I want to get this written tonight so I will be able to share with you before you step on that scale after Easter Festivities and scream! I don’t want you to. I indulged for Easter dinner. I did it with mind and body. Because of this, I don’t have to scream about my weight when I step on the scale. Odds are I will not have lost any weight. I know how much I ate.
3. I will no longer be afraid of the scale. I will weigh myself each morning and chart what is happening to my body. This number is going to help me see what I need to do. It is not a reason for punishment. It is a guidepost for including more fiber, more movement and water in my recipe for living.
That is why I intend to do an “ACCEPT FRIEND REQUEST” from my “Bathroom Scale!” Every once in a while I will get a notification on facebook from my bathroom scale wanting to friend me. When this happens I would just ignore it. The thing is the bathroom scale simply wants to be a friend to help me. You know the type of friend I am talking about. It is the friend that loves and accepts you for you. A friend that is not afraid to voice her opinion about issues with you. It is done in your best interest.
I cannot think of one friend that hasn’t become emotional about their bathroom scale. I doubt that we will ever be indifferent to it, so why not give your bathroom scale a name? We name our cars! Why not our scale? They are both tools that take you where you want to go! I am calling mine Sophie! It’s the name that popped into my head, so I am going with it! What will you name yours? While you are at it, clean her up a bit and maybe put some pretty and positive stickers on her!
Keep Flying!
