Ditching the diet culture. There is more work to do.
“Doesn’t it get old??” Said the snarky message in my inbox… Does what get old?? “Posting about your “fitness journey” and talking about what you do as a coach all the time?” No and here’s why… ***drags out soapbox, clears throat *** Until women stop buying into the claim that a magic pill or spoonful of something or “waist shrinking” product, or try this powder and it magically blasts your body fat away, or “hide your cellulite with this product”… And until other women stop trying to dupe others by pushing garbage products that prey on others and continue to feed into the diet culture BS… There is more work…
