Let me tell you why the stupid weight scale is stupid. Scale is stupid reason #1- How many millions of people have set a weight goal, only to hit that specific weight and still not be happy with how they look? Millions. Why? Because the scale doesnt account for the dynamic shape of your body. Just because you weigh a certain amount doesnt mean you are going to look the way you want. Scale is stupid reason #2- How many people have looked fantastic, only to self demonize because they dont conform to what mainstream media thinks a healthy or ideal weight is? Millions. According to the BMI (which is also ridiculous and archaic) I am a statistic for being overweight. Guess what? I dont care and neither should you. Scale is stupid reason #3- If you go to a bodybuilding competition, do any of them get weighed and measured on stage in the process of finding a winner? Never. They are judged according to presentation, conditioning and symmetry. So why in the world do so many people train to reach a certain weight? If aesthetics is your goal, train for a look. Train for conditioning and symmetry, balance in your physique. Scale is stupid reason #4- Ive said this before, but it bears needing to be repeated. Lets create a mock conversation between Sarah and Brandi. Sarah- Brandi, you look SOOOO good!! Im so jealous of your arms and your legs, I wish I had your definition!!! Brandi- Thank you, but Im actually really frustrated. Sarah- Why, what is going on? Brandi- Well, Ive actually gone up on the scale, I weigh ______ now and its freaking me out! Sarah- Yikes!! Youre right… Nobody can possibly look good at that weight and at your height, you have to weigh _______. Im sorry, I have to retract my previous compliments. You just simply cant look good at that weight. The stupid scale is stupid. Let the mirror be your guide, it is a much truer representation of fit. If you look good, the scale doesnt matter, you look good!
