Can You REALLY Eat What You Want and Still Lose Weight? Jun 06, 2024

Show notes

After a lifetime of hearing that you have to eat healthy or low calorie foods to lose weight, or you have to give up carbs or fats or desserts to lose the weight you want – well, overthinking menopausal women like you are understandably skeptical when my answer to the question of “Can you REALLY eat what you want and still lose weight?” is unequivocally “Yes, you can.”

When I was preparing for this week’s episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, I went back into the Pahla B archives to watch a Masterclass I had put on about eight or nine months ago. I knew I had made a couple of points in that class that I wanted to share with you on the podcast, but I had honestly forgotten just how useful and actionable the whole class was.

So today, instead of just sharing a few points from that Masterclass, I’m sharing the entire thing, including the viewer Q&A at the end, which was super valuable as well.

And let me give you a little heads up. While I was in the vault, I found a couple of other Masterclasses I’m excited to share with you, too. So, over the next three weeks, you can enjoy these longer episodes that get super in-depth on the weight loss mindset topics you care about most.

Today’s Masterclass was recorded last fall, and it’s all about how to navigate “eating season” while you’re losing weight. Enjoy!

Four "Diet Thoughts" You Can Let Go Of Today May 30, 2024

Show notes

I know you’ve got ‘em, because everybody has “diet thoughts.” In your head, they make so much sense and they sound so true. But not only are these thoughts not true, they’re holding you back from losing all the weight you want. So today, we’re exploring four “diet thoughts” you can let go of right now.

Letting go of your unhelpful thinking is a piece of the weight loss mindset puzzle that often gets overlooked.

And I get it. I mean, it’s so much more pleasant to write affirmations to yourself on your mirror or to make gratitude lists or count your blessings or celebrate your wins. Everybody wants to feel good. Me, too.

But skipping over the yucky parts of your journey isn’t doing you any favors. In fact, not releasing your diet thoughts is the exact reason you’re either struggling to lose weight right now or the culprit behind why you’ve gained and lost weight so many times in your life.

As long as you continue thinking “diet thoughts” you’ll continue being on a diet.

Are you ready to let them go? Let’s dig in!

Every time you weigh yourself, you’re feeling frustrated and doubtful. At the end of the day, you’re looking at your numbers and wondering why you’re even bothering. It just seems like you’re standing still.

So you must need to change your calories, right?

GOALfriend, I feel you on a deep, soul level. But instead of continuing to spin around and around with the question, “Should I change my calories?” on this week’s episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, I’ve got four even better questions to ask yourself.

3 Tips For Consistent Weight Loss May 16, 2024

Show notes

It’s so frustrating to watch the constant up and down on the scale, isn’t it? You just want to lose weight consistently! Well, on today’s episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, I’m spilling the tea, with three tips for consistent weight loss.

It’s true that weight loss never moves in a direct, straight line down, but you can achieve a continuous, consistent downward trend over time.

The key?

Understanding the body-based inputs you have complete control over (calories, water, sleep schedule, and exercise), and managing your mindset.

The trick with those body-based inputs is that they are virtually impossible to follow through with consistently, unless you’re managing your mindset first. This is why I’m a mindset coach, and why the three tips I’m offering you today are all about mindset.

When you’ve got mindset, you’ve got everything you need to get your goal. So let’s dig in!

Which One of These 3 Things is Keeping You Stuck? May 09, 2024

Show notes

I’ve worked with thousands of menopausal women over the years, and every single one of them has gotten stuck at some point on their weight loss journey. Thankfully, getting stuck isn’t random, nor is it permanent. Today, I’m sharing the universal places everybody struggles, so you can figure out which of these three things is keeping YOU stuck.

I truly believe that the reason we human beings set goals for ourselves is to learn something deeper about our human experience. And the way we learn whatever it is we need to learn is by being challenged.

Struggling. Getting stuck.

And it’s my mission in life to help you, not just struggle less, but to see the struggle and the stuckness as opportunities to learn something about yourself, and to love, trust, and respect yourself even more because of it.

Why (and How!) I Stopped Dieting May 02, 2024

Show notes

Of course you want to be done dieting because who wants all that restriction and anxiety? But you’re also pretty sure you have to diet to lose weight after menopause. Thankfully, you don’t have to feel like you’re on a diet at all. So today, I’m sharing exactly WHY and HOW I stopped dieting, while I was losing weight for the last time in my 50s.

Feeling like you’re on a diet is optional, and the truth of it is that you’re far more likely to be successful at losing weight and maintaining it for life when what you feel is amazing.

So, today I’m sharing four ways I used to feel like I was on a diet and exactly what I did to stop dieting and start loving, trusting, understanding, and believing in myself instead.

Are you ready to set yourself free from the worry, frustration, judgment and restriction of dieting? I’ve got you covered. Tune in and let’s go.

The 12 Biggest Weight Loss MYTHS, Debunked Apr 18, 2024

Show notes

There’s a lot of information out there about weight loss for menopausal women, and some of it is straight-up wrong. To help you separate fact from fiction, on this week’s episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, we’re debunking twelve of the biggest weight loss myths, plus of course I’ll share the real facts so you can lose all the weight you want and keep it off forever.

Your body and your brain are always always always working together, so any weight loss advice that doesn’t address your mindset isn’t giving you the complete answer.

Second, and this is almost the same point, but in a broader context, weight loss is never about one thing.

Which means that any advice that purports that weight loss is driven by one singular factor – like eating during a specific window of time, or eliminating a specific type of food, or exercising in a specific way – is incomplete.

The simple science behind weight loss is that it’s driven by three things, in this exact order: 1, believing that you can, 2, eating in a slight caloric deficit over time, and 3, lovingly supporting your menopausal metabolism.

So now that you know the facts, let’s get to the Twelve Biggest Weight Loss MYTHS, so we can debunk those suckers!

What To Do When You're Not Losing Weight Apr 11, 2024

Show notes

When you’re not losing weight it’s almost never because of your calories. And yet, that’s the conclusion we all jump to immediately, even though changing up your calories is more likely to slow you down than speed you up. On this week’s episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, I’m sharing three important things to do (that aren’t changing your calories) when you’re not losing weight.

Weight loss is a long game, and it’s driven by three things, in this exact order: number one, believing that you can, number two, eating in a slight caloric deficit over time, and number three, lovingly supporting your menopausal metabolism while you do numbers one and two.

Fiddling around with your calories (number two) before you address the belief piece (number one) is kind of like trying to read a book in a foreign language when you don’t even know the alphabet yet. Sure, you can make guesses, but it’s unlikely that you’ll make sense of the story.

Imagine jumping into the deep end of a pool when you don’t believe that you can swim. You’ll just thrash around and, at best, tread water, instead of gliding smoothly to the other side.

You absolutely, positively, must take a look at your mindset – your beliefs – before making adjustments to your calories, so that you don’t find yourself splashing around and not making progress toward your weight loss goal.

This is why the three things to do when you’re not losing weight that I’m sharing with you today are all mindset-focused – so you can swim like a champion and read novels with ease.

No, I’m joking.

I’m showing you how to change your mindset so you can lose all the weight you want after menopause and keep it off forever.

4 Reasons You’re Not Losing Weight… Yet Apr 04, 2024

Show notes

You’ve been working on losing weight for a while, but you’re still not seeing the results you want on the scale. It feels super frustrating to put in all this effort and not be making any progress. So, why aren’t you losing weight? And what can you do about it? On this week’s episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, I’m sharing four reasons why you’re not losing weight … yet.

Before we get into it, make sure you really take the time to hear the last word in the title of this episode: yet.

While it may or may not be true that you’re not losing weight right now (and we’ll talk about how that might not even be true in reason number four!), your current weight loss progress is not an indicator of your future success.

Because the simple formula for permanent weight loss is this: Step One, believe that you can lose weight. Step Two, eat in a slight caloric deficit over time, and Step Three, lovingly support your menopausal metabolism while you’re doing Step One and Step Two.

Right now, there’s a really good chance that disbelief is lurking in every corner of your brain. It’s not just the thought, “I don’t believe I can lose weight” that’s stopping you, though that’s definitely one of the most common mindset blocks I hear.

But there are other ways that disbelief shows up in your life and, notably, on the scale, that we’re talking about today. These four reasons you’re not losing weight YET, are your ticket to uncovering your disbelief mindset blocks, so you can bust through them.
