If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything right — eating better, moving more — but the scales still don’t move… it could have a lot to do with how well you’re sleeping and how stressed your body feels.To learn more, I’ll talk about: -What happens to your body under stressWhat happens when you don’t sleep enoughWhat can you do about stress and sleepHere are the links to the weight loss resources, as mentioned at the end of the episode: -NN-PCN Weight Management page - https://www.newcastlenorthpcn.nhs.uk/clinical-topics/weight-management/Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent Integrated Care System (ICS) Weight Management information and practical resources - https://staffsstokeics.org.uk/local-weight-management-services/

If you’ve ever said that to yourself — or felt frustrated because you “gave in” — I want you to know: it’s not just about willpower.And it’s certainly not about being weak, or lazy, or not wanting it enough. I’ll talk about: -Why it feels like willpowerWhat’s really happening in your bodyWhy shame and blame don’t helpWhat you can try insteadHere are the links to the weight loss resources, as mentioned at the end of the episode: -NN-PCN Weight Management page - https://www.newcastlenorthpcn.nhs.uk/clinical-topics/weight-management/Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent Integrated Care System (ICS) Weight Management information and practical resources - https://staffsstokeics.org.uk/local-weight-management-services/

Beyond the Scales is an 8-part podcast created by Carrie Eckersley, the PCN Dietitian, for patients in our Primary Care Network who are living with excess weight. This series aims to overcome these barriers and help you achieve your goals.There are 8 Episodes, with one bonus episode to support you going forward. All episodes are under 5 minutes in duration and are designed to be practical, honest, and emotionally sensitive.The Podcasts cover key topics such as:The real-life factors that affect weight (e.g. stress, sleep, shame, support)What NHS services are availableHow to start making sustainable changes without pressure or guiltThe tone is warm, respectful, and accessible, reflecting the PCN’s commitment to person-centred care.We know many people living with excess weight avoid appointments, feel judged, or don’t engage with services.We also know that shame and stigma are barriers to health, not motivators.This podcast is for anyone who wants to understand more about how weight and health connect — without shame, without pressure, and without being told to “just try harder.”
