 I had to find accountability and motivation elsewhere – thinking outside the box and coming up with some creative solutions that worked for me and inspired me to be more successful.  For example, when I started noticing that I was losing weight, I bought myself a scale to use at home.  Now, I know that most people HATE this tool for measuring weight loss and there are plenty of reasons why, too.  “My weight fluctuates every day,” or, “I have a lot of muscle mass and muscle weighs more than fat so it’s not accurate,” or, “It makes me feel depressed to look at my weight because I’m too heavy,” or, “I hate the scale. Period.”  All common ways of thinking, and certainly things I used to believe.   Well, that changed when I changed my perspective.  I had lost a little weight, so I liked the idea of stepping on the scale and having it show less than it ever had before.  Even though the number was still huge, I saw it as a good thing and I liked the feeling of knowing that I really did weight less.
