Anyone else? We\u2019ve been together since college, and she\u2019s moved with me a dozen times (and even traveled with me on vacation\u2014what?!). But recently I decided to \u201ctake a break\u201d in our relationship, and a surprising thing happened.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I lost weight.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I think. I\u2019m not actually sure, because I haven\u2019t gotten the scale out!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Too much of my time, energy and emotions were being calculated by her 1-inch-by-1-inch screen, and it just had to end! But I\u2019ll admit, I didn\u2019t come to this decision on my own.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I had been in a long season of getting too lax in my food choices, ushered in by my birthday, extended by back-to-back vacations, garnished with the honeymoon phase of starting my first new relationship after <a href=\"https:\/\/thegritandgraceproject.org\/relationships\/when-will-i-be-ready-to-date-after-my-husbands-death\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">my husband\u2019s death<\/a> (enter pizza <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> ice cream several times a week!) and topped off by the ending of said new relationship (order up on the pizza and ice cream!). So, to say I needed a mental and physical reset was the understatement of the year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I had been considering trying <a href=\"https:\/\/whole30.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Whole30<\/a> for months. Over a year, actually, and I had been asked again by a group of my fitness friends to do it together. Because ice cream is my boo, I didn\u2019t really want to commit, but I had the sense to realize I was not going to break out of this junk-food rut without some serious boundaries\u2014and Whole30 definitely offered them. Plus, if I\u2019ve learned anything from Burn, it\u2019s that community coupled with accountability totally equals results. My trainers always recommend macro-balanced meals, and I was pretty sure Whole30 encouraged that as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I decided I had to do it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then I read the guidelines, and they said you couldn\u2019t weigh yourself for a FULL 30 DAYS. What?! I weighed myself EVERY day. How could I survive? I guess the same way I would survive 30 days without pizza or ice cream. Or coffee creamer. Or donuts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I would commit to fueling my body with whole foods, and I would let that be my fitspiration. Not the output on the scale.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I\u2019d put my confidence in doing the work, not tracking the results in digits.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I\u2019d trust the process, not pressure myself with numbers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After just a week, I could see results. I couldn\u2019t quantify them, but all the same, I knew they were there. And I swelled with pride. I was proud of myself for committing to a program and following it not because I could prove it was working (by the figure displayed on a piece of plastic) but instead because I could <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">feel<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> it working.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I was proud of myself for choosing increased nourishment over decreased digits, knowing that how I feel and fuel is way more important than how much I weigh.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I\u2019m almost done with my Whole30 and I\u2019ve been thinking about how I will feel when I am \u201callowed\u201d to step on the <a href=\"https:\/\/thegritandgraceproject.org\/health-and-beauty\/how-to-walk-lighter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">scale<\/a> again.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, I want to see what the program has done for me physically, but I know what it has done for me mentally and I don\u2019t want to waste it. I want to remember that the scale doesn\u2019t define me, and that will remain true if I put boundaries on the way I use it going forward.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I totally want a new BF, but I\u2019m pretty sure I can stay broken up with that bathroom bestie because she was pretty fickle anyway\u2026and now that I know I can survive without her weighing in on my value, I would be foolish to give her that power again.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, if you\u2019re ready to take the risk and break up with your scale, let me leave you with these three thoughts:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Your weight isn\u2019t what people love about you. In fact, they couldn\u2019t guess it if they tried. And news flash: No one is trying to guess your weight but YOU!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. If you\u2019re a slave to the scale, you\u2019re ignoring all of the other great things you\u2019ve got going for you in your health and fitness journey. Those non-scale victories are huge for mental breakthroughs, confidence boosts and non-weight-related goal crushing. When you obsess over your weight, you forget to celebrate these \u00fcber-important milestones.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. I know you know this one, but it bears repeating: Muscle weighs more than fat! This means that the number on the scale doesn\u2019t determine your level of fitness. Your body should change, and your weight might or might not\u2014so make the choice to focus on strength, stamina and sensible food choices more than the scale!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019ve totally got this, just tap into your grit and grace and #beboldandjustbeyou!<\/span><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can hear more from Julie in her conversation with Morgan Kline on Coffee &amp; Kettlebells <a href=\"https:\/\/thegritandgraceproject.org\/relationships\/when-will-i-be-ready-to-date-after-my-husbands-death\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Episode 16: How to Overcome Grief, Comparison and Life\u2019s Obstacles with Grit &amp; Grace.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You might also like this related article from The Grit and Grace Project: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/search?rlz=1C5CHFA_enUS699US699&amp;q=the+Grit+and+Grace+Project:+Forget+About+the+Scale+and+Be+Happy!&amp;spell=1&amp;sa=X&amp;ved=0ahUKEwjU2YGF197dAhXIuVMKHeDVCpoQBQgoKAA&amp;biw=1587&amp;bih=768\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Forget About the Scale and Be Happy!<\/span><\/i><\/a><\/p>\n<p>You can see more from Julie on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/mrsjuliegraham\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/thejuliegraham\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a> and her <a href=\"https:\/\/thegritandgraceproject.org\/podcasts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">podcast<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have a love\/hate relationship with the scale.
