In this episode of Optimise Your Body, I share my personal take on the controversial topics of body positivity and fat acceptance. In a recent Instagram video, I voiced my belief that while everyone deserves acceptance, promoting obesity or an unhealthy lifestyle may not be beneficial. I'll delve into my perspective on the health risks associated with obesity and its potential impact on happiness. But, let me be clear – my approach is driven by compassion, as my goal is to help people improve their health and lives, not to judge them. This episode is a deep dive into a complex issue, offering valuable context and fostering open dialogue on differing viewpointsTimestamps:0:00 - Introduction to today’s episode. 0:40 - Body positivity movement and fat acceptance 3:11 - Promoting healthy body image vs. disease promotion4:52 - Body image, self-acceptance and true happiness9:14 - Obesity’s impact on mental and physical health11:26 - Self-care, body positivity, and the impact of health on personal and professional success16:55 - Empowerment and weight loss20:00 - Emotional eating and escapism through food and alcohol25:42 - Body image and self-talk28:24 - Body positivity and fitness goals31:00 - ConclusionSubscribe to the OYB email newsletter below and get your FREE Training & Nutrition Plan:https://mailchi.mp/1fe353b57501/level-up-7-day-challengeReady to become our next success story?
