I stopped weighing myself when Lent started! I find when I'm in weight loss mode the scale affirms me. Not always a bad thing, but I want to learn to eat healthy for health's sake not just the number on the scale. Also, I was afraid with my increased exercise it would be a while before the scale budged as muscle repair was going to cause me to retain water and I certainly didn't need de-motivation. Right now, I'm excited to notice that my upper arms are starting to get (a very little) thinner. And I fit into a pair of size 10 jeans! (they were Lee mom jeans, but still!)
