In this episode on the Health After 30 Podcast, I share the concept of feel-good weight and how it differs from traditional weight loss. I want to encourage women, just like you to ask yourself: Why do you really want to lose weight? How do you currently feel about yourself? I want to challenge you to think about whether losing weight will make you happy, or is it more important to be content and enjoy where you are before taking action? I will also explore the physical and metaphysical aspects of feeling good, including hormones, nutrition, beliefs, and self-perception. Ultimately my goal is to help women feel confident and good in their bodies by making small shifts in their daily lives.
