What I'm Learning From Weighing Myself Every Day for 30 Days

I'm eight days into weighing myself every single day and sharing my raw, unfiltered thoughts about the number on Instagram. And let me tell you, this has brought up SO much stuff. Shame, comparison, anxiety about the weekend, thoughts I didn't even know I still had.

But here's what I'm realizing: it's not the NUMBER that's the problem. It's what we MAKE that number mean about us.

In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on what's come up for me in the first eight days of this challenge. I'm sharing the actual thoughts that have popped into my head when the scale doesn't cooperate, when it brings up shame and comparison, and when I'm anxious about "blowing it" on the weekends. And I'm giving you the exact tools I'm using to manage my brain about the scale so you can use them too.

We're covering what to do when you think you're doing everything right and the scale doesn't cooperate, how to handle shame and comparison when you step on the scale, what to do when you're anxious about weekends or events, and the most important question: can YOU weigh yourself without making it mean something about you?

Whether you weigh yourself every day, once a week, or never, this episode is for you. Because even if you never step on a scale, these tools will help you manage your thoughts about your body, your progress, and yourself.

I want to hear from YOU. What's your relationship with the scale like? Does it mess with your head? Do you avoid it? Email me at stacy@sascy.com or send me a DM on Instagram. I'm reading everything, and I want to help.
