Practicing Patience and Managing Expectations [When Can I Expect Results?]

We will be talking all week about expectations and how you can best manage them and we get it, you’re here because you want results, we all do, that’s life. We want what we want and we want it now!

Unfortunately, the scale doesn’t care about when you want your expecations to be met. The scale is a fickle beast. So why do we put so much stock in it?

Not going to lie even after years of Flexible Eating and knowing that the scale is not the end all be all, it’s still the very first thing I do every morning and often times if I don’t take a deep breath it sets the tone for my day.  I wake up lighter, I’m happy, I wake up heavier, I’m sad.

But, it’s not reality.  Maybe I’m heavier because I ate a bit too much sodium, maybe I’m lighter because I ate dinner earlier than usual.
