Ep. 54: Say goodbye to the weighing scale and celebrate your NSVs (non-scale victories)
Description
In this solo episode of Your Mindset Matters, I talk all things weighing scales. I chat about the obsession that many people, especially women, have with the scale. I want to empower you with knowledge and confidence rather than fear!
With fluctuating weights caused by hormones, diet, and stress, it's easy to misinterpret true progress. I stress the importance of focusing on how you feel and celebrating non-scale victories (NSVs), such as improved mood, energy levels, and how your clothes fit.
I also talk about the difference between scale weight and body fat loss!
Make sure to listen to learn how to develop a healthier mindset toward weight, learn how to prioritise overall wellness and embrace the journey!
