Today, we are discussing weight loss and weight management. This is one with relatively universal application as we all would love to optimize our weight for a number of reasons. The potential benefits and upsides of maintaining a healthy weight are clear to all of us, so why is it often challenging for us to hit our ideal weight goals? To give us a better understanding of the problem and potential solutions, our expert for this topic is Tara Schmidt M.Ed., RND, LD. She’s the lead dietician for “The Mayo Clinic Diet” and host of the “Mayo Clinic On Nutrition” podcast.
The three big questions we are working through with her are:
- What is weight loss, and why is it such a universal and important goal?
- Why do so many of us struggle with weight loss despite our greatest efforts?
- What practical strategies can individuals implement to set themselves up for success?
