Gearing Up For The Holidays - Daily Word For Success! Scale!

Hey Everyone 

I was watching the latest episode of Ruby and had to laugh (even though it was not funny).  She kept moving the brand new SCALE she had bought for "big bucks" and kept getting different readings.  It said she weighed 178 in one place and 418 in another...hello  This is a perfect example of how nuts the scales can make us.  Today's word is SCALE!

While the SCALE is a great tool to help us see our progress, depending on the scale alone will drive you insane    In addition to the SCALE use these other methods to help you lose the weight and keep it off.

**  BODY FAT

**  MEASUREMENTS

**  MIRROR

**  CLOTHES

Here is a great link that gives  you detailed information on these other options:

Take care,

Thanks Kathy!!! Its so true~one day the scale is my friend and another day the scale is my biggest enemy! I can't really use the mirror b/c I have a very distorted view of myself in a mirror, but I do use the clothes thing and honestly, we all know if we've been naughty or nice so we pretty much know what the scale will read before we hop on!

I took a vacation day today to put up all my Christmas village and decorations. I watched all the episodes that I had recorded on my DVR.. I loved the show.. I saw myself in her soooooooo many times..
