    Summary This conversation discusses non-scale victories and effective ways to measure progress in health and wellness. The hosts emphasize the limitations of using the scale as the sole measure of progress and encourage alternative methods. They explore various non-scale victories, including improved clothing fit, enjoying physical activity, increased energy, improved sleep, fitness milestones, sharper mind, better skin, losing inches, healthier coping mechanisms, positive body changes, reduced pain, improved mood, improved medical markers, increased social support, and a healthier plate. The conversation concludes by acknowledging that the scale can still be used as a measurement, but it is not the most accurate depiction of overall health. Takeaways The scale is not the most effective tool for measuring progress in health and wellness. Non-scale victories, such as improved clothing fit, increased energy, and improved mood, can be more meaningful indicators of progress. Other measures of progress include fitness milestones, improved coping mechanisms, reduced pain, improved medical markers, increased social support, and a healthier plate. While the scale can still be used as a measurement, it should not be the sole focus.
