Forget Target Weights: Embrace Healthy Living with Vicky Midwood
“If you can maintain a kind of a range, if you like a target range, then you're never going to be miles away from feeling your best and it's never going to be a massive, massive challenge or a massive chore, if you like to, to get back into the excellent shape that perhaps you want to be if you're out on holiday or in a swimming costume or going to an event.”
Weight goals can often feel like the ultimate measure of success, but Vicky Midwood has a different take. In this episode of 'RAW CHATTER!', she challenges the common belief that setting a 'Target Weight' is the best way to achieve health and happiness. Vicky explains how social conditioning and diet programs push us towards these goals, but they might not be as helpful as we think.
Instead of fixating on a specific number, she advocates for maintaining a healthy weight range that feels right for you. It’s about how you feel, not just what the scale says. She dives into the importance of exercise and hydration in weight management and emphasizes the need for self-compassion. By the end of this chat, you'll understand why letting go of rigid weight targets can make your journey to health simpler and more sustainable.
Vicky's straightforward, science-backed advice aims to make lifestyle changes easy and effective. Tune in to discover a more compassionate and practical approach to your health.
