**Voices from my Bunker 2020**

“Voices from my Bunker 2020” is a series of interviews with all ages of people of what 2020 has been like for them. This is a rebranded podcast that used to be named, “PODSNACKS/Art of the Diet” but the first six months of 2020 has shifted my preoccupations from five years of weight maintenance to minute by minute sanity maintenance. Attention must be paid to the issues before me. I’m 75, live in Massachusetts, and my doorbell hasn’t rung in 3 months and probably won’t until there’s a vaccine. My hair has its own zip code and I look like the Unibomber when captured in his Montana cabin. None of which interferes with my ability, thankfully, to ask questions over a Skype connection. I’ll be recording interviews until the election on Nov 3, 2020. If he is reelected, look only for my obit.

RESIST Carbs and Hate. PODSNACKS ART OF THE DIET EP.168 Aug 07, 2019

Show notes

RESIST (Carbs and Hate) is the word of my day and the weeks to come of weight management. Sometimes, you don't understand why the old habits don't seem to work but passivity is not the conclusion. Resisting passivity is the only next step. That's where I'm at in weight maintenance and the state of my country. Resist CARBS and HATE.

WithKindnessBeginAgain.PODSNACKS/ArtoftheDiet 167 Jul 03, 2019

Show notes

There was a time when reading or listening to someone suggesting that I treat myself with a bit more kindness would have been met with severe eye rolling. By "there was a time", I mean as recently as last month and I’m 74. But, today's episode highlights what has turned my deep eyerolls into acceptance and more importantly, even doing it. Breathe in. Breathe out. With kindness, begin again. Dieting, Living, closing your garage door. it simply goes better with a little kindness. It's the eve of Independence Day in the US. www.artofthediet.com

Your Car Knows How Much You Weigh_PODSNACKS/ArtoftheDiet 166 Jun 05, 2019

Show notes

Episode 166: Your Car Knows How Much You Weigh. A spokesman for the Auto Association let that cat out the bag. I thought it should have led the news cycle. And, a connection with meditation practice and weight management that does not involve 10-15 minutes of meditation with a body scan. Just thinking about being kind to yourself today. Just think it.

People Who Know Everything. PODSNACKS/ArtoftheDiet Apr 03, 2019

Show notes

"People Who think they know everything are a great annoyance to those of who do." Isaac Asimov This podcast offers up what I know (for sure) about weight maintenance in an aging body: you have to eat less whether by choice or anxiety, eating less is the fundamental way to maintain a significant weight loss. It's not exercising more to maintain it is eating less to maintain. Telling the truth is not a marketing strategy these days and I don't just mean politics. But, here's a truth I made into fabric: "If chocolate isn't the answer, could you please repeat the question?" www.artofthediet.com www.patcoakley.com

Begin, Again-PODSNACKS/ArtoftheDiet163 Mar 06, 2019

WORRYING ABOUT WEIGHT FOR HALF HER LIFE. PODSNACKS/ArtoftheDiet Feb 06, 2019

Show notes

Lorne has spent half her 45 years worrying about her weight. Her great aunt, though, spent more. On her death bed, at 92 years old, she told Lorne, “Well, at least, I’m losing a little weight.” Lorne is determined not to spend the rest of her life worrying about this issue and the looping ride of the rollercoaster of weight gain and loss. She does not belong to a national weight loss program but is seeking out new ways to understand her issues and to deal with them. www.artofthediet.com email: artofthediet@gmail.com
