Working in the Workouts: Stuck with six pounds?
Moderation is my motto. And most of the time it works for me when it comes to food, exercise and maintaining weight. But since I stopped nursing my daughter a year ago, six pounds have slowly crept onto my frame and they seem to be sticking more than in the past. I guess it's because I'm now 36. And I'm a mother. And I have an evening glass of wine to wind down more often than when I was childless.So, am I stuck with these six pounds? Probably not. If I want to do the extra work it will apparently take to get them off. Clearly, I can't cut a few calories here and there for a couple weeks and do my usual two or three workouts a week plus walking, mowing the yard, etc. and watch the scale go down. It's going to take more. Ugh.
So, my goal after I get back from celebrating my 10th wedding anniversary with a weekend in NYC and consuming Tapas and Italian aplenty is to do just that. Wish me luck.

I only have one question. Why?
Everyone here should know by now that the scale is a bad way to measure health and fat loss. Why are we still using it to judge how healthy we are?
If you want to change how you look or feel then use that to judge not the scale.
Get off the scale.
