I worry we’re creating a whole new problem with GLP-1 weight loss…
And NO, the problem isn’t the medication
What worries me is watching “How healthy can I get?” slowly turn into “How skinny can I get?”
Because when the scale starts dropping, it is REALLY easy to get addicted to seeing that number get smaller.
But I don’t just care what you weigh.
I want to know:
Are you getting stronger?
Are you eating enough protein?
Are you protecting your muscle?
Are you supporting your bones?
Are your metabolic markers improving?
Do you actually FEEL better?
Because I’m currently at the lowest body fat percentage I’ve ever been… but I’m NOT at my lowest weight.
And I’m freaking proud of that.
I have more muscle now at 47 than I did when I weighed less.
That’s the direction I want to keep going.
And as a mom to young women, I REALLY don’t want us handing the next generation another version of the same message we grew up with:
smaller = better.
Use the GLP-1 if you need it.
Lose the fat if your health will benefit from it.
But PLEASE don’t forget to build something while you’re losing.
The goal isn’t to take up the least amount of space possible.
The goal is to be strong enough, healthy enough, and energized enough to take up ALL the space your life requires.
Send this to a woman who needs the reminder that the scale is only ONE piece of the story. And follow along if you’re ready to chase STRONG with me after 40.
