    How To Get Past "This Will Never Work"

    Have you ever had a day when your brain just takes off without you? One minute you’re feeling pretty good about your food choices, and the next you’re spiraling because the scale didn’t move, or you ate a handful of chips? Maybe you’ve actually been doing fine and even had some good wins, but your brain finds the one thing that wasn’t perfect and decides that this’ll never work. And you catch yourself thinking, “What is wrong with me? Why can’t I just stay consistent?” Your brain isn’t broken—it’s just doing its job. That it’s actually trying to protect you, even when it drives you off course? Today we’re diving into what it means to be at the wheel of your brain. why your brain automatically looks for problems,  how to handle those “old stories” that pop up again and again,  and how to steer your thoughts on purpose so you can keep moving forward with confidence. You’ll learn how to spot those old mental habits before they steer you off course, how to use them as signals instead of setbacks, and how to choose thoughts that move you forward instead of spinning your wheels in frustration. So buckle up, because today we’re not letting your brain ride shotgun. You’re in the driver’s seat. Let’s go! https://confidentbody.coach/tips/ BOOK: You Are A Miracle

    How to Be a Normal Eater When You Still Want to Lose Weight

    Have you ever thought, “ok I get the whole normal eater thing and I want to be a normal eater... but I still want to lose weight”? Like, you’re totally on board with the idea of dropping diet rules, but you also don’t want to drop your goals? You want to trust yourself and see the scale move, but part of you still wonders, “Can I really have both?”  Because it feels like the moment you start caring about the number on the scale again, you’ve somehow betrayed your new, chill, “normal eater” self. Or on the flip side, if you don’t think about weight loss, you worry you’re giving up on your goals. And that can feel confusing. It’s like your brain doesn’t know how to want progress without turning it into another diet. So how do you find that middle ground — where you’re not obsessing, but you’re also not pretending the scale doesn’t exist? If that’s where you are right now, this episode is for you.  This episode is the sister episode to our last one, “How to Go from a Dieter to a Normal Eater.” In that episode, we talked about the shift from following rules to making choices — how the big difference isn’t about food, it’s about how you think about food. You learned that dieters follow rules, while normal eaters make choices. how normal eaters think about food, how they handle overeats, and how they make maintenance feel livable. Today, we’re building on that. Because once you’ve learned to eat like a normal eater, the next question becomes, “How do I keep that mindset while still wanting results?” In this episode, we’ll cover: how to stop thinking in diet rules and start thinking in results, how to treat your eating habits like an experiment instead of an exam, and how to lose weight in a calm, confident way that doesn’t undo all the progress you’ve made in trusting yourself. As well as how to finally stop asking, “Am I doing this right?” and start asking, “What’s working for me?” So if you’re ready to build on what we started last week and learn how to be a normal eater who still sees results,you’re in the right place. We’re bringing science, sanity, and a sprinkle of sass to the scale today. Let’s go! https://confidentbody.coach/tips/ BOOK: You Are A Miracle

    How to Go From A Dieter to A Normal Eater

    Have you ever spent so many years dieting that you don’t even know what “normal eating” is supposed to look like anymore? Like, is it eating salads 24/7? Or never thinking about food at all? Or maybe it’s having that magical ability to ignore cake at the office party like it’s a plate of dry broccoli? The thing is, normal eaters aren’t these mystical unicorns floating through life, never thinking about calories, cravings, or cookies. The real difference isn’t about food at all. It’s about how you think about food, and whether you make thoughts, cravings, or overeats a big deal — or just… normal. In this episode, we’ll cover: the biggest mindset shift between a dieter and a normal eater, how normal eaters actually think about food (and why it’s not about being perfect), why maintenance isn’t about easing up but about building a lifestyle that feels livable, and how to finally see that you’re way closer to being a normal eater than you think. So are you ready to shift from rules and rebellion to real choices? Aw yeah, let’s go.   https://confidentbody.coach/tips/ BOOK: You Are A Miracle

    Listen Again: I just want to eat WHATEVER I want, WHENEVER I want

    Have you ever found yourself thinking “I just wish I could eat whatever I want, whenever I want.”    Maybe you even remember a time when that seemed to be true. Ah the good ol’ days. Isn’t it funny how we seem to remember the past with rose colored glasses? But now a’days, if you even look at a hamburger you’ll put on 5 pounds. Ugh!    Today we're diving deep into that burning question: "Why can't I eat whatever I want, whenever I want?” We’ll talk about why it makes sense that we think this way and explore why our desires may be more complex than just satisfying a craving.   We’re gonna bust through some of the excuses your brain gives and discover that what you actually want, may be different than you think.    So, are you ready to wander into the wilderness of your mind and wonder about that wish of wanting to eat whatever you want, whenever you want it?     Ah yeah! Let’s go!   Learn more! https://confidentbody.coach/tips/ You Are A Miracle book

    What If 50% Effort Was Enough?

    Have you ever felt like if you can’t do something perfectly, then what’s the point in even trying?

    The Myths of Maintenance

    Have you ever thought, “Once I hit my goal weight, I can finally relax and stop thinking about food and exercise all the time”? And then, when you actually got close to your goal, you realized… oh no, this isn’t what I expected. Let me ask you this. What if that way of thinking—waiting for the finish line, waiting for the “after” picture—is the very thing that sets us up to regain weight? Today we’ll cover why diets sell us the wrong story about weight loss, how to reframe maintenance so it’s flexible and fits your life, and three common reasons why people regain weight and exactly what to do about each one, as well as how to create a relationship with your body that actually lasts. So are you ready to bust some maintenance myths, and make maintenance manageable? Aw, yeah!    Learn more! http://www.confidentbody.coach/tips You Are A Miracle book

    Listen Again: The Puzzle Perspective: Unlocking the Weight Loss Code

    Have you ever felt like losing weight is like trying to solve a Rubik's Cube blindfolded? The struggle is real, right? It's not just the simple formula that diets try to tell us it is. It's an emotional rollercoaster filled with frustration, self-doubt, and - let’s be honest -  the occasional forbidden love affair with a pint of ice cream.  But what if it didn’t have to be that way? Instead of a tortuous grind, what if it could be thought provoking game? Picture this: You, with a magnifying glass, examining your weight loss journey like a fascinating puzzle rather than a daunting problem.  Here’s a question: What if, instead of blaming ourselves for every little hiccup in our fitness routine, we approached weight loss with curiosity and a beginner's mind? In this episode, we’re talking about how a book that has nothing to do with weight loss can inspire you to think about weight loss in a whole new way. And if there’s nothing else that you get from this episode, there are 4 words that map out the repeatable process you can use to turn your weight loss experience around from painful to puzzling. From shaming and blaming to wondering and learning.  So, are you ready to ditch the shame, put on your science goggles, and approach weight loss like a puzzle instead of a pain the petunias?  That’s right. Strap in cuz it’s time to get our learning on!  Let’s go! Learn more! www.confidentbody.coach/tips You Are A Miracle book
