I can relate to this all too well. After hiding my scale bc it never is healthy to use it (for me), I make sure to focus on health and strength and longevity when I work out. I run and lift for my mental health first, and bonus physical benefits that will keep me able to care for my kids for as long as possible. As a single mom with little additional support, this is crucial.
