You're not the celebrity or the Instagram influencer who said you are you, and what's really important is that we just shed all this bullshit that there's a way for you to get healthier, for you to lose weight or optimize your health, or whatever, because there's not this a way. There's a way for you, but there's not a way for everyone.
Have you ever wondered why some people seem to stay the same weight no matter what they eat? In this episode of 'Middleish', hosts Erin Green and Michael Gray tackle the intriguing concept of Set Point Theory. This theory suggests that each person has a natural weight range where their body feels most comfortable, making drastic changes to this range quite challenging.
Erin and Michael dive into the science behind why our bodies resist weight change, even when we try to manipulate it through diet and exercise. They explore the factors that influence our set point, such as genetics, hormones, and lifestyle choices. The hosts also discuss how stress, sleep, and overall well-being play crucial roles in maintaining a healthy weight. Rather than focusing solely on calorie counting and restrictive diets, they advocate for a more holistic approach to health.
By understanding and accepting your body's set point, you can develop a healthier relationship with food and your body. Throughout the episode, Erin and Michael share practical tips on how to work with your body's natural tendencies rather than against them. They emphasize the importance of self-acceptance and highlight the pitfalls of diet culture.
If you're tired of the endless cycle of dieting and want to find a sustainable way to maintain your health, this episode offers valuable insights and encouragement. So, if you're curious about why diets often fail in the long run or how to achieve a balanced lifestyle without extreme measures, tune in to 'Middleish'.
Let Erin and Michael guide you through the fascinating world of Set Point Theory and help you embrace a healthier, more accepting approach to your body and well-being.
