I've been walking about 2 1/2 miles everyday, and I'm starting to get the "are you losing weight??" questions (which totally boost my ego lol ). Anyway, I don't know exactly how much I've lost and the reason being is because I refuse to look at a scale.
I know if I look at a scale I will be instantly embarassed/ sad and all the typical feelings. I have a really bad tendency to be way hard on myself. I started just a week ago walking a mile, and I'm already up to 2 1/2 - 3 miles a day and considering jogging a bit. So instead of being happy that I've made this much progress so quickly and already showing results, I think "Why aren't you walking more? What's your problem?"
So, this is why I'm refusing to look at a scale because I know I am my greatest critic and if the scale says 250 my brain will read 750 lol. Everyone tells me though I should keep track of the pounds I lose, but I figure I can get an idea just by the amount of sizes I drop in clothes.
Does anyone have the same issue or am I just being silly?
