167: How to Stop Letting the Scale Control You


Listen Later

Have you ever stepped on the scale and let a number determine your mood, whether you were "good" or "bad?" If you've ever spiraled, questioned whether your efforts are "working," or felt defeated by the scale, this episode is for you!

In this episode, Megan breaks down women's toxic relationship with the scale and how to stop letting it control your mood, actions, and weight-loss results.

In this episode, she covers:

  • Why the scale is only one piece of data, not a measure of your worth

  • The biggest mistake women make when using the scale and tracking progress

  • How body recomposition can be happening even when the scale isn't moving

  • Why fat loss is rarely linear (and what to focus on instead)

  • How to become neutral to the scale and start making decisions based on your actions, not your emotions
