I’m pretty fired up in this episode! The goal weight fixation is a sign that so many of us are caught up in a very unhealthy phenomenon called the diet mentality, which is part of the diet culture, which is a sickness in our country… if not throughout the world! In this episode I talk about the struggles inherent when focusing on a goal weight, which most often sets people up for failure. I then describe diet mentality and diet culture and encourage people to extricate themselves from this toxic way of life, sharing tips for how to do so. Learning to live life at a healthy weight for your body offers a much more joy-filled option! Let’s work on that together. Now, put on your seatbelts and let’s get into this week’s rant… I mean, content.
