I keep meeting women who want to work with me but are waiting until they reach their goal weight. This breaks my heart because it's exactly backwards from what actually supports both wellbeing and goals. The research on weight bias is devastating: 69% of people cite doctors as the second most common source of weight bias. When healthcare professionals perpetuate the message that larger bodies are less deserving of care, women internalize this and think they don't deserve nice clothes. Here's the truth: if you're losing significant weight, you need interim clothes. Your silhouette almost never changes with weight loss, so the lines that flatter you now will continue to work. Suffering in ill-fitting clothes doesn't motivate - it undermines confidence. The biggest lie diet culture tells us about what to wear when losing weight is that you should wait until you're "worthy" of good clothes. But worthiness isn't something you achieve - it's something you already possess.
