The Performance Plate Podcast Unweighs Weight Loss

Obsessed with the scale but getting nowhere? You're not alone. In this episode of the Performance Plate Podcast, we delve into the science and psychology of using the scale for weight loss.

We explore two key studies:

The Emotional Rollercoaster: We examine another study that reveals how the scale can impact your mood. For some, regular weigh-ins can be a source of discouragement, while others find it empowering.

The key takeaway? It all comes down to purpose and expectations.
