Episode 250: 5 Reasons You Lose Control Around Treats (And How to Stop)
Do you ever feel out of control around certain foods?
Maybe you can’t keep cookies in the house because you’ll eat the entire box within a day or 2.
Maybe when you do allow dessert into your house you intentionally eat the whole thing just to get rid of it so you don’t have to deal with that nagging voice in the back of your head that’s constantly pushing you to go back for more.

Episode 248: Making Peace with Food with Mindful Eating
When I say “mindful eating” or “listen to your body” what’s your instinctual response?
I know for a lot of people their knee jerk reaction is, “My body wants cheetos and ice cream at every meal, so I don’t think you want me listening to my body.”

Summary
Do you ever want someone to just freaking tell you what to eat? What's good? What's bad? What's allowed? What's not?

Summary
I've said it before and I'll say it a thousand more times...
In the game of health and weight loss, your mindset will fuck you up more than a cheat day ever will.
How you speak to yourself, how you perceive setbacks, how you think about obstacles, and what you focus on is the difference between you taking another step forward or quitting.

Summary
Does this sound like you, "I know what to eat, I know how to exercise, I just can't stick with it!"
If so, you are not alone. Consistency is probably the single biggest thing women are struggling with when they come to me, and it is the single most important thing if you want results.
But when talking about consistency, almost every woman I know says, "I just can't stay motivated long enough."

Listen in!
Summary
- According to US News & World Report, the failure rate of New Year's resolutions is about 80%. Plus, majority of those who fail will have lost their resolve by mid-February!!
- Why do I think failure rates are so high? I think it breaks down to 3 problems:
