A new weight loss mindset is critical to navigating the shifting sands of midlife. Just eating less or in moderation might not work for us like it used to, and it's important to understand why.
Instead of sticking to old ideas, we need to rethink how we approach food and weight loss. Let's talk about the myths that hold us back and discover the truths that can help us move forward.
Starting with a new weight loss mindset is key. We can find better ways to take care of our bodies and manage weight.
So when the doctor says, "Start with the mindset," believe it. It's true.
