Question

Your friend Emily has just started a new fitness program and wants to know if a scale is a good way to track her progress. Give your opinion and justify your response with examples from this lesson.

Answer 1

Yes and no, a scale can help by telling if you are losing or gaining weight but the downside is that it can also discourage you. It can make you feel like you are not making any progress at all or it can make you feel like you have gained weight.
