Weight management

What is weight management?

It’s important to remember that a healthy weight (BMI) alone cannot reflect a person’s health, and that for many people, this weight cannot be achieved or, more importantly, maintained over the long term. That’s why we prefer to work with the principle of natural weight.

Natural weight: A weight range programmed by genetics that can be reached by adopting healthy lifestyle habits and developing a healthy relationship with food, the body and physical activity, and that can be influenced by a number of factors (pregnancy, age, medication, etc.).

Artificial weight: Obtained through dieting culture by restricting (not meeting the body’s needs) and/or exercising strictly in order to control weight. Very difficult to maintain over the long term.

You can’t control the number on the scale over the long term, but you do have a great deal of power over your lifestyle and, consequently, your health.
