As we look toward 2026, my hope for obesity care isn’t about innovation alone.
It’s about alignment.

The science has moved forward. Our understanding of obesity as a chronic, biologically mediated disease is clear. Yet too often, care delivery, coverage, and public narratives lag behind the evidence.

In the year ahead, I hope to see continued progress toward:
– Consistent, evidence-based care across settings
– Equitable access to treatment and follow-up
– A shift away from weight-centric, moralised messaging
– Systems that support long-term management, not episodic fixes

Much of this work is already being championed by organisations like Obesity Canada, whose leadership in guidelines, education, advocacy, and stigma reduction continues to move the conversation forward in Canada.

Meaningful change in obesity care won’t come from asking individuals to do more.
It will come from building systems that do better.

Christmas isn’t just a day.
It’s memories. Laughter. Family. Quiet moments. Traditions.
And yes… food shared around a table. 🎄🤍

If this season brings joy and a little anxiety about eating, weight, or “staying on track,” we want you to hear this:

✨ One meal doesn’t define your health.
✨ One day doesn’t undo your progress.
✨ And you don’t need to earn rest, celebration, or connection.

Your body doesn’t know it’s Christmas.
But your heart does.
And both deserve kindness.

So today, we hope you:
🍽 Enjoy without guilt
🤍 Listen without judgement
🎁 Give yourself the same compassion you give others

From all of us at Modest Medix,
Merry Christmas. May this season bring warmth, peace, and gentle care for yourself — exactly as you are.

Follow for evidence-based, compassionate support for your health journey.

Holiday tables come with food — and commentary.
Most of it is unnecessary. Some of it is quietly harmful.

What makes these statements tricky is that they’re often said with “good intentions.”
But intention doesn’t erase impact.

Weight is not a casual topic.
For many people, it’s tied to health conditions, medications, trauma, years of stigma, or ongoing treatment. Turning it into dinner conversation — even indirectly — can activate shame, pressure, or silence.

This season, the most respectful thing you can do is simple:
Let people eat (or not eat) in peace.
Let bodies exist without analysis.
Let health be private unless someone invites you in.

If you’ve ever left a table feeling heavier emotionally than physically — this post is for you.

Every year, I hear the same thing:
“I’ll start in January.”
“I’ll be serious in the new year.”
“I’ll do it properly in 2026.”

As if your body knows what year it is.

But biology doesn’t reset on January 1st.
Your hormones don’t wait for a fresh calendar.
Your nervous system doesn’t care if it’s a holiday, a Monday, or the end of the year.

What does change is the story we tell ourselves.
That change must be clean.
That it must start on the “right” day.
That starting now somehow doesn’t count.

So we wait.
And while we wait, patterns continue.
Stress still signals.
Hunger still signals.
Sleep still matters.

This isn’t about pushing harder or starting over.
It’s about remembering that your body doesn’t need a deadline to deserve care.

📌 Save this for the moment you catch yourself waiting for a date your biology never agreed to.

Ever notice how easy it is to hit snooze on your alarm…
and just as easy to hit snooze on your health?

Most people don’t quit their weight journey.
They pause it.
Again.
And again.

The reasons always feel reasonable in the moment.
The impact shows up much later.

This reel breaks down why we do this — and what actually helps us move forward without guilt or all-or-nothing thinking.

🎥 Watch the full reel for the analogy that usually makes people pause.

WILL EXERCISE REALLY HELP YOU LOSE WEIGHT? 🤔

The answer might shock you, because it's not what you might expect 👀

Watch the reel to know!

Don't forget to follow for more insight on what REALLY helps you lose weight.

You’ve probably heard at least one of these — maybe from friends, family, or even well-meaning coworkers.

None of them are true.

And when you’re trying to lose weight, these comments don’t motivate you.
They shame you.
They make you doubt yourself.
They make the journey heavier than it already feels.

Here’s what the science (and years of clinical work) actually say:

✨ Obesity is a chronic, relapsing, biologically influenced disease
✨ Weight loss is not a willpower test
✨ Support matters
✨ Treatment matters
✨ Your environment, hormones, sleep, trauma history, medications, and stress all influence weight
✨ You are not failing — the advice you were given failed you

If you’re on this journey, trust evidence, not opinions.

And above all, trust yourself.
Your story, your body, and your biology deserve better than one-liners and judgement.

Cheat days?? Let's talk about them.

Watch the reel to know the truth behind those cheat days we all take.

10/28/2025

If you lost $50, would you throw away your entire wallet?
Probably not.

So why do we treat our health and weight journey that way?
One missed workout. One slice of cake. One night out — and suddenly, we act like all progress is gone.

Perfection isn’t the goal. Consistency is.

Watch the reel to hear us explain this powerful mindset shift. One that can change how you approach every “slip-up.”

It sounds like science fiction… but it isn’t.

It’s 2025 now — and 5 years from today, you might walk into a restaurant, scan your gene blueprint, and be served a meal designed specifically for your body.

A burger with the exact amount of iron, fat, and protein your genes need, and none of what works against them.

That’s the power of nutrigenomics. The science of how your genes interact with food.

This isn’t about trends or calorie counting. It’s about understanding how your body actually processes nutrients, fats, and carbs based on your DNA.

And while it might sound futuristic, it’s already here.

At Modest Medix, we use Nutrigenomix testing as part of our comprehensive weight-loss program.
It’s a simple genetic test that reveals how your body responds to key nutrients, exercise, caffeine, and more — giving you a personalised blueprint for your metabolism and health.

Because weight loss isn’t about restriction — it’s about precision.

And the future of obesity care is personal, preventative, and powered by science.

📍This is Part 1 of our Nutrigenomix Series — where we’ll break down what it is, who it’s for, and how it can transform your approach to weight management.

Follow to stay tuned.
