I'm not anti-calorie counting. But I am anti-calorie counting when you're trying to heal your relationship with food.   Why?

There's a lot of misunderstanding behind the idea of permission-based eating. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Eating what you want, when you want, in as much quantity as you want can be very scary for someone who isn't familiar with the process. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In today's solo episode, Tony explains the process from start to finish, what you can expect as you go through it, why there's nothing to fear, and how permission is...

You'll hear why these labels keep you stuck and what you should be doing instead.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If this episode is helpful, consider lea...

🟡 Many times we truly believe the scale is helping us, when in reality, it's the very thing keeping us stuck. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ How can that be when most of the periods in your life when you experienced weight loss were correlated to you using the scale? Or worse, when most of the periods when you gained weight were associated with not weighing yourself? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ With experience after experience like th...

Life, and being a human being, is not easy. We have floods of emotions and stresses to deal with. Some of us cope with these feelings and stressors in healthy and productive ways, but many of us don't know how to and are turning to food instead. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In today's solo episode, Deanna coaches a listener through the questions "Why am I inexplicably overeating sometimes, and how do I stop?" You'll...

🟡 We've all felt that initial spark of motivation to change our lives only to have it burn out days, weeks, or months later. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It leaves us frustrated, disappointed, and confused, because we were so sure this time would be different, yet we end up right back to square one time and time again. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Motivation is a very real thing that needs to be cultivated so you can sustain healthy...

Much of your food issues aren't going to be solved within the "sphere" of nutrition. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In other words, eating issues aren't always fixed by focusing on food.

Feeling anxiety over what others think of you and your body can be debilitating.

🟡 A lot of people want to ditch calorie counting and start eating more intuitively but are afraid of gaining weight and hating their body even more. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It's a valid concern. It's easy to see pictures on social media of people who have gone through the process and have gained 20, 50, or even 100 pounds, and let that turn you off to the process. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But not everything you see is a fair...

🟡 You know the ritual - come into the office, get weighed, share your symptoms or get a regular checkup, and then be told you need to lose weight. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Not exactly a recipe for an enjoyable experience. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In fact, many people who are struggling with their bodies are hesitant to go to the doctor to get the help they need because they don't want to feel shamed over their weight. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀...

Wanting to lose weight shouldn't be something you're ashamed of. We all have our reasons for how it would improve our quality of life. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But too many people approach weight loss the wrong way - leading to a lifetime of weight cycling, disappointment, frustration, and further ingraining of ineffective habits. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In today's solo episode, Tony explains the problem with the weight loss...

If you're struggling with controlling your portion sizes, trying to force yourself to eat the "right" amount is never going to work. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Forcing control is an artifact of a dieting mindset, and is not a long-term solution. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In today's solo episode, Deanna will answer the question "How do I accomplish portion control?" so that you can get to the root of the problem and eating the "ri...

🟡 How much you eat isn't determined by a calorie budget - it's a side effect of your relationships with food, body, exercise, and mind. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Sure… you can willpower your way through your body's built in regulation system in the short-term. But if you have a poor relationship with food, no amount of intentional calorie restriction will be maintainable in the long-term, which means "progress"...

And getting to a place of more body acceptance can dramatically improve your eating, exercise, and every other part of your life. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In today's solo episode, Tony breaks down the 4-step process fo...
