Ruthie’s Step 9…. The Scale!
Ruthie’s Step 9…. The Scale!
Now that you have decided to get healthy, let’s get to the weighing part. If you decide to do this at home, buy a really good scale. An electronic scale is best! If you are in a support group there is no need to purchase one. Trust me… they will weigh you! As private as possible though.
To have a successful weigh in you need to this only once a week and around the same time. The reason why is that for some strange reason our body weight goes up and down all day and all week! So once a week is enough!
If you can, wear the same clothing or something close to that all during your weight journey. Your clothing will get bigger and bigger isn’t that just awesome! All right! So you may just have to hold on to them while you weigh!
If you are weighing at home I would suggest putting your scale on a very hard surface. A piece of wood would be great to set the scale on. Try not moving your scale. It needs to stay put and not moved around a lot.
You need to weigh in the morning as soon as you get up from bed after your bathroom visit. Never weigh with wet hair, you will be heavier! Some say to weigh bare bottom but night clothes are fine.
So there you have it! Go forth and weigh!
Keep on keeping on….Making better choices for a healthier you!
