The Psychology of Weighing

Weight doesn’t tell you what you’re made of!

In the pursuit of health over weight, there are some steps that healthcare providers can take to minimize negative impacts and optimize outcomes in their patients. Providers can help patients see what they are made of when they shift focus away from weight, BMI and certain clinical practices and adopt those that help patients see changes in their emotional state, physical functioning, health parameters, and changes in their body composition.

 

This webinar will cover:

  • Brief history of weighing
  • The birth of weight bias and stigma
  • Clinical tips to integrate into counseling
  • Better, more sophisticated tools to approach conversations and individualize care plans


After this Webinar you will be able to:

  • How aging and obesity impact muscle health, including the role of inflammation and cognitive decline.
  • Effective assessment, measurement, and discussion techniques for muscle health in older adults with obesity.
  • Evidence-based strategies for goal setting and improving muscle quality and function during weight loss and maintenance, considering age, weight, health, and quality of life.
