Think about how the pursuit of weight loss has affected your life.
"The fear of weight gain first comes from the idea that each individual has the ability to control and manipulate their weight to a certain specific number or range," Brenna explained. And even more, that it's a person's responsibility to do so; and not doing so or choosing not to is a personal failure. In reality: this is diet culture's failure, not yours.
Ask yourself where does your fear of weight gain come from? If we can put your desire for weight loss on the back burner, you can think about what you can do to take care of and support your body today, instead of constantly needing to wait to be size X first in order to live your life. How can you make yourself feel more comfortable and confident today? If your behavior is centered around changing the size or look of your body, you can miss out on the many other benefits of healthy behaviors, like eating foods that nourish you and taste good and moving in a way you enjoy.
