOOOPWOOOP! I am very stubborn, I need to USE that to my advantage. Great blog and it inspired me to do something I havent been able to do for a very long time…no not that :)…I AM GOING TO PUT MY SCALE AWAY UNTIL NEXT SUNDAY! I am going to focus on making changes that make me FEEL good and not let the scale decide (at least on a daily basis) what my mood is or how good I think I look or not…so there! Im gettin my STUBBORN on girl! And my panty hat! YeeHaw!
You have it exactly right and I LOVE YOUR ATTITUDE! YOU ROCK!
Awesome attitude, I am there with you, We gotta fight!
With that attitude, you will succeed! Keep it up!
I actually like exercising now too, it is just part of my day, like showering and brushing my teeth.
