Celebrating all of the hard work you've done along your fitness journey can be very liberating. One of the most common ways to check on your progress is to step onto a scale to see your current weight. However, there are many other ways that you can check your progress and celebrate your accomplishments which don't involve following numbers which can be very intimidating for some people. 

In This Episode You Will Learn:

1). Why it's important to recognize and celebrate your health and fitness progress when you hit your milestones.

2). How losing weight is usually the primary reason why most people exercise and why reading your weight on a scale has become the "standard" way of measuring progress.

3). The emotional and mental toll that constant weight measuring can take and why focusing on other "wins" can be more effective to recognize your weight loss accomplishments.

4). How noticing enhanced physical abilities and increase in strength can be helpful motivators in celebrating the work you are doing in your fitness journey.

5). Why monitoring your flexibility and agility are good indicators that your hard work is paying off.

We hope the tips we've shared in this episode are helpful to you or someone you know who may be on their own health and fitness journey. We all like to see and feel the progress that we make especially if you are trying to lose weight. But don't forget that being healthy and taking care of yourself doesn't always have to involve numbers and weight measuring. Feeling good and being proud of yourself that you are putting in the work to live a active and healthy lifestyle should always be of precedence over constant weight measuring.
