    Practice habit setting, not goal setting.

    Practice habit setting, not goal setting.

    This week I open up my journal and share 5 ideas I’ve been thinking about that are important on our journey to losing weight and keeping it off for good.
    Here are the ideas I do a deeper dive on…
    * Losing weight is hard. Keeping it off is harder.
    * Doing hards things requires us to do hard thinking.
    * The importance of choosing habits that are less vulnerable to disruption.
    * Behaviour is contagious, so who we surround ourself with matters when it comes to losing weight.
    * Why habit setting is more effective than goal setting.
    Here’s my suggestion.
    Listen to this while you are out on a walk. And bring a notebook with you to jot down anything that really resonates.
    Enjoy my friend!

    I set one resolution in 2022 and this happened.

    Here’s some quick back story.
    I have never been a big resolution guy, but in 2022 I set a single resolution. That’s it. just one.
    And that resolution helped me lose 15lbs.
    In today’s episode I share the…
    * discovery I made in 2021 that inspired my single resolution.
    * the book that inspired me to only focus on one resolution.
    * one resolution I am focusing on in 2023.
    It’s 28 minutes long. My suggestion is to listen to this while going for a walk, a run or a drive.
    When you are done, I want to you ponder the ONE THING you are going to focus on in 2023 to help you achieve your weight loss goals.

    Make this your only resolution for 2023

    Make this your only resolution for 2023

    2023 is fast approaching so in today’s show I am going to suggest you do something radically different to finally lose that weight you have so desperately tried to lose.
    And it doesn’t involve any of the usual extreme manoeuvres you are accustomed to like…
    * joining a gym
    * a bootcamp
    * a fast
    * a detox
    * or some other extreme unsustainable solution.
    Instead, I am going to suggest you find a weight loss mentor.
    We have them in other areas of life, yet we don’t have them in this area.
    And we should.
    It’s one of the fastest ways to learn so we can achieve long lasting success.
    In today’s episode I share the 5 critical boxes that must be checked when you are looking for your weight loss mentor.
    * Box #1 — Has a weight loss story that is similar to what you are looking to lose.
    * Box #2 — Has sustained that weight loss for at least 3 to 5 years and counting.
    * Box #3 — Has a methodology that would fit into the context of the life you lead.
    * Box #4 — Has a program based on principles not prescriptions.
    * Box #5 — Has a philosophy and values that fits with yours.
    I share some entertaining stories for each in my attempt to build my case for finding your weight loss mentor.
    Enjoy!
    To thinking greater than your emotions,
    Dean 🇨🇦

    The life-changing magic of habit bundling.

    The life-changing magic of habit bundling.

    Hey there,
    Welcome to another episode of The Psychology of Weight Loss.
    In today’s show I share the 3 habits I have bundled together that are largely responsible for my 43.8 lb weight loss success.
    * Habit #1 — Weigh myself.
    * Habit #2 — Log my foods.
    * Habit #3 — Stay within my calorie sweet spot (CSS).
    By sharing not only what I do, but why I do these habits, my hope is that you will steal these and begin incorporating them into your daily life.
    Why?
    Because weight loss follows habits.
    And these habits have created remarkable success for me.
    They will absolutely create remarkable success for you as well.
    To thinking greater than your emotions,

    Stop doing extreme things.

    Stop doing extreme things.

    Hey there,
    Welcome to another episode of The Psychology of Weight Loss.
    Today’s show is about the necessity of investing in reasonable habits vs radical ones.
    As a recovering radical junkie, I can tell you that radical solutions never work.
    Why? Because they…
    * are really hard to do
    * require a lot of time, energy and motivation to do
    * are not enjoyable
    * burn us out
    * do not scale long-term
    Ironically, by defaulting to reasonable solutions, I have been able to create remarkable results.
    Why? Because they...
    * focus on doing less to achieve more
    * are within our level of competence
    * don’t require a lot of time, energy or motivation
    * fit into the context of the life we live
    * are enjoyable
    * don’t burn us
    * get results
    * scale long-term.
    In today’s episode I share an example of a recent radical error I made and how I quickly corrected it.
    It’s me thinking out-loud so you can hear my thought process in terms of why I made the mistake and how I went about correcting it.
    Listen with a pen and jot down any mindsets, strategies and insights that you feel will be useful on your journey.
    To thinking greater than your emotions,
    Dean
    Ps. To all my awesome American friends, Happy Thanksgiving!!!
