Ep205. Health Metrics to Track Other than Weight with RD Laura Ligos

HEALTH METRICS TO TRACK OTHER THAN WEIGHT WITH RD LAURA LIGOS // In episode 205 of the Meal Prep Monday Podcast, Prep Dish founder Allison Schaaf talks with Registered Dietitian Laura Ligos from The Sassy Dietitian and discusses important health metrics to track other than weight for optimum well-being.
Laura has been a practicing Registered Dietitian for over ten years. She believes going over metrics for health other than weight is quite important to gain a picture of overall well-being and has discovered that though weight is often the outcome, the goal itself should be health.
Other important metrics to measure include sustained energy, improved brain cognitive function, good sleep hygiene, stress, performance, and symptoms (such as headaches and gut issues). The goal is to have a symptom-free life for higher quality health.
Laura recommends making protein your starting point at breakfast time and then suggests adding color to your plate. Some ideas include a homemade breakfast burrito, quiche, or overnight oats with protein powder. She often asks clients what they would want life to be like if their weight stayed the same. The answers to this question will decide the approach she takes in assisting her clients with their health goals.
