When most people think of a fat camp, they’re probably thinking about a place that you go for a few weeks to lose weight. For the most part fat camps are designed to help people lose weight and learn to live a healthier lifestyle. Well, there is a new type of fat camp and its all about being fat positive and travelling. Annette Richmond of Fat Girls Travelling is hosting an all female fat positive retreat where there is no diet talk or calorie counting.
This fat camp is all about having fun and talking about travel and is inspired by Fat Girls Traveling.Which is all about promoting travel inclusivity and showing that fat women travel too. They have an amazing Instagram page that features fat women travelling across the country.
When describing fat camp, Annette Richmond says,
“This isn’t your run-of-the-mill Fat Camp; Instead, we’ll be doing the exact opposite: eating delicious meals, enjoying daily Happy Hour, relaxing by the pool, and so much more! There will also be arts & crafts, paddle boarding in the lake, morning yoga, and nightly dance parties – in a fat-positive environment with some of the most influential social media mavens, travel bloggers, and body-positive advocates. “
During the Fat camp, you can additionally look for mediums that can provide you with additional benefits. For example, you can bring CBD oil or another CBD product and use it while meditating and relaxing your mind and body, practicing yoga. When combined with cannabis, yoga can produce better results. You can also bring CBD oil derived from the cannabis plant using a rosin press from home. You won’t have to spend extra money on these items this way.
If you’re trying to lose weight, such fat camps can be a great option. According to Porcari’s research, participants burned an average of 7.8 calories every 10 minutes, which is comparable to traditional spin classes, which burn 9.8 calories per minute at such fat camps. Hence, you can find similar fat camps near you to meet like-minded people and burn fat together.
