Today I have a fascinating conversation with Dr Anthony Balduzzi NMD. He is the creator of the Fit Father Project (and now also the Fit Mother Project). Over the past 10 years, he has dedicated his life to one thing: helping busy fathers  (and mothers) lose weight and build muscle to stay healthy for their families.

We have a great chat about the impact it has on families when parents start to take care of their health. Having both lost our fathers at a young age, we understand the priority that should be given to this.

In today's episode I ask why we get fixed on achieving a certain body weight. Is this the best thing to focus on? Should we look at other metrics like clothes sizes and so on?

In today's episode, I ask whether weight loss is the correct goal? Often people want to 'go on a diet' when they are already quite slim, because they've 'got a bit of a tummy' or are not happy with some other aspect of their body. I talk about what you could do instead.
