Throw away the scale

I haven't weighed myself in years. What's the point really? It's a number that can tell you something, or nothing at all. How do my pants fit? is usually a better question to ask yourself.

People obsess over weight, but unless you are competing in a sport with weight divisions, the scale can be a harmful tool in helping people achieve physical health.

Think about how you breathe after climbing a set of stairs. Do your joints ache? Does your neck hurt? Do you feel tired? Fix those things first.
