This picture and this Article is a great example of why just weighing yourself on a scale can be less than ideal. A body scale can be one tool in the toolbox of tracking progress, but remember these friends too:

- Taking Measurements (grab a tape measure and write it down from the beginning)
- The way your clothes are fitting
- What strangers are saying to you about your progress
