202 - Unlearning: Why You Should Question Your Identity And Mindset Sep 22, 2023

Show notes

So much of weight loss is unlearning old habits, beliefs and patterns. When we come into it with our old baggage, its hard to learn new things— our old beliefs are rock solid. When we're able to drop our old identites, like, "It's hard for me to lose weight", "I've never been able to do this", or "Why does this have to be so hard?", we allow for a new space of learning and growth.

201 - Stressing About Weight Loss: Why You Need To Partner With Your Nervous System Sep 15, 2023

Show notes

One of the things that will make weight loss the most difficult for you is stressing out about it. Feeling panicked, overwhelmed, and just overall approaching it with a stressed out mindset. Our bodies are in fight or flight when it comes to this "emergency" that we need to solve. This is a great way to self-sabotage beause it effects every decision you make. If we can learn to partner with our nervous system, losing weight will become a much more peaceful process.

195 - Q&A: Setting Weight Loss Goals With Deadlines, Improving Sleep Aug 04, 2023

Show notes

A few more questions today...

I heard you ask someone if the goal they were using to motivate them was adding more stress or not. The persons answer for them was it wasn't. I feel like my goal is stressing me slightly. Like what if it comes and I haven't reached the goal I've been wanting? How can I reframe this so it's not stressful. My goal was to lose my weight by my bday. Maybe I should get coached:)

Hi, you post about you're sleep a lot and I'm honestly jealous! Any tips for falling asleep and staying asleep?

194 - Decision Fatigue: Making Weight Loss Easier By Making Decisions In Advance Jul 28, 2023

Show notes

I went on a trip last week and realized I didn't plan that much, which resulted in not being super pumped with my food decisions. I kinda ate things by the seat of my pants. Had I planned I probably would have made different decisions, and this got me realizing the power of reducing decision fatigue and how that impacts our food choices... even on vacations.

193 - Q&A: Urge To Binge At Every Meal, Negative Body Image Despite Success Jul 21, 2023

Show notes

Today we're taking a few questions...

How to overcome the urge to binge eat every meal? The title almost says it all. I can go for hours with no food, but once I start eating it is as if my body says: do it, f'ing do it
Long story short: this is my 4th big weight loss, so far I went from 335 to 219 pounds. My goal is around 135 lbs, so I have a long way to go. On one hand, it's amazing that after so many failures to maintain the lost weight, I still try lol. And it's amazing that I'm now 116 pounds lighter. It's easier to walk, breathe, go up the stairs etc. But sometimes when I look in the mirror, I get so frustrated and upset with how I look. I'm still obese as per BMI (I'm 5'8). And I feel the problem is that there is a disconnect between how my brain thinks I should look after losing 116 pounds and how I look in reality, if that makes sense. On days like this I just want to say to hell with it and stop all efforts and get back to my uncontrollable eating.
