Saying I Only Lost 1 Pound: Your Relationship With the Scale & Your Self-Worth (Ep. 25)

Over the years, I've coached 100s of women, and most of them say they want to lose weight, but they tell me it's most important to "feel better."  When I ask what that means to them, they tell me about a desire for an increase in energy, liking who and what they see in the mirror, wanting to be more active... And the list goes on.  Then they get into the journey. They're proud choices they're making, and they start to feel better.  But they step on the scale each day looking for a drop in the number.  When that doesn't happen - and by several pounds every single week - they'll say things like, "I only lost 1 (or 2) pounds this week."  In that "only" complications exist. That's what I want to talk with you about today.  And before we have this conversation, know that it's not about judgement.  It's for us to think more deeply about the question that "only" begs:  Does "feeling better" ONLY come from seeing a certain number on the scale? If you said "no," then give this episode a listen as I chat about how to explore your relationship with the scale.  And how to determine what "feeling better" truly means to you and your self-worth.  If you've ever stepped on the scale and said: "I only lost 1 pound," this episode is especially for you. Do me a favor after you listen...  Take a minute to write a review.
