Dangers of the ScaleWritten by HSF Vitamins
A Full Scale War "The scale can be like a lousy personal trainer. It can be giving you bad information. In other words, do not become too dependent on this devilish, little device sitting on your bathroom floor. " It happens every morning when you mosey out of bed, somewhere between time you take off that robe and instant you step into shower. For others, it happens immediately after a workout, as soon as you peel off those sweaty clothes and stand aimlessly in your birthday suit.Then, big moment arrives. The excitement, tension, it all forms a giant knot in your throat. This experience is a lot like playing roulette wheel and you know you have plenty riding on this one. Hence, numbers that come up can spree a variety of reactions. You step onto scale in your bathroom and peek through your fingers at fate staring back at you. To some, you jump up and down like you just hit jackpot. Others shriek as if they’d just crapped out. Well, scale is indeed a useful tool to monitor your weight-loss developments. What other method is there to track specifically how much you’ve progressed in your endeavors to lose weight? Yet, scale can be like a lousy personal trainer. It can be giving you bad information. In other words, do not become too dependent on this devilish, little device sitting on your bathroom floor. Here are two reasons why: * Scales are not perfect. At any given moment, it can go from being your best friend to your worst enemy. If scale isn’t tipping your way, it can throw your entire mental state off mark. Scales can often deceive you into thinking you’re heavier – or lighter – than you actually are. In more case, it’s latter. And by thinking that you’re that far ahead of game, only one you’ll be fooling is yourself. Instead, try going by how your clothes fit on your body or how you feel internally than relying on some imperfect machine. Take a picture of yourself at beginning of month and then at end of month to evaluate progress. Obsession with scale is not unlike other fixations – it’s certainly not healthy.
