No Scale Challenge day 1, who is joining me?
Hi Guys
So I kicked the scale to the curb, in my case at least till july 1st. I heard some of you would like to joine me in this challenge? So let me know what your plan is, how long you want to kick your scale aside and why. And let's talk to each other every day about how we are doing and what our NSV's are. Let's focus on other things than the numbers for a while
My first morning: I bypassed the scale today and feel awkward but also excited about it! It gives me kind of a peaceful feeling for now.
My plan for today is to go out and have fun with familye; we have a family reunion todfay and lots of folks have not seen me for the last 55 kilograms, so this should get interesting ;-)
we are going to a big playground and the kids will have fun playing and we will sit in the sun (20 degrees today!) and chat and be merry. I will be wearing my Desigual dress, a spanish brand I have been DYING to ever get into and now I am WEARING it! So happy about that!
There will be a mexican buffet tonight and I'll focus on protein. For lunch I am taking my bentobox filled with protein and will take my shaker and drink lots of fluids today
so it should eb a GOOD day all around! My focus for today: family!
how about yours? Pick a positive focus for today other than numbers on a scale. And name what is positieve about your day :-)
I do think learning to handle the land mine that is your scale is an important part of this process. You are so much more than a number.

But for you that have recently had surgery, I do agree that if you are obsessed with the scale instead of just following your plan, you can make yourself go crazy. Good for you for realizing that!
