• Beyond the Scale - Many people focus on weight as the key measure of health, but the scale has its limitations. When we say we want to "lose weight," we mean that we want to lose excess adipose tissue (fat), while maintaining or building our muscle - essentially we want to improve our body composition.  Another key health goal is to optimize our metabolic markers and lower our disease risk - and just being "skinny" does not always mean your disease risk is low.  In this lecture, Sara shares ways to measure health and provides tips for how you can think beyond the scale to improve your body composition & lower your disease risk.
