  • A Scale Moment: Getting Back To Normal After Travel
    Aug 28 2024

    Questions, comments? Shoot me a text.

    What if you could maintain your healthy habits even while traveling and avoid the guilt of post-vacation weight gain? In this episode of the Simplicity of Wellness podcast, I share a personal story about my husband's reaction to gaining some weight after a trip, emphasizing the difference between short-term dieting and a long-term body balance approach. We'll explore how to focus on positive shifts toward normalcy rather than expecting immediate results and discuss various ways to monitor these shifts beyond just the scale, such as changes in physical appearance, gut feelings, and appetite. Patience is key, and context matters greatly when it comes to returning to your balanced, healthy routine.

    We'll also dive into the importance of tracking and aiming for high-end numbers on a scale to gauge body balance and positive changes. Achieving a perfect 10 is rare, and what's more important is recognizing an upward trend rather than a constant increase. This awareness tool can be invaluable both at home and during travel, helping you make better choices without being overly strict. Enjoy your travels guilt-free and return to your healthy habits with sustainable boundaries in place. Plus, I'll share tips on reflecting on your day to help you become leaner, stronger, and healthier without overhauling your entire life. Don't miss out on this insightful episode!
