Ep 188| BMI & Your WEIGHT-The lies we've been sold & the Truth we need to know

BMI. Three small letters that have shaped how women see their bodies for decades. But what if everything you have been told about this number is incomplete or even misleading?

On today’s episode I take you back to where BMI truly came from, how it quietly became the global standard for defining “healthy weight” and why it was never designed to judge the health of individual women in the first place.

We break down the science, the flaws and the harms. We talk about the pressure so many women feel when they are told they are too big or too small based only on a calculation that does not measure body fat, muscle mass, hormonal shifts, ethnic differences or metabolic health.

Most importantly, I show you what to focus on instead. Because real health goes far deeper than height and weight and when women understand their bodies better they make informed choices that support long term health, strength and healthy ageing.

If you have ever been defined or discouraged by your BMI, this episode is going to give you clarity, confidence and a new perspective that frees you from the limits of a single number.
