Here's something the toxic diet culture doesn't want you to know: you don't have to exercise to lose weight. I lost 200 pounds with zero exercise. I know that diet and exercise have been touted as the magical weight loss cure. But you absolutely do not have to exercise to lose weight.

In today's episode, I'll talk about why the whole diet and exercise thing is a myth, why you don't have to exercise to lose weight, and how to focus on movement and building muscle in different ways.
