Let it go.\u00a0 Let it go.\u00a0 Let it go.<\/p>\n<p>2.\u00a0 <strong>Note it!<\/strong>\u00a0 Whatever the number, high, low or the same, note it.\u00a0 Do not give it emotional juice.\u00a0 Do not feed your weighty reaction.\u00a0 The numbers can be and are deceptive. They can bounce as much as 5 pounds in one day.<\/p>\n<p>3.\u00a0 <strong>Do the Math!<\/strong>\u00a0 Remembering that a pound equals 3,500 calories, could you have eaten over 17,000 extra calories in one day?\u00a0 Not likely.\u00a0 It&#8217;s difficult to gain or lose 5 pounds of excess weight in one day.<\/p>\n<p>4.\u00a0 <strong>Weigh Less: Be More!<\/strong>\u00a0 You, dear Tushkateer, devotee of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.OurLadyofWeightLoss.com\" target=\"_blank\">Our Lady of Weight Loss<\/a>, are more than a number on the scale. Shift your focus to the positive changes that you are making.\u00a0 Zero in on how you are beginning to feel differently about yourself.<\/p>\n<p>5.\u00a0 <strong>Smile!<\/strong>\u00a0 As you weigh yourself, whether it\u2019s daily or weekly or monthly, at the same time, say something positive, encouraging, maybe even loving to yourself.\u00a0 Smile and the scales of injustice will smile with you!<\/p>\n<p>I hope this attitude adjustment helps you to laugh it up while you are slimming down!<\/p>\n<div class=\"copy-paste-block\">\n<p>Share your happy scale tips below or join Our Lady of Weight Loss\u2019s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/30757154492\/\" target=\"_blank\">Kick in the Tush Club\/FB<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For the full skinny as well as Anti-Gravity Specials, sign up for Janice Taylor\u2019s (monthly)<a href=\"http:\/\/maildogmanager.com\/surveys\/OurLadyofWeightLoss\/optin1.html\" target=\"_blank\"> Kick in the Tush Club newsletter<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p>Spread the Word-\u2013NOT the icing!<\/p>\n<p>Janice Taylor, Anti-Gravity Coach<br \/>\n<em>Weight Loss Expert, Author, Artist<\/em>, <em>Positarian<\/em><br \/>\n\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014-<br \/>\nFor the best life, wellness and weight loss wisdom,<br \/>\nvisit Janice: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.OurLadyofWeightLoss.com\" target=\"_blank\">Our Lady of Weight Loss<\/a><br \/>\nSign up for the <a href=\"http:\/\/maildogmanager.com\/surveys\/OurLadyofWeightLoss\/optin1.html\" target=\"_blank\"> Kick in the Tush Club newsletter<\/a>!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recently, a client confessed that the number on the scales of injustice determines her mood for the day.\u00a0 She is not alone, is she?\u00a0 For those who have way too much invested in &#8220;that&#8221;
