What are you making your weight on the scale MEAN?

Have you ever stopped to ask yourself this question? When you step on the scale and the number staring back at you isn’t what you expected, what story do you start telling yourself? As as online macro coach, I think this episode should be required listening.

What inner dialogue begins to unfold in those moments? It’s crucial to become aware of these thoughts because they can shape not only your mood for the day but also your overall mindset and relationship with your body.

In this episode, I want to take you by the hand and guide you through this experience, offering you support and insights that can make a world of difference.

We’ll dive deep into the emotions that arise when the scale shows a number higher than you anticipated, and I'll share with you SIX KEY CONCEPTS that can help you navigate these challenging moments with more compassion and clarity.

This episode was sparked by a real-life scenario involving a client who recently faced this very situation.

She stepped on the scale, only to discover she was 10 pounds heavier than she had imagined.

The disappointment, frustration, and self-criticism that followed were palpable.

Ooof. I know that sinking feeling all too well… and chances are, you’ve been there too. If so, this episode is going to resonate deeply with you.

Together, we’ll explore the crucial difference between using the scale to judge your success and using your habits, feelings, and behaviors as a more accurate and empowering measure of progress.

The number on the scale is just one data point, and it doesn’t define your worth or your achievements.

I’ll also talk about the importance of speaking kindly to yourself—not just in these moments of challenge, but as a consistent practice in your journey. Your self-talk can be your greatest ally or your harshest critic, and learning to navigate that inner conversation is key to sustaining both your physical and mental well-being.

We’ll touch on how to distinguish between the facts and the fiction our minds sometimes create.

When you see a number you don’t like, it’s easy to spiral into negative thoughts… that aren’t even based on reality. I'll help you identify those stories and rewrite them in a way that serves you better.

Finally, we’ll discuss what it means to truly take ownership—not just of your choices, but of the beliefs that drive those choices. This shift is essential for creating lasting success, both in the short term and long term.

When you align your actions with positive, empowering beliefs, you set yourself up for a healthier, more balanced life—physically, mentally, and emotionally.

I would absolutely love to hear your thoughts on this episode.
