What does "non-scale progress" mean?
It means measuring health by things like strength, energy, sleep, and mobility instead of relying only on body weight as the sign that something is working.
Is Not About Losing anti-weight-loss?
No. Some readers want to lose weight and that's a personal choice. The site simply doesn't treat weight loss as the only valid goal or the only marker of health.
Do I need a gym membership to use this site?
No. Many articles focus on bodyweight strength work, walking, mobility drills, and habits that fit into an ordinary day without equipment.
Who writes for Not About Losing?
Hannah Mitchell, a sustainable-fitness and weight-neutral wellness writer, covers strength, mobility, habit building, and non-scale progress for the site.
