The Diet Diaries

Can the scale improve your body confidence?


Listen Later

Episode 140 of The Diet Diaries is all about the scale and why it plays such a massive a role in our body confidence and body image insecurities.

We’ve learned to rely on the scale for all measures of progress around health, wellness, body confidence and even self esteem. We let the scale dictate our mood, influence what we eat and how we exercise and until it feels like a chokehold on our entire life. 

Today’s episode is unpacking how and why this happened  and what to do about it:

  • What does the scale actually measure?
  • How to use the scale in a way that’s helpful instead of harmful
  • What to expect when you are using the scale to measure progress
  • What impacts scale weight
  • How to assign less meaning to the number you see
  • How to know if you need to work on your relationship with the scale
  • The most important skill to separate emotions from the scale


As always I share my personal experience with the scale, what finally helped me find peace with it and how I find my own body confidence.
