Me when someone asks about weight loss coaching 👆
I don’t believe there’s anything wrong with being fat.
Your body is not a problem to solve. It’s not a before picture. It’s not a project that needs fixing before you’re allowed to feel good in it.
What is a problem is living in a world that treats people in bigger bodies like they’re less worthy—and then calls that “health.”
Because here’s the thing: health is not defined by your weight.
When people start moving their bodies, building strength, and actually supporting themselves, their health markers improve—cholesterol, heart health, strength, endurance—all of it. Weight change or not.
And on the flip side, being thin doesn’t automatically mean healthy. You can’t tell someone’s health by looking at them.
I also won’t ignore the harm that dieting can cause. A significant percentage of people who diet develop disordered eating, and eating disorders have one of the highest mortality rates of any mental illness.
That’s not theoretical for me. When I got into fitness and started tracking macros (like so many trainers recommend), I developed orthorexia—an obsession with “healthy” eating, that I dealt with for years before kicking food morality to the curb and finding balance.
So yeah—weight loss coaching is a no from me.
But if you want to get stronger, feel better in your body, and build a relationship with movement that isn’t rooted in trying to shrink yourself?
I’m all in for that. 🏋️♀️
