20+ Proofs That Weight On The Scale Is Nothing But A Number

We all try to lose a few pounds because a low weight is considered an indicator of good looks. But lately popular bloggers have rebelled against this rule and, with their example, have started to show that weight is just a figure that doesn’t always depend on physical appearance.

O awesome.club compiled the most brilliant examples that show that scale indicators are unreliable.

+ 10 kilos, but a healthy and radiant appearance

Sometimes it’s good to gain weight.

“In these two photos I weigh the same thing, but I don’t see myself the same way… Forget the scale, throw it out the window, destroy it, do what you want, but don’t get on it again”.

“3 years, but with a difference of only 1 kilo”.

A year later, the same weight.

67 kilos in the photo on the left and 66 on the right. Result of work for 3 years.

“I reached the same weight I was when I first started training, almost 2 years ago… It seems like the exercises somehow worked, right?”

“Weight is not a good indicator of progress, I gained 4 pounds of muscle mass and lost over 7% body fat.”

“It’s my best photo of 2017.”

“Today I am heavier than at any other time in my life! Why does it matter? Because weight means nothing. It was never reflected in my health and fitness level.”

“One of the most important things I achieved in this challenge was putting the scales aside and learning to feel and see the changes that are taking place in my body. After two months, I don’t know where the balance is, and it doesn’t matter to me”.

“Do you really want to be a figure on the scales or feel better? Do you see yourself better? Are you stronger? It’s healthier? Just remember what your goals are and the scale won’t show them to you.”

“The number on the scale does NOT take into account your body composition (fat and muscle mass), which ultimately determines how thin you are.”

“While these changes aren’t that big, it took me a long time to understand the truth: what weighs the most is fat.”

“Between these photos there is a difference of 7 years, and in both the weight is equal. My body looks completely different, but the scale shows the same weight.”

“I completely changed my diet: lots of protein, vegetables and fruits, and also beneficial carbohydrates like sweet potatoes and brown rice.”

“Three more years, six pounds and a new bikini, I found this picture on my phone.”

“Weight doesn’t make you look heavy (carbs don’t either). You are beautiful no matter how heavy you are.”

“I’ve always been a small women’s size and ate horribly, and I also never trained (except ballet). Now I’ve gained 6 kilos and I love life…”

“I reinforced my love and confidence towards myself at the same time as I did it with my muscles. It all started with a simple decision, wanting to be healthy.”

“The same weight, but what a difference! Dedication to weightlifting + cardio 4 times a week.”

“Stop letting the scales determine your success: it’s just a number!”
