I’ve Lost 68 Sticks of Butter!

I get stuck on numbers sometimes, and I’m a total scale whore. Seriously, I want that thing to MOVE. I’ve had an interesting thing happen during these last few months of working out….the scale barely budges, but my body keeps changing.
I’m a visual person, so I wanted to share something really cool with you. I’ve only lost about 3 pounds, but I’ve gained 14 pound of muscle, and lost 17 pounds of body fat. Pretty cool for a scale not moving. I wanted to let you know that the number on the scale is lying to you. It’s not telling you the full story. Would you believe a girl who’s maybe lost about 3 pounds has lost more than 25 inches off her body? Exactly, hard to believe, but it’s true.
Due to the fact that I’m trying to break my obsession, I thought seeing my progress would be a fabulous visual. I wanted to go to the grocery store and get 17 pounds of butter and snap a picture. The truth is, I chickened out, and was embarrassed. When my friend Alli heard this, she did it for me….all the way in Tennessee, then sent me the results! How cool was that? This is what 17 pounds of butter look like.
All this work is paying off. Seeing this picture really helps me put it in perspective. That scale isn’t budging, but my body sure is! Danielle (my trainer) has helped me melt off 17 pounds of pure body fat, while building important muscle!

[…] Grace asked why I was taking pictures of butter and my friend Deb has put them to use: she has lost 68 sticks of butter! Since Deb is a visual person, and too shy to take a picture herself, I did it for her. […]
Hi, I'm Deb and I'm one of those roller coaster dieters. I want to lose weight, I don't care anymore, I want to look good, I'm tired of thinking about food, and such. Exercise is like a dirty word that I'm trying to make friends with. We'll see how it goes.
