    Episode 355 – Dawn of the Dread Oct 28, 2024

    At Halloween time, dread is supposed to be part of the fun. But when it comes to exercise, dread is a major part of why we don’t do it. But where does that dread come from? This week, Catherine and Donald examine the origins of dreading a new healthy activity and give you some suggestions as to how to get over the dread and on with the movement. The chilling truth is that adults are responsible for their own habits. Plus, Catherine wants to un-read books, Donald introduces The Yolkening, and Agony Hill has cotton candy at the top.

    Episode 354 – The Snacks’orcist Oct 21, 2024

    At this special time of year, we are reminded that demons like to possess young people and make their heads spin around. Some people have demons from heck, while others have demons jn the form of snacks. Nobody knows what to do about demon snacks, do they? Catherine and Donald may have some suggestions. Based on an article from neuroscientist Alex Korb, Phd, the couple walk you through some ideas for using your brain to exercise excessive snacking from your life. Or better yet, work snacking into your life in a way that makes you proud of your choices. Plus, Donald is ganglialicious, Catherine has a bucket full of tricks, and the real demon is illiteracy.

    Episode 353 – Spirits of Halloween Oct 14, 2024

    This time of year striking a balance between werewolves and ghouls can get you. Similarly, striking a balance between working treats into your life and cutting them out all together can get you. Figuring out when to moderate and when to put a pause on certain foods and beverages is a tricky road to travel, and this week, Catherine and Donald are here to help. Planning, pivoting, portioning, and pausing are all options along the way. Plus, Catherine thinks love is disgusting, Donald needs a fainting couch, and we do not do well with willys or nillys.

    Episode 352 – Ouija Board Weight Loss Oct 07, 2024

    If you’ve ever used a Quija (trademark Hasbro) board, it can seem like the other person or people are moving the planchette around. It’s definitely not you making those choices. When we make impulsive food decisions, we WANT to feel like we’re not making those choices either. It was definitely the spirit world that made me eat that entire cake by myself. This week, Catherine and Donald talk about the importance of letting go of your magical thinking and really taking responsibility for your food choices. Really asking yourself what your choices are getting you and what they are costing you is an important step towards weight loss success. Plus, Donald thinks a violin playing chicken would make a good emperor, Catherine uses a metal detector powered by magic, and WOLT place is definitely not haunted.

    Episode 351 – The Fall Guy Sep 30, 2024

    If you’re like me, you thought the movie “The Fall Guy” was about a guy who loved the Autumn so much that he dedicated his life to keeping the Fall season in his heart all the year round. It turns out, that movie was about a stunt person in love with a Director who solves crimes for some reason. Have you ever thought about how cool it would be to have your own stunt person step in when your health and fitness gets hard? If you’re like Catherine and Donald, you’ve often wished for someone else who could do the hard parts when it comes to weight loss. This week, the couple help you to realize that you are your own stunt double, capable of facing any situation yourself. Plus, you can’t rely on Donald for textiles, Catherine reveals a shocking truth about churning your own butter, and lawyers gotta loy.

    Episode 350 – Mise en Place Sep 23, 2024

    Most of us know that French is virtually impossible to translate, but there are a select few who understand some of the words. Luckily, We Only Look Thin’s Catherine is one of those select few. This week, the couple talk about how the culinary process, “Mise en Place”, or “Putting in Place”, can help us to achieve weight loss and fitness goals. When we put the right habits and systems in place, it helps us do the things we say we want to do. Slow down, show yourself some patience, really observe your world, and ask yourself how you can make it easier. Plus, Catherine knows that the locals call it “French Land”, Donald doesn’t have time for a sense of calm, and the industrial revolution has taught us nothing.

    Episode 349 – Freaky Friday Sep 16, 2024

    If you’re like most of us, you’ve wished for a magical body transformation. To be granted a wish and to wake up in a brand new, perfect body. And you’ve probably promised that you’ve learned a lesson and you’ll always be good from now on if you can just be thin now. But if that really happened, would you know how to maintain that weight or would you celebrate with food? This week, Catherine and Donald talk about looking forward to maintaining your goal weight even as you work towards hitting that goal weight. You need to work on putting in place the skills, systems, habits, and behaviors in place to keep the goal weight you’re looking to hit. Plus, Catherine likes doilies and whisking, Donald tries to attract listeners from outer space, and the 1970s did not care about backstory.

    Episode 348 – Growth Spurt Sep 09, 2024

    We’ve all asked Mary, Mary quite contrary how her garden grows and she’s given us some story about using silver bells and cockle shells and pretty maids all in a row. That story doesn’t seem to check out. What effect do silver bells have on plant growth? What even is a “cockle shell” anyway? When you think about it, the right question should be, “how do I make my mindset grow?” You’ve come to the right place for answers. This week, Catherine and Donald talk about the importance of a growth mindset in achieving your weight and health goals and more importantly, how you shift your mindset in the right direction. You’re more capable of achieving difficult goals than you probably think. Plus, Catherine is jealous of everyone, Donald definitely doesn’t work for a sneaker company, and space-age water coolers really do exist.

    Episode 347 – Autumn Reset Sep 02, 2024

    Labor Day Sale?!? Pumpkin Spice?!? Halloween Decorations?!? Wasn’t the summer just getting started? If you’re like a lot of us, you entered the year with lofty goals for your weight, health, and fitness. And if you’re like a lot of us, things haven’t turned out how you’d hoped. It’s tempting as we head into the Fall to just put it all off until next year. This week, Catherine and Donald walk you through the habits that they are re-committing to this fall so that they don’t dig themselves into a deeper hole before next year. Go into the last part of the year in a way that you’ll be proud of. Plus, someone throws persimmons at Catherine, Donald eats a kiwi out of spite, and the couple gives you dobs, dabs, and dollops.

    Episode 346 – Bouncing Back on Track Aug 26, 2024

    Have you ever thought to yourself something like, “a positive attitude just means you’re not really paying attention to the word” or “these people need to get their heads out of the clouds and face that fact that they’re never going to get there”.? If you answered “yes”, you might need to work on your resilience. This week, Catherine and Donald talk about the habits of people who are able to take the bad with the good and use it all to achieve their weight loss goals. It turns out that you can cultivate a growth frame of mind. Like with many things, it takes developing habits and practicing them. If you’re so afraid of failure that you don’t try anything, you’re also not trying to succeed at anything. Plus, Catherine pays homage to an 80’s classic, Donald wants to be part of the sack lunch bunch, and none of this has anything to do with Lawrence Welk.
