Oprah, Lose The Scale To Lose The Weight

No matter what you weigh, it won't be a good day.  If the number on the bathroom scale goes down, it's never enough.  If the number goes up, then you feel like a failure.  Like the watched pot that never boils, a watched scale never changes -- at least not the way you want it to.  Why weigh your self-esteem?  Oprah, I challenge you to throw away your bathroom scale!  Or, at least hide it somewhere that you can't easily access it.  You will know when your body is losing weight, without having to check the number.  Focus on how your body looks and feels, rather than what it weighs.  Keep practicing INTUITIVE SELF-CARE as you eat, exercise and live your life.  See your weight loss success, beyond the number on the bathroom scale!  
To lose weight, ask yourself:  What would happen if I threw away my bathroom scale?
