Weighing goals

I noticed that I was spending way too much time obsessing about numbers on the scale, so I gave it up for the moment. Funny how it’s still drawing me, this morning was typical. DH and were in the bathroom, getting ready for work.

There’s a bathtub book rack that DD puts on the scale when she takes a bath, and I use it as the “reason” to not step on the scale. At one point DH takes the rack off and weighs himself. He puts the rack back on the tub, where it belongs, then he returns to the bedroom to get dressed. It’s just me and the scale, beckoning to be stepped on. I remind myself that my goals are not about the scale at the moment, and escape.

I plan on getting on the scale 3x this month. Once this week, once next week, and once after vacation is over. But not today.

My positives

1. It feels better to not weigh frequently
2. My swimming was great yesterday!
3. I’m enjoying taking the day off from exercise today
4. I’m learning how my body responds to a lot of water and a medium amount
5. I like the way I’m a bit better organized now
