Goodbye Scale!

For the past three weeks I have watched my weight rise two pounds. I have been quite bummed about this. We live in a weight-obsessed society so oh course it would bother me. But then I realized that my weight just tells me how many pounds I am. It doesn't take into account my muscle gain or fat ratio. So although I have gotten down to 108 within the last six months and am currently at 110, I feel better about my body than I did six months ago. I would rather weight more and have a better looking body. Do I really want to look skinny and malnourished and have to watch everything that goes into my mouth? No! I would rather work hard, have a toned, lean body, and weigh a few more pounds. I am done weighing myself...I will be going on looks only!
