Do you want to know how to not get upset when you weigh yourself? Well, here it is – Do Not Weigh Yourself! This is my opinion.
Oftentimes, your scale shows a higher number than usual, or not showing that you actually lost weight because you possibly drank more water than usual, or it might be just that time of the month (ladies 🙂 )… But what happens when you see that number?

Without even realizing what’s going on, we start to comfort eat. Our emotions drive our eating habits: we overeat, then feel bad about ourselves, and then the cycle starts all over again.
The good news is that all of this emotional eating is a learned behavior, which means you can unlearn this behavior.
