Are we entitled to lose weight? So many health & fitness gurus tell us that if we want to lose weight, all we need to do is eat less and move more. So, it makes sense that when we do those things - eat salads instead of pizza, or broccoli instead of brownies - and then stand on the scale, and the scale doesn't reflect what we think it should, that we'd get discouraged.
And of course, when we feel discouraged, we're more likely to give up on whatever plan it is that we're on.
So many of us resentful towards our bodies - that they aren't holding up to their end of the deal. That our bodies are different. Bad in some way because they don't look like they should - look like what other people's bodies look like - or do what they're 'supposed to'.
What if your body could NOT be wrong? But maybe y'all are having a mis-communication issue, which is resulting in a bad relationship?
This episode covers the mistakes that many of us make when losing weight from a dieters mindset, and how to improve your relationship with your body so that you can stop fighting it, and learn to love it - or at least come to accept it.
