Good morning everyone! Up and at it again. Not gonna lie I am feeling a bit frustrated with myself as the scale is not moving at all and hasnât in about 3 weeks. I mean Iâm definitely feeling better and thatâs good but that number on the scale is definitely getting to me . Iâve been doing all the things Iâm supposed to I weigh and track absolutely everything I eat and staying within my deficit . Strength training 3-4 times a week & staying active but it just doesnât budge . I actually made my daughter get on the scale the other day to confirm it wasnât broken
. Considering hiding the damn thing away for a bit before it drives me mad. I canât let myself be defined by a number on an evil device in my bathroom after all.
Anyways âŠ.
This morning was upper body that consisted of 3 sets of 8 different exercises + 15 minute jog on the treadmill .
I did get my lift and run in. Thanks for checking in @Seb today is my 10k run race pace
You are not alone! The number on the scale can be so frustrating. Especially when we donât see it go down after all our hard work. I started trying to focus more on how I feel, the way my clothes fit and my body fat % versus the number on the scale.
With strength training you are most likely building muscle and burning fat (which is great)! Downside is muscle weighs more. Could be why you arenât seeing results on the scale? Try not to get discouraged, and know you are not defined by the number on that scale.
Happy Saturday! Super fun workout this morning.

I did my 10k race with no competition today. The actual race got moved but ive been training for months.
I beat my 5k and 10k pace! Feeling great and tired. Now ill watch my suntea turn
The PT I used to see often would tell me tracking body measurements was more important than the scales but I certainly get the frustration
Tried weighing myself again this morning and today itâs up!! @RR160416 @Seb you guys are both right and I just need trust the process at this point. That rat bastard bathroom scale is being moved to our creepy unfinished basement until further notice. Got up early and did my thing.
Spent 35 min on the treadmill
First 10 min was a leisurely pace then 25 min of walk/jog intervals
Work has been my gym lately wanted to hit 30,000 today
Letâs Go!
Wishing everyone the best in this upcoming week. Peace and Take Care Sober Fam. ![]()

Was feeling Mondays workout A LOT yesterday so took a rest day. Like barely got 7000âsteps in kind of rest day . Got up today and did 30 min of walk/jog intervals followed by an extremely busy day on my feet at work. Now itâs not nearly as impressive as @Tito23 âs numbers but feel like I definitely made up for yesterdayâs lazy day.
Youâre killing it @CanadianGirl keep up the great work. Letâs Go! ![]()
