Dr. Tabatha Barber argues that hating your body blocks weight loss in menopause. The shift from self-criticism to self-compassion, she says, is what actually works. You can't heal a body you hate.
But we're over here going, you failed us. You suck. You're so fat. You're so ugly. And it's like, that's not at all what's happening. So if you can flip the script and be like, why are you doing this? What do you need from me? And just talk to your body in a loving way, you can really start to shift things. And there are ways to avoid weight gain after menopause. Like, I have a whole program based on that and everything, but you can't heal a body you hate.
