I've always been obsessed with the scale. My goal was to get down from 156 to 130. I really wanted the scale to read 130. But I'm now changing that mindset. I'd much rather look the way I do from the side than the scale read 130 and be flabby. It's interesting how our goals change and how we fixate on various variables. I'm shocked that now I'm fixated on my muscles and less on my weight. I have even stopped weighing myself. When I started Pilates I was 140 and now I'm 144, which I can say absolutely is muscle considering my dress is an eight and fits perfectly. I have finally started to love my curves in a different way, have started to look at my body differently. I no longer see a chubby woman. I see a lean canvas. I see potential and feel the difference in my muscles. I have to say those differences are way better than the scale. I imagine this is what crossfitters feel like but I'm enjoying my pilates a great deal!
