I recently hopped on the scale after a month-long hiatus from the damn thing and saw that I had gained 8 pounds. I was floored. 8 freaking pounds?! I'm a girl and as everyone knows, most girls weigh themselves naked to see the lowest possible number. It's an unhealthy obsession. Anyways, after the initial 8-pound-shock wore off, I got to thinking about how good I had been feeling (before I stepped on the scale) and how much stronger (been doing strength bias) I had become. Hell, I thought that I looked like I dropped 10 pounds and was feeling pretty lean. I decided then and there that the scale was just a stupid gadget that was more suited to weighing boxes and babies.

Love. It. “The only weight you should care about is how much are you lifting.”

Love. It.

On my side however, I'm a cyclist, and I need to have the lowest weight to the highest strength ratio, where my scale comes in very handy; it measures my body fat, water, muscle and bone mass percentages and also my recommended calorie intake. I do agree with you that what your weight shows doesn't mean that your healthy, overweight or underweight, but yet again that is the person and not the scale.
