The Stubborn Scale: Exploring Strategies for Overcoming Weight Loss Resistance

Far 2 Fabulous

Ever felt like the scale is your nemesis, no matter how hard you try to make peace with it? You're not alone, and we're here to shift that battleground to a place of holistic wellness and self-discovery. Join us, Julie and Catherine, as we unravel the complexity of weight loss resistance and redefine what it means to be truly fabulous. Weight loss isn't the destination; it's the scenic view along the journey to a healthier you. We're debunking calorie-counting myths, over-exercising fads, and exposing why BMI might just be telling you fibs about your health. And let's not forget, we dive into how your emotional landscape could be the unexpected contour affecting your body's map.
This episode is an expedition into the body's secret dialogues — how stress and emotions can translate into physical imprints like unwanted pounds or a sluggish metabolism. Discover the untold story of adrenal glands and their critical cameo in this narrative, and why your muscles deserve a standing ovation for their role in keeping your metabolic rate on a standing ovation-worthy performance. We're also lifting the curtain on the weight loss industry's obsession with cardio and why strength training deserves the lead role. Gut health, hydration, and fiber? They're the supporting cast you never knew your body needed for balance and wellness.
Finally, we're turning the spotlight on you — yes, YOU — and the importance of self-awareness in your wellness routine. We share our personal insights on maintaining a truthful food diary and confronting the aging myths that have us believing movement should slow down as we get older. We navigate through the post-COVID landscape that has rewritten our routines and stress the celebration of movement in its diverse and beautiful forms. So, if you're ready to embrace a life where fabulousness is measured beyond the scale, subscribe and join us every Thursday morning to step into your power. Let's make every step count together.
