Hey JJ, could your weight loss obsession be doing more harm than good? I think an obsession with weight is a major issue, and that's why I want you to ditch the scale and focus on what that weight is made up of. If you're taking muscle-first approach to health instead, where you're focusing first on how do I get stronger, how do I put more muscle on, inevitably that's going to help you have a better metabolism and better health and age powerfully.
