Better blood test results. Being able to move better.

You are a wonderful person doing great things! Keep it up and the scale will eventually show you some love.

I know you know intellectually you're not a failure, but that doesn't change that horrible sinking feeling when the scale's not where you want it to be. Your physical accomplishments are another way to benchmark your progress, though . . . I like to focus on getting stronger, being able to get thru a workout I previously wouldn't have been able to do, etc. Your 10K is awesome, and the PhD GPA is amazing! Measurements tell more than the scale, anyway . . . 'cause you can be losing fat but not losing weight - so keep measuring and don't lose hope!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14871829428496317388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308222398399328911.post-29115370423642678432014-01-05T21:39:07.833-05:002014-01-05T21:39:07.833-05:00I have learned not to be so concerned about the sc...I have learned not to be so concerned about the scale but to see how clothes fit me.

I definitely think measurements mean more but damn, it would be nice to see those numbers go down!<br /><br />All in all, you did rock that 4.0 and 10k...there aren't many people who can say that. You will succeed!<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08692002093725293884noreply@blogger.com
