Gaining 15 lbs and Wanting to Lose Weight: An Honest Chat

EP540. In this vulnerable solo episode, I open up about my history with weight and body fluctuations, and how it’s showing up for me right now. After seeing a photo of myself recently and not even recognizing the person in it, I did something I’ve never done before: I bought a scale. I’ve gained about 15 pounds in the past year, and I’m sharing honestly about my decision to make some changes! I talk about how it feels almost taboo to admit that you want to lose weight these days (am I going to be cancelled?), and the mindset shifts I’m working through as I focus on my health and wanting to feel my best. I also break down the simple dietary changes I’m making and yes, I get specific with numbers, including how much I used to weigh, what I weight now, and what my goals are. If you’ve ever felt conflicted about your relationship with your body or guilty for wanting to make a change, this conversation is for you! Learn more about your ad choices.
