This is so true and every women is worth more than a number :)
"We’ve made the scale our symbol of authority, of worth, of truth. If we’ve been "bad", there’s no denying it because it shows up on the scale. If we’ve been "good", getting on the scale will be its own reward. The scale, has become like God—it knows all.

A scale, however, is just a scale—a cold, lifeless piece of metal—until we give it its power. We make it into the instrument that tells us if we should like ourselves today or not. And we do that by accepting societal beliefs about the goodness and the rightness of being at a lower rather than a higher weight and also by continuing to weigh ourselves day after day.

As if you can’t tell by the way your clothes fit whether you have lost or gained weight.
As if you need punishment to force you into losing weight.
As if you weren’t a feeling, thinking, capable human being who can decide for yourself what kind of day you’re going to have and how you’re going to feel about yourself.
Throw your scale out.
Your weight does not define who you are as a person. People do not go around saying “Hey 150!”, “Whats up 120?”, or “How are you doing 173?”
No. They say “Hey Sarah!”, “I missed you John”, “Whats been going on in your life Alex?”
People are not aware of our weight fluctuations, nor are they judging us for the number that shows up on the scale.
If a person IS doing this, they are obviously not someone you want as a part of your life.
Do not give the scale power over your life.
Do not let it define your self worth.
You are so much worth more than a scale!
