Good Morning
I have working out pretty regularly for four months now and I have definitely seen progress but the one thing that has alluded me, is seeing the number on the scale go down. I went looking for suggestions online and the opening question from this article made me smile. “What’s the fastest way to lose 15 pounds?” the answer, “A hacksaw.” If only it was that simple...
The article looks at the topic of "weight" and how important it is in the big picture of health and fitness.
The things a scale can't measure are how strong you’re getting, how much better you feel, or how much more energy you have. The number of atoms we have in our body usually has nothing to do with what we actually want to achieve, making your weight on that scale be the measure of how your doing is not the whole picture.
There are many other ways to measure progress:
- Take pictures, it is easy to forget what you looked like a month ago, having a picture will show you the the changes that are taking place in your body.
- Use a tape measure - often you are slimming down even though the scale may not reflect those changes.
- Do some activity that you have not done in a while or have avoided because of low energy levels. Seeing how much more energy you have will give you the determination you need to keep going.
- Lastly track the things you are doing right, like eating right, remembering the positive things you are doing will help you keep you encouraged.
