So on Friday I took a picture of my scale every few hours. Why? To show what the scale may be telling you when you step on it.

The scale weighs everything and nothing at the same time. It can tell you how much your fat, muscle, organs, blood, hair, nails, etc. weigh at that given point and time. It also tells you what you’re wearing, how much product is in your hair, if you’re retaining water, that you ate last night and it’s somewhere in your GI, that you may have had some water in the last few hours, etc.

The scale weighs nothing. This changing number throughout the day doesn’t tell me how much I can squat, how far or fast I run, what my grades are, how well my clothes fit, if I’m a genuinely good person. My scale knows nothing about me.

Everyone fluctuates weight daily. I was as high as 141 and as low as 137 all within less than 24 hours. If we fluctuate this much during the day, imagine how much we fluctuate day to day? Weigh yourself every day and see that after a few days of “good eating” you’re up a few pounds? Is it really fat? Is it really ANYTHING? No.

Don’t let the scale tell your story - it’s a liar.

THERE YOU GO. I mean it’s a great indicator of where you are in your weight loss journey, but don’t give the scale so much credit! Such a beautiful post.

part of the reason I stopped weighing myself!

I miss going on runs at sunset.

I miss brushing my hair without it all falling out.

I miss not having dark circles under my eyes.

I miss having a chest that didn’t palpitate when I went up the stairs.

I miss feeling warm.

I miss sleeping well at night.

But one day I will have these things back, and I will feel alive again.

Anorexia and bulimia are not the only eating disorders. Sometimes it isn’t physically obvious when someone has an eating disorder. Their eating disorder could be a mindset, or an unhealthy eating habit. Just because someone doesn’t look like they’re unhealthily thin does not mean that they’re not suffering from an eating disorder as well. Here is a list of eating disorders.

This may not apply to a lot of people or people may not necessarily want to reblog this, but I wanted to make this post just to spread awareness!
