For those who weigh in daily every day … what do you do when you do everything “right” and scale stays exactly the same ?? The old me would throw in the towel and say “F it,” but I don’t want to do that anymore ! That mentality is why I have been yo-yoing back and forth the same 5 lbs for 2 years.

  • If you do it daily you become desensitized to the car crash of emotion that comes when it goes up. Seriously. Plus there are times that it goes down that you don’t even know bc you aren’t looking! Like others mentioned, it’s data. It also helped me learn that it might go up today but then down the next two days. I’ve had six decrease days out of 8 so far this month. One day that I went up, it was 1.8 lbs, which used to deflate me. But surrounded by all the loss, I know it’s all good. For reference, green is loss, pink is gain, yellow is no change (I rarely get those).

It’s so great that you’re aware of that old mindset and are ready to break free from it! Remember, the scale is just one tool, not the full story. When it doesn’t move, focus on the bigger picture, how you feel, your energy levels, how your clothes fit, and non-scale victories like sticking to your habits.

With 2B Mindset, it’s helpful to reflect and ask yourself: Am I drinking enough water? Did I focus on veggies first? Am I tracking honestly? Sometimes small tweaks make a big difference, even when it feels like you’re doing everything right.

Consistency beats perfection every time, and the key is to stay patient. The scale will eventually catch up, but your healthy habits are what truly create lasting change. Keep going you’ve got this!

  • I started a new workout program today. Love BODi workouts! This one is 4 Weeks of Focus. I liked it way more than I thought I would. Pretty simple moves but put together differently makes it go by so quick. Yesterday there was so much chocolate at work and I couldn’t resist and ate some. For dinner I focused on veggies most with some lean protein. Didn’t eat anything after dinner (had a cup of tea instead).

I did this program at the end of last year. Lots of squats but I loved it

I liked this program ! Had to modify a little because there was too much jumping (jump squats) for my old knees .

Ate on plan yesterday. Drank 100 oz of water. Did a 30 min peloton ride. Down a pound. I know that won’t happen every day, but encouraging to keep going !
