The More Mindful Podcast

BONUS 3: Did you lose weight for your wedding?

In this episode, Julia shares her personal journey of body acceptance and the complexities of dieting... especially in the context of preparing for her wedding (that JUST happened on Saturday, October 5!!!).

She discusses the challenges of prioritizing weight loss amidst life changes and social events, emphasizing the importance of understanding your 'why' behind dieting. 

Julia reflects on the mental and emotional costs of weight loss, advocating for a focus on maintenance and self-care instead. 

She also touches on the Health at Every Size movement, encouraging listeners to redefine their goals and celebrate health progress, beyond just weight loss.
