Maintaining your weight isn't just a stagnant phase in your health journey; it's a powerful win that deserves recognition. I always say that there's a season of life when you're going to push and there's a season of life where you're just going to sit still. No one can be in push energy all the time.
We have just had to navigate the holiday period – and part of that might have included eating foods you wouldn’t normally eat or going out for meals with family. But it’s not a problem if that means the scale stays the same – and it’s certainly not a failure. In fact, it’s an integral part of living a balanced and fulfilling life.
In this episode, we look at why weight maintenance is a win that should be celebrated and why it’s so important to diversify our focus beyond the scale.
