[quote=Anonymous]OP, if this is real, I'd suggest boxing up your scale, taping the box, and putting it in an out of the way closet. See how you feel about that. Do you feel compelled to check your weight? Try living a week without checking. Check in with yourself and see how you feel. Ask yourself why it matters. See if one week can become two. Then three... I've not fully come to peace with body related aging changes, but it helps to have a goal that is not weight or shape related. My goal is to be strong enough to pick up my kids and fit enough to be able to run 5 miles. I injured a knee, so I had to adjust downward from my previous half marathon level. I'll probably have to adjust again. Being bedridden with the knee for a while was a good reminder to be thankful for what my body can do on good days. I try to remember to thank my body every day before bed. I hope some of this helps.[/quote]
