Don’t Give Up When the Scale Goes Up!

The scale went ⬆️
.
Yes you read that correctly, and 18 months ago I would have been frustrated, likely gone on a pity party and ate like crap for a few days because all of my hard work wasn’t “paying off”.
.
I know the struggle with the scale all too well, but now I have a much better understanding of what’s going on with my body, and that those numbers don’t equate to failure.
.
Over this past weekend I traveled to STL for an awesome experience that included 4 brutal (yet amazing) workouts, paintballing, about 4 hours of golfing, two nice “off plan” dinners and beverages!
.
Given all those factors, I expected that I would have some flux with my weight, increased inflammation from travel and intense training, coupled with some water retention from not being in my regular nutrition regimen.
.
Am I upset? Absolutely not! I work extremely hard every day to make healthy choices, but I’m not a robot.
.
I love a good meal and cocktail from time to time, but I don’t live that every day or every weekend!
.
The game plan after a weekend like this past one is simple...get back to the plan as soon as possible.
.
That’s exactly what I did, and though I’m still sore from the workouts, looking at my progress pics I can SEE the efforts over the 99% of the past 4 weeks...
.
Properly fueling my body from a nutritional standpoint, as well as fighting inflammation with micronutrients, quality greens and omega-3 fatty acids high in EPA and DHA are the core of my regimen.
.
I feel so much better, less bloated and sluggish already, and I know that come next weeks weigh-in, the scale will tell a different story.
.

.
Do you get frustrated with the scale? Are you looking at all the factors, how consistent you’re being with nutrition, and if you’re doing everything possible to fight inflammation each day? If you’re struggling, I’d love to help! Feel free to message me 📥
