Hey, what's going on? Welcome to the fit, healthy, and happy podcast. It's your host, KG, and I am on the mic.

Super fired up. And today I'm going to be going solo. This is probably our third episode in almost 300,

where it's not coach Josh myself, and he's just feeling a little under the weather today.

But don't worry, I will bring

the heat, I will bring the fire, super, super pumped to, you know, just be here and speak to every single one of you. And the cool thing is, like, today I'm going to be talking about 15 non-scale wins. I'm not really sure what we're going to call it just yet, but, you know, and it's kind of funny today i was planning the episode and i started with five i was like okay i'm just going to go over

five things you know that like our huge win You know, and it's kind of funny. Today I was planning the episode and I started with five.

I was like, okay, I'm just going to go over five things, you know, that like are huge wins, especially if you are, you know, just not focusing on the scale. And then I'm like, oh my gosh, there's so many. And I'm like, okay, 10. And then 15. And here we are 15. I could probably go to 25 or maybe even 50, but, you know, for the sake of your time, let's just jump right into it. So with that being said, I just wanted to preface this and say, you know, like the scale is a great measurement tool, right? Like there is a lot of info that can be given from it, but there's also a lot of things that aren't being given from the scale. So if you do want to listen to, you know, it's an older episode, episode 179, I've linked it down below. It's an amazing podcast saying why you should and shouldn't care about your weight, right? So today I just wanted to make sure that you guys all understand there's so much more than just the scale. Of course, yes, losing 20 pounds. Like we,

a lot of times, you know, we talk about clients losing 20 pounds, 50 pounds, even 100 pounds, but there's so much more to it than that. And a lot of times people just focus on what that number is and they dictate how they feel based off of, you know, what the scale says. Like you wake wake up, you know, let's say you're 183 pounds.

The next day, it fluctuates. It says 184. Holy crap. You just have like an absolute fit. Everything

sucks, you know, and you're just feeling super demotivated. It shouldn't be that way. Weight will

fluctuate up and down for anywhere between one and five pounds every single day based off of like 10 different factors.

Salt, you know, sleep, like the time that you weigh in.

Like there's so many different things.

So anyways, now that that's off of my mind, let's jump into the first tip or non-scale win.

I'm going to start off with number one, you're choosing the healthier option. And this one's

probably one of my favorites, and that's why I wanted to start with it, because you may notice

as you start to get into fitness and like working out and just like, you know, doing all of this

fitnessy type stuff that you just start to like kind of pick the right thing right like you may be someone

and what i mean by that is like who's someone who drinks like a lot of coax or like you know um

soda and then like you find yourself like picking maybe a sparkling water or just like water you

may be the person who doesn't walk as much but then you start you know maybe saying oh i'm

gonna park a little bit further you find yourself just being like okay you then you start, you know, maybe saying, oh, I'm going to park a little bit further. You find yourself just being like, okay, you know, maybe at dinner, you know, instead of having a drink of alcohol. Once again, that's not necessarily a bad thing. Like, you know, fitting alcohol into your calories and all that stuff is totally cool. But you may find yourself like, you know, just making that healthier choice instead of having fast food seven times per week,
