Popsugar Health & Fitness Then And Now Screw the Scale Transformations These Before-and-After Photos Prove How Useless the Scales Can Be When You're Slimming Down 24 June 2018 by Jenny Sugar View On One Page Photo 23 of 25 ADVERTISEMENT () Start Slideshow PART 2:❗️THE NUMBER ON THE SCALE DOESNT TELL THE WHOLE STORY❗️🤷🏼♀️📈 . Barely a difference in scale weight between these two photos of me🤔But obviously a very significant difference in my BODY COMPOSITION💪🏼🔥. More muscle now & less fat. But still a similar scale weight⚖️. This is what I try to explain to clients! Don't be discouraged if the number on the scale doesn't say what you feel like it should- less weight is not necessarily better🤷🏼♀️your weight can go up, down, or stay the same but all of it can still mean you're making progress! Taking your measurements can be a huge help: because, for instance, perhaps your waist is getting smaller but your butt is getting more muscular🤷🏼♀️📈💪🏼 that may look the same on the scale but very different in real life. ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️ . ❗️2013: lost a bunch of weight and then gained it all back (+ some) because I didn't know BALANCE. I would over-restrict my calories Mon-Thurs and binge eat everything I could find Fri-Sun. I'd do tons of cardio when I went to the gym and barely lifted weights because I thought it would make me look "like a man"... . ❗️2017: I lift weights & track my macros👌🏼. I eat enough food every day of the week to keep me satisfied. No more binge eating & no more over restricting🙅🏼. I lift as much as I possibly can + do a little cardio to keep my body healthy😁! . The difference between these two photos is the difference between being unhappy/unhealthy & being happy/healthy. . 🙏🏼Let me help you reach your goals!📈 💪🏼Join my Summer Challenge by clicking the link in my bio! 📥Feel free to DM with questions💕 .
