The scale isn’t moving. This is so discouraging; maybe I’ll give up.
Response: While it’s true it’s discouraging when the scale doesn’t move, it doesn’t mean I should give up. If I give up, it will never move down (and it’s almost guaranteed to move up). If I keep doing what I’m doing, it will eventually move down, and when it does, I’ll be so glad I stuck with it. Plus, chances are other things ARE moving even if the scale isn’t (I may be losing inches, my blood pressure may be better, my sense of control may be increasing, etc.).
