Cece Olisa: Can I be Body Positive and still Lose Weight?
Manage episode 229813074 series 2300104
Episode Summary
Cece and I wade into what I would call a gray area in the body positive community, an area I myself have pondered on for a few months. After watching Cece’s video about a month ago where she shared her weight loss story and knowing she has always being vocal about body positivity, I knew we had to sit down for an episode.
Our goal is to shed more light on using the principles of Purpose Driven Self Care in a way that is empowering specifically for you without weight loss being the goal. Simply put, we can be body positive and not leave our health on the back burner. The two can and should go hand in hand.
Favourite highlights
- Plus size or not there are people who are unhealthy and healthy on every spectrum.
- My weightloss journey started with mental health, therapy, getting out of a bad relationship and a bunch of steps that had nothing to do with food.
- Two and a half years later, we’ve got some weight loss going on but that was the last change that happened.
- I will model body positivity every time I put food on my plate even if it is a cookie
