    "It's not like I need a cookie because I had a crappy day" With Chelsea

    When I first met Chelsea, it became apparent that she was eating for all sorts of reasons: boredom, busyness, wanting to avoid a task, having a lousy day, because someone offered her food, because someone else wanted a chai latte and she didn't want them to partake alone, or because she was tired or because she was upset. Do any of those sound familiar? If you are thinking, "Yep, that's me." I want you to listen carefully to this real life session with Chelsea.  Tune in to hear how Chelsea has been on a journey from emotional eating to making empowered food choices. You will hear how she navigates cravings, identifies her needs, and makes conscious decisions without depriving herself. We also discuss practical tips for managing treats, the importance of breaking the cycle of 'shadow comforts', and how to stay mindful during special events. If you're wondering whether people are actually able to change or if people just have these sort of emotional eating issues for the rest of their lives, the answer is yes. But don't take my word for it, you can hear it from Chelsea herself.

    One Plate, No Grazing — Phyllis’ Real Life Session

    Small steps come before big ones, but nobody wants to start with small steps, do we?  In today's real life session with Phyllis, we'll discuss how breaking down habits into smaller, manageable parts can lead to success and why celebrating even the smallest wins is crucial.  Phyllis has been working diligently on her habit of overeating at dinner. We've talked about what it feels like to get satisfied, and we've tried tracking each time she stopped eating her dinner before she had over eaten, but it wasn't getting checked off all that often. (That happens sometimes!) During the call, she reflects on her progress, her upcoming trip to Norway, and navigating her emotional and psychological state without relying on strict diet rules.  Get ready for real-life examples of navigating overeating, grazing, and emotional eating while moving towards healthier eating habits.

    Why We Don't Talk Much About Willpower

    "If only I had more willpower, then I could stop overeating sweets...exercise more...and finally lose weight!"  These are common beliefs amongst those who have struggled with their health goals for a long time. So you may have wondered why we don't talk much about "willpower" on this podcast. Today we are going to address why we don't promote it as a primary weight management strategy.  The truth is, willpower is limited and finite in nature, and one's belief in their willpower capability can greatly impact their behavior. Instead, we would like to introduce you to concepts we prefer and find more helpful and empowering. We also discuss the importance of engineering your environment and leveraging social support to make healthier choices easier.  If you want to manage your whole state, strengthen your self control, and create a supportive environment for long-term healthy eating habits, then we hope you join us for this episode!  👉 Related episode: "What Happened To My Self-Control?"

    Who Wants to Be The Biggest Loser Anyway?

    You may have seen the recent three-part Netflix documentary Fit for TV: The Reality of The Biggest Loser. The series revisits the hit show The Biggest Loser, which framed weight loss as a competitive transformation journey—often emphasizing dramatic physical change over sustainable health. The documentary dives into the tension between creating captivating television and protecting the wellbeing of participants. In today’s episode, we share our reflections on the series, our critiques of weight loss competitions, and why we believe shows like this perpetuate fat stigma. We’ll also talk about constructive, compassionate alternatives for achieving lifelong health habits (hint: it’s about much more than pounds lost). If you’re a regular listener, you won’t be surprised when we circle back to the importance of supportive, sustainable health journeys. We’ve heard many people say, “I need someone to be the food police or screaming in my face for me to lose weight.” If you’ve ever felt that way, we invite you to listen in—we’re challenging that belief and offering a more empowering path forward. Did you watch The Biggest Loser or the Netflix documentary Fit for TV? We’d love to hear what you think. Was it fair? Was it ethical? Should there be safeguards for participants in shows like this?

    Chelsea: Being Overly Busy Helps...Kind of

    We are back this week with another call with Georgie and her client Chelsea. In the last two weeks, Chelsea has made noticeable progress with managing her treats intake (something with which she has struggled in the past). One big reason for this change in her eating habits is constant busyness. Together, we explore the impact a packed schedule can have on eating habits and discuss finding the balance between enjoying social treats and feeling deprived. We also touch on navigating partner support, easing back into exercise after illness, and planning for healthier eating during travel. If you could use some support in shifting from busyness-driven eating habits to a more balanced and satisfying approach, that is our specialty and we'd love to talk!

    Why Weight Regain Happens (It’s Not Just Willpower)

    Why is it so easy to regain weight after losing it? You follow the plan, you see the scale go down, your clothes fit better, and then somehow the weight comes back. The worst part about weight regain for some people is that it  feels like a personal failure. But in today's episode, we are here to tell you the truth: weight regain is a biologically and psychologically driven response. Not a sign of a person being weak, lazy, or lacking willpower. Join us as we break down a recent research review published in the Journal Nutrients (see The Interplay Between Psychological and Neurobiological Predictors of Weight Regain: A Narrative Review). You will learn how self-efficacy, emotional regulation, and traits like impulsivity, perfectionism, and dichotomous thinking play significant roles in weight maintenance. Discover practical strategies for boosting self-control, managing stress, and employing flexibility to achieve lasting success.  We also explore how brain activity and hormonal changes impact weight and discuss the benefits of cognitive behavioral therapy and medications like GLP-1 receptor agonists. Whether you're beginning your weight loss journey or focusing on maintenance, this episode offers insights to help you succeed in the real world. 00:25 The Struggle of Weight Regain 01:36 Psychological Factors in Weight Maintenance 05:31 Emotional Regulation and Weight 09:24 Biological Factors in Weight Regain 16:24 Strategies for Long-Term Weight Maintenance 22:01 Conclusion and Support Connect with Georgie and the Confident Eaters Coaches:  WebsiteFacebookGeorgie's Instagram Christina's Instagram Have you ever thought, "I know what to do, I just need to consistently do it"?
