Diet culture and cementing habits

Happy podcast day! Excited to be here. In today's episode we answer a few questions from the DMs. We had a tricky one come through which was: how do I ignore diet culture when I really need to lose weight? In answering this question we somehow find ourselves talking simultaneously about habits to help cement regular exercise, but also swing back to diet culture and what we can do to silence it (can we even? I don't think so). While we certainly don't have the answers and our chat takes a lot of twists and turns, we hope that somewhere in here there's something useful. Please know that we come from a place of encouragement and support and a) if you have weight loss goals they are valid and b) it's okay if you're in an exercise/health funk and it just isn't a priority or c) you'd prefer no reference or air time to weight loss at all (we'd therefore recommend not listening). It's a tricky subject but we understand people like to hear our thoughts, so, listen on unless it's bit of a triggering chat. Eventually, we circle back to pre-Christmas, with Leece taking to socials to talk about giving to the kids at Christmas and parameters around that, and naturally, we go to the kids and phone use; how and what she's navigating there. Again, as per the diet culture and weight loss chat, know that we are only sharing our personal experiences and lifestyles and come with no judgement if what you do is different! Thanks for listening. Love being back on the pod!
