The RLB Weight Loss Podcast

One thing everyone seems to have in common when is comes to weight loss is a lack of patience. We all want weight loss to happen yesterday and not tomorrow. I was exactly the same over the years. In this episode I discuss the reasons why we are so impatient when it comes to weight loss and why, if we want to have a successful weight loss journey, we need to change that mindset. Need some help and...

Emotional eating, in my honest opinion, is the biggest cause of obesity and I feel it was the driving force for me reaching 37 stone. To have a successful weight loss journey we have to get that emotional eating under control. In this episode I discuss my own emotional eating journey, the root cause of it, future triggers and how I have tackled it on my journey. If I hadn't of done what I have...

A successful weight loss journey is not built on doing something for a couple of months, 6 months or even a couple of years. It is about changing things and habits in your lifestyle permanently. All the things i discuss in this podcast I put into my lifestyle 10 years ago when I started my weight loss journey and they are still ever present today. Need some help and support on your journey then co...

The New Year's resolutions are in full force and the most common one out there is weight loss. January, February and March are three great months for weight loss but don't fall into The January Syndrome trap. Something I learnt when I started personal training full time. We can optimise our weight loss in these months but nothing major should change from what we normally do. If you want ex...

One of the biggest things that led me to sticking to my weight loss journey was understanding you need to have some weight loss breaks here and there. We have been told that you need to sometimes take a break from weight loss to trick the body as it adapts to you losing weight. That is nonsense. In this episode I will discuss the REAL reasons why weight loss breaks are important and the timing of...

When I started my journey in 2014 I wanted to lose weight in a totally different way. A way that I had never tried before. The first time I was referred to a GP regarding my weight some 30 plus years ago I still remember what GP telling me and my mum I needed to go on a calorie control diet. I never did or never thought I did go on a calorie controlled diet so that was something I put into place.....

Fisrt thing a GP said to me about my weight was I needed to go on a calorie controlled diet. this was back in the 80s yet the education around calories is abysmal. Obesity is an epidemic and the only thing that affects our body fat levels is energy balance. Comparison of the calories we consume with the calories we burn. In this podcast I am going to discuss all you need to know about calories! Ca...

When it comes to our weight loss journey we are too black and white when really we should be grey. We always strive for perfection whether that be never going to eat a takeaway or chocolate again or trying to go to the gym 8 times a week. As soon as we break that perfect notion we set out we quit. Why do we do it? What aim for perfection or quit at the first hurdle. A number of reasons which I wil...

In this episode I discuss the affects of hitting the sauce on a weight loss journey. No science based evidence, it is all from my own experience of how alcohol has affected me on my weight loss journey. I have though worked with over a 1000 clients the last few years and my own experience does seem relative to quite a few others so hopefully it will be to you as well. If you need further help on y...

Expanding on you can eat what you want and lose weight but that doesn't mean you should. A little correction this is a follow on from Episode 10 not Episode 11 that I said in the podcast. In this episode I look at how we should look at food and the ratios we should take on board to not only be healthy and fuel the body correctly while losing weight but also have that little bit of balance to s...

I became a personal trainer in May 2018. Since then I have worked with over a 1000 clients in various ways and a common trend I have noticed is as people get older their weight increases. Another common trend is my older clients seem to find weight loss a little trickier than my younger clients. In this podcast I discuss why I feel this is and the main reason for me might not be one you have thoug...

Over the years we have developed very unhealthy relationships with food. Part of that unhealthy relationship is labelling certain foods that make us fat and certain foods that make us. This mindset has led to immense guilt when eating foods that we deem to make us fat. But is this the case? In this episode i discuss how food affects us getting fatter or thinner and how what we eat can affect our w...

That naughty sad step aka the scales which tend to make us more unhappy than happy on our journey. Scales measure our weight, they don't measure our fat. I believe if we fully understand how the scales work and what the number on there can truly reflect, it will make your journey a much happier one. In this podcast I am going to talk to you exactly how the scales work and what makes them go up...

Obesity, certainly in the UK, has become an epidemic. Yet in the grand scheme of things just a short amount of time ago in the Uk it wasn't an issue at all. So what has happened. The points made in this podcast are simply from my own personal point of view to why I feel obesity has rocketed throughout the latter half of the 20th century in to the 21st century. You may also feel that some of th...

In this episode I am going to discuss the reality of why we end up with a weight issue. Most of us think we have a weight issue because of a poor diet and poor portion control. Now don't get me wrong eating to many calories is why we gain body fat and if those calories are unhealthy then it's going to be much easier to eat too many calories. The thing i want to get into is what is driving...

What diet are you on? Calorie deficit? You won't be saying that soon. The words calorie and deficit are all over social media nowadays with regards to losing weight. In this episode I am going to discuss exactly what a calorie deficit is and tell you the difference between that and a diet or what I like to call 'a weight loss method'.

It was a big mindset change for was seeing my weight loss journey as long term thing not a short term thing. I mention this twice in the podcast that we see weight loss as very cut and shut for a number of reasons but we have to change that mentality. A long term problem will always require a long term solution.
