I've figured out that walking/running is key to my weight loss. I could cut all the calories I want, but I always/only see the scale drop after I walk or run 2-3 miles the day before. I don't lose pounds after days where I do calisthenics or weight-lifting, which is fine. Hopefully, that means I'm gaining muscle mass.
My common-sense goal is to gain muscle mass while losing fat mass, which means that sometimes the scale won't move...But my emotional brain still feels disappointment and frustration when my weight doesn't drop. I really wish the number on the scale didn't matter so much to me, but it does. I need to work on that.
