Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
Let me give you a lesson in water weight…
When I weighed myself 2 days ago, a day before I was going to get my period, the scale said 117.8
When I weighed myself today after eating a normal breakfast, the scale said 116.2
When I weighed myself after running 8 miles the scale said 114.6
I did this for a reason - the scale fluctuates daily!! It is not something you can rely on, so don’t take it so seriously. Don’t get so hung up on a number. Focus on how you feel as well as other non scale victories! :)
