No Wellness Wankery

63: So you want to lose weight? Let's chat. (Part 3)


Listen Later

Lyndi doesn't often talk about weight loss, although it's something clients frequently approach her about. The reason? Trying to lose weight often makes you more obsessed with food, making it harder to be healthy. Plus, pursuing weight loss doesn't actually lead to weight loss.

However, she isn't against you losing weight. She is against you trying to lose weight.

It's a subtle but oh-so-important difference. Weight loss is fine. But don't aim for it. Don’t slay your body, don’t compromise your well-being in order to lose weight. Let it become something that happens as a side effect of making healthier choices.

There is a way we can have a healthy conversation about the desire to lose weight and we are tackling it in this 3 part series. If you haven't listened to episodes 1 & 2, jump into those first so you have the background for the thinking around this nuanced topic.

In part 3, let's look at what Lyndi is actually doing and implementing into her new mother-of-two life. It is time for the practical strategies for achieving a stronger and healthier body without dieting.

Remember the relentless pursuit of weight loss often leads to an unhealthy obsession with food, making it even harder to feel good. Let's do the opposite.

For more support, read Lyndi's book 'Your Weight is Not the Problem'. It’s been ranked #1 on Amazon in women’s health for 10 weeks straight, and for good reason. You can buy it wherever all good books are sold or get the audiobook. Get the deets and access to a free audio sample HERE.
