Warning these are my opinions only I am not a medical professional. Here’s the thing the #1 way for me to lose motivation to lose weight, my scale. I exercise, I lose weight sometimes. But more often than not that scale has sabotaged me more than once. Even when I lose weight according to my scale it sabotages me. Then there is the doctor’s scale which is evil and never correct. I’m convinced they put their foot on it behind me when I’m standing there…just sayin’

Anyway, the thing is I have been exercising and eating pretty well. I know with all certainty that if I get on my scale and it tells me I’ve only lost a little or heaven forbid none at all or worse yet gained, that’s it. My brain will again say, what’s the point? A few months ago I had lost 10 lbs, no where near the amount I want to lose but fantastic amount none the less, what happened? I stopped exercising, suddenly for some weird reason I haven’t quite figured out I lost all motivation.

Ditch it, give it away, hide it, lock it up-put that scale away. You are smart enough to know if you are doing things right, you will feel it and if you’re not you know that scale is not going to be your friend. Do what you need to do and forget the numbers.
