When we focus on weight rather than health, people are not treated as thoroughly and are sizist and you can be healthy at any size.
Have you ever felt trapped in the endless cycle of dieting? Liv and Tiffany tackle this all-too-common struggle in their podcast episode 'Why Diets Don't Work'. They dive into why traditional diets often fail in the long run, leaving many people gaining back the weight they initially lost. But it's not just about the numbers on the scale; it's about the harmful effects of focusing solely on weight loss.
Liv and Tiffany highlight how the healthcare industry's obsession with weight can lead to inadequate treatment and stigmatization, sharing poignant stories like Ellen Maud Bennett’s final message about fat shaming and Laura Fraser's account of her sister's misdiagnosed cancer due to weight bias. This episode isn't just about critiquing diets; it's about offering a new perspective on health.
The hosts discuss the importance of long-term health interventions that prioritize overall well-being, such as regular exercise, stress reduction, and finding a supportive medical provider. They also touch on the impact of diet culture on our relationship with food and advocate for gentle nutrition and listening to our bodies. If you're tired of the diet rollercoaster and ready to embrace a healthier, more holistic approach to well-being, this episode is a must-listen.
Liv and Tiffany provide not only eye-opening insights but also practical advice for breaking free from the weight loss trap.
