    Why You Know What to Do… But Still Can’t Lose Weight (And How to Break the Cycle)

    Have you ever looked in the mirror and thought, “Why can’t I just get it together?” Why the starts and stops. Why the guilt after eating. Why the feeling that everyone else seems to figure this out—but you. Let me tell you something right now: you are not broken. This episode is an invitation. An invitation to stop fighting yourself and finally understand what’s really been running the show beneath your weight, your cravings, and your cycles of self-sabotage. In this episode, I share how my own journey—losing over 50 pounds and maintaining it—wasn’t about willpower, perfection, or another diet. It was about learning why I was being mastered by food, emotions, and habits… and how to break free with love instead of shame. We’ll talk honestly about: Binge eating and comfort eating (without judgment) Why self-discipline rooted in punishment never lasts How pain—not weakness—is often the real driver behind our habits And how grace, awareness, and simple daily rhythms can change everything You’ll hear pieces from The Wellness Revelation and the Habits of Health framework—but through the lens of real life, real struggles, and real women who are just trying to feel better in their bodies again. If you’ve ever said: “Nothing works for me” “I’m tired of starting over” “I just want peace around food” “I want to lose weight, but also heal” This episode is for you. This conversation also sets the foundation for The War On Weight Community—a space created so no woman has to do this alone. I’ll share how you can start with a simple 14-Day RESET to calm your body, reset your habits, and prepare for lasting change. This isn’t about winning a battle against your body. It’s about learning how to fight for yourself. 🎧 Press play. 🛡️ Armor up. 🤍 Let’s finally win this—together.       Let's CHAT!   Other Resources from this Episode: Jane Pilger- EXPERT Binge Coach The Body Revelation Book by Alissa Keeton

    Stop Starting Over in January: Holiday Habits That Work

    Sister—listen to me for a minute. You do not need to white-knuckle your way through the holidays. You do not need to start over in January. And you definitely don’t need another all-or-nothing plan. You can survive the holidays—and even feel good doing it—by sticking to simple health habits. This quick holiday episode is here to help you stay grounded, nourished, and in control during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and every gathering in between—without missing out on the joy. Because let’s be real… you’re busy. So we’re keeping this simple and doable. Here’s what I want you to focus on: 💧 Hydration first. Start your day with 16 ounces of water—especially on holidays. Add 8 ounces with every meal. This alone changes everything. 🍽️ Don’t starve yourself. Eat small, balanced meals throughout the day so you don’t walk into the holiday table ravenous and out of control. 🤍 Remember what the holiday is really about. The food will be there—but the memories, conversations, and relationships are the real win. 🍴 Slow down and choose on purpose. Pause. Put the fork down. Savor a few bites. Every choice matters—not because you’re failing, but because you’re learning to care for yourself. 🎄 Have a plan if you’re going to multiple gatherings. Small meals at each, or choose different courses at different events. You’re allowed to decide ahead of time. 🥗 Get picky. Don’t eat something just because it’s there. Eat what you truly love and what serves your body well. 📏 Use a small plate and smaller portions. Three tablespoons or less of each item. That’s it. Enough to enjoy—without regret. 👖 Wear real pants. Not to punish yourself—but to stay aware. Yoga pants invite mindless eating. 🚰 Keep your hands busy. Water bottle in one hand, napkin in the other. This alone can stop grazing. 🍬 Chew sugar-free gum while cooking and after eating. Simple trick. Big difference. ✍️ BONUS (This Is Where the Real Change Happens) Journal every single day this week. Ask yourself: How do I want this holiday to feel? How do I want to feel next week? What would a win look like for me? What choices will help me honor the body God gave me? What am I truly thankful for—the food, or the meaning behind this season? Get it out of your head and onto paper. Clarity brings peace. Peace brings better choices. And when the holidays are over—if you find yourself ready for a RESET, I’ve got you. Join me in The War on Weight Community by starting with the 14-Day Reset. It’s the bridge between surviving the holidays and stepping into real, lasting change in 2026. 👉 https://thewaronweight.com/14dayreset You don’t need perfection. You need simple habits, grace, and support. And yes—you can do this. 💛
