Where are you with weight loss?

Are you still searching the internet for the magical pill or solution?

When you’re trying to lose weight, there is a lot of noise.

“You should do this, you should do that. You shouldn’t do this and you shouldn’t do that.”

The noise is always there in the back of your mind along with worry, shame, and guilt.

This noise, this mental weight is the hardest part of the journey.

In this episode…

≫[1:14] Where are you with weight loss?

≫[3:16] The human experience is full of an arrange of emotions and experiences. Not all of them are good and not all of them are bad.

≫[6:05] This belief that you should be different is what’s keeping you stuck.

I remember leaving a Weight Watchers meeting and thinking I can’t do this anymore.

I remember feeling hopeless because I had done everything and couldn’t lose the weight and keep it off.

What do you feel when you hear hard work?

I bet your brain gets overwhelmed and then you don’t want to do anything.

In today’s episode of the podcast, Coach Jenn joins me again for part 2 of our 4-part series of All Things Weight Loss

We discuss the tools of weight loss, the good and the bad of those tools, and our perspective on it.

Tools such as diets, weight loss surgery, and weight loss medications are good for short-term weight loss.

The problem with these tools is that they don’t deal with the mental weight.

These tools don’t teach you how to deal with mental stress and how to feel your emotions.

They don’t teach you how to find comfort in other things and heal your relationship with food.

To lose weight long-term, you have to be able to do it in a way that you can for the rest of your life.

When you start to change the mental weight, you start to think something different and amazing things can happen.

In this episode…

≫[2:46] Diets focus on the food.

≫[4:42] Whatever you do, you have to be able to do it for the rest of your life.

≫[9:02] I had this need for emotional comfort...

In today’s episode of the podcast, I start a 4-part series on all things weight loss.

Coach Jenn joins me, and we discuss why most of us believe weight loss is hard.

I believed it was hard because I thought something was wrong with me.

I learned the physical weight was heavy, but the mental weight was the heaviest.

The mental aspect of weight loss is often overlooked but plays a crucial role in achieving long-term success.

It is possible for you to lose your weight, to lose the mental weight, and to do something different in easy and simple ways.

In this episode…

≫[3:57] Who I was.

≫[4:37] We get a lot of messages on social media that are fat-shaming.

≫[6:21] What mental weight is.

≫[10:31] Emotions fluctuate.

≫[10:55] I think women, we feel exhausted, we feel run down, we feel burnt out, and it’s not the physical part of it.

≫[11:37] The diet roller coaster is on and off.

≫[13:47] No matter what you weigh, the mental part of this, you have to do the work on.

≫[14:1...

Do you put things off? Do you tell yourself you can just do it tomorrow or some other day?

Today is the best day to start creating the life you want.

Don’t wait for tomorrow, take action now and make your dreams a reality.

In today’s episode of the podcast, I encourage you not to put things off and to do it today.

In this episode…

≫[2:04] We tell ourselves we have tomorrow.

≫[2:28] It’s so powerful when you show up for yourself.

≫[3:14] What are you craving today?

What do you feel when you hear hard work?

Do you react to life or do you actively shape it?

For many women, we stop creating our lives on purpose.

We don’t dream and curate the life we want.

We don’t think about what we want or need and as we age, we either think we’re headed towards the end of our life, or we start to light up.

Do you want your next chapter to be one that you wrote or are you going to let someone else write it?

It’s okay to want more.

It’s okay to create the life you want.

In this week’s episode of the Weight Loss for Successful Women podcast, I give you the questions to ask yourself so that you can begin creating your life on purpose.

In this episode…

≫[3:40] As we start to age, we do one of two things.

≫[5:25] I’ve learned that I get to decide what I want to believe, think, feel, and do.

≫[6:42] It’s so great to just pause, to plan, to create your life.

≫[7:37] Weight is a symptom of you wanting more for yourself.

≫[8:23] Start by asking yourself these questions.

We have stories that play in our heads that create the emotion of fear.

We have thoughts about what will happen if we lose weight, if we don’t lose the weight, and if we lose the weight and then gain it back.

These thoughts keep us stuck on the diet roller coaster. It’s important for you to find the story you’re telling yourself about weight loss because then you can understand why you’re feeling the fear.

If you want to learn what to do to release your fear and to change your thoughts, listen to this week’s episode of the Weight Loss for Successful Women podcast.

In this episode…

≫[1:40] They just stayed the same because of the fear of change.

≫[2:25] Understanding fear is important.

≫[3:45] Fear enhances our learning and our memory.

≫[8:17] It was my thinking, not the actual emotion of fear.

≫[10:55] What to do.
