episode 169: why gaining weight can be a good thing

Episode 169 of The Diet Diaries talks about something we don’t often want to talk about: gaining weight.

Can gaining weight be good? Why would we need or want to gain weight? Is there such a thing as good or bad weight gain?

Can you improve body image issues by gaining weight?

We are so brainwashed that weight gain is bad under any circumstances—and as always, that extreme, all or nothing thinking oversimplifies the complexity of being a human.

There are MANY circumstances where gaining weight is healthy and needed. So how do you know what’s right for you?

  • How to figure out why you’ve gained weight

  • The difference between ideal weight and best weight

  • The role of mental health

  • Situations/circumstances when gaining weight is normal

  • How your history with food and dieting fits in

  • How does gaining weight impact body image issues?

I’m taking on new 1:1 clients! Schedule a consult if you want to talk more about what’s been going on with you and how 1:1 coaching could support you to make changes around your relationship with food, body image, weight loss without dieting, behavior change and exercise.
