In this episode I debunk the lie that the fitness industry teaches about discipline being the key to a successful transformation and how that philosophy has kept dieters on a hamster wheel for years.   Every frustrated dieter wonders why they can't just be more disciplined. They wonder why they can start off strong in the morning and the wheels inevitably fall off later that night.   Generic dieti...

In this episode, we had the pleasure of interviewing two-time client, Rachael, a registered dietician. After losing weight using the strategies in 75 Hard, Rachael knew she was barely hanging on by a thread and couldn't maintain the extreme restriction required that caused her to lose the weight.   At one point, her husband expressed concern about her dieting behaviors and feeling backed into a co...

You know those annoying people who can eat whatever they want without gaining a pound?   Meanwhile YOU can't even smell a chocolate chip cookie without sending the button on your pants flying across the room at lightning speed?   It's maddening, isn't it? I used to be so jealous of these people...until I became one.   But how? Doesn't being a 'naturally thin' person require you to have the metabol...

WELP!   It's finally here. The moment we've all been waiting for…   Okay, maybe it's not the moment YOU'VE been waiting for, but it's definitely the moment I've been waiting for!   Today, I'm making good on a promise.    I invited three former clients to share their experience on Ozempic (or similar GLP-1 weight loss medications) and the conversation gets juicy!    What are their side effects? Do...

Do you know what the absolute stupidest thing most people do that keeps them unfit is?   I mean the absolute LITERAL dumbest thing that can keep you from accomplishing any goal.   It doesn't matter if you want to get rich; it'll keep you poor. Want to lose weight? This will keep you fat. Want to be in a relationship? This mistake will keep you single.   Here's the thing about this blindingly stupi...

In this week's episode of the Outsmart Overeating Podcast , I respond to a client's email who is beginning to recognize that she had inherited outdated, unhelpful beliefs that caused her to self-sabotage.   Due to her family history, she internalized a negative narrative about the women in her family being doomed to be fat, especially after having children and ageing. This belief was so deeply roo...

If you're you've ever said:   "I don't know when I'll get to eat this again."   "I need to eat all of this now because tomorrow it's back to the diet!"   "I'll get back on track on Monday."   This tells me you're someone who struggles with the "all-or-nothing" mindset. Unfortunately, when you have this thought pattern, it makes consistency nearly impossible to achieve. And consistency is essential...

What most dieters don't realize is that their quest for weight loss has more to do with feeling 'not good enough' and less to do with losing pounds.   What they TRULY want is access to the life that they think is waiting for them on the other side of weight loss -- more dating prospects, more respect, more confidence, more clothing options, etc.   It's not about the weight itself. It's about havin...

This week on the Outsmart Overeating Podcast , I discuss an urge to eat when you're not physically hungry and what to do with it when it happens. In my psychology-based weight loss program,  Unstuffed , we refer to this as "mind hunger" and it's rooted in an emotional need not being met. Once you've come to grips with being an emotional eater, it's important to have a process to begin working thro...

Once you've come to grips with the concept that all overeating is rooted in having an emotional experience, you'll need to learn how to work through them in a healthy way that doesn't involve stuffing them down with food. In two decades of coaching, I've never had a client tell me they're comfortable sitting with their emotions when they surface — their coping mechanism is almost always a distract...

Your relationship with exercise (or as I like to call it, movement), is just like your relationships with food... difficult and confusing to navigate.   You may be thinking, "Why? I love exercising! It makes me feel incredible. It's my stress reliever!" And that may be true, it can be super rewarding and enjoyable. It can make us feel strong, empowered, confident and appreciative of our bodies.  ...

Have you ever noticed how everyone in the diet industry sounds the same? Everyone wants you to eat more vegetables, get more sleep, drink more water, and exercise more.   I don't disagree with this advice, but here's the problem – it's surface level advice. It's what the 95% are doing and it's why you're in the Defeated Dieter stage.   This is why you're feeling stuck and frustrated while circling...

Is there anything more frustrating than knowing EXACTLY HOW TO LOSE WEIGHT, but not be able to do it? You've read the books, you've listened to the podcasts, you've purchased the gym membership, and you've bought the program, but yet you STILL can't do it.   WHY does this happen? It's maddening!     For starters, it has nothing to do with information. In today's podcast episode, I discuss the prim...
