Self Care For Weight Loss

Self Care For Weight Loss

Rounding out our Weigh it Out series is part 4 focusing on self care—I’m not talking about lotions, potions, serums, hot tea, pedicures, and bubble baths. While those things have their place, the bottom line is that many of us treat ourselves terribly, and we can absolutely do better.

We may treat ourselves poorly by eating junk, wearing old/frumpy clothes, refusing to look at our bodies in the mirror, or saying mean things to ourselves. And this needs to change.

Exercise is More than a Tool for Weight Loss

In part 3 of the Weigh it Out: Caring for Your Body in 2021 series we’re looking at exercise. Whether you love it, hate it, or somewhere in between, you’ve probably exercised at some point. In addition to a ton of reasons to move our bodies that have nothing to do with weight, we can use exercise to develop meta-skills. If we learn how to exercise for the purpose of feeling good on a regular basis, then we can take that skill and apply it to other things in our lives.
