beyond the daily weigh-in trap

After years of unhealthy scale obsession (once even cut my hair to "lose weight"), I've learned to focus on monthly averages instead of daily fluctuations. Now I track patterns - bowel movements (±1lb), menstrual cycle, salt intake - to understand natural weight variations without stress. Anyone else find mental freedom in tracking trends rather than fixating on daily numbers? What strategies help you maintain perspective?#HealthyMindset #WeightLossJourney #SelfCare
