We got this!

Because I’ve gained 8 pounds since I started working out, but I look and feel better than ever

Waist circumference

Waist to hip ratio

Body mass index (BMI)

Are you lifting more weight

Can you do more reps

Are you doing new exercises that you couldn’t do before

Is your work out getting easier

Are you moving around better

Is your skin glowing

Do you feel happier

Are you more confident

How are your clothes fitting

Do you feel more comfortable in your own skin

Are you sleeping better

Scales are good for telling you how much you weigh. If your goal is literally to make the number on the scale go down, then weighing yourself is a good way to measure that. If you’re trying to lose fat, gain muscle, sleep better, feel happier etc., then a scale is not going to tell you that. Nor will it tell you your worth as a person. Xoxo
