If you have an at-home scale, take a sharpie or permanent marker and write words of encouragement on the scale. When you look down to see the number, you'll also see encouraging words. So whether you like the number or not there will be something nice to see.
Here's what written on my scale:
- 4 weeks = You; 8 weeks = Friends and Family; 12 weeks = The World --> DON'T QUIT
- Basically it takes 4 weeks for you to see a change in your body, 8 weeks for your friends and family to notice, and 12 weeks for the world to notice. Don't give up if you don't see progress in the first few weeks...Keep going!
- This Number Does NOT Define You!
- You're Beautiful
Seems corny, but it really does help. When the number is going in the opposite direction (which it will at times, especially if you're weight-training, muscle weighs more than fat), it is good to be reminded that you are not a failure!
XOXO
