    How to Eat During the Holidays Without Gaining the “Holiday 10”

    How to Eat During the Holidays Without Gaining the “Holiday 10” What if the reason you gain weight over the holidays has almost nothing to do with the holiday food? It’s not the cookies. It’s not Thanksgiving dinner. And it’s definitely not your grandmother’s pecan pie. It’s what happens before and after you eat it. In this episode, I’m breaking down the all-or-nothing thinking, restriction, “I’ll start again in January” mentality, and food drama that can turn one holiday meal into three weeks of overeating. And I’m going to show you how to enjoy the foods you actually love without turning December into one long “last supper.” Because food freedom isn’t about being “good.” It’s about being able to trust yourself in real life, in real time. And yes...you can eat the holiday food and still get the body you want.   If you’ve been listening to this podcast and thinking, “I know I’m ready for something to change, but I don’t want to spend another year dieting, starting over, and fighting with my body,” I want to invite you into something a little different. It’s called the Jumpstart Experience…a private 12-week experience where we work together to create real, sustainable change in your body, your habits, and the way you think about yourself. We start SEPTEMBER 28th! It’s intimate, highly supported, and designed for women who are ready to stop chasing quick fixes and finally understand how to make weight loss feel simpler...and something they can actually maintain. If that sounds like the kind of experience you’ve been looking for, I’d love to have you join us. You can learn more and apply at https://www.nicoleternay.com/jump

    You Can Eat What You Want and Still Lose Weight - Weight Loss for Women Over 40

    You Can Eat What You Want and Still Lose Weight What if the thing keeping you from losing weight isn’t what you’re eating...but the fact that you’ve spent years telling yourself you can’t eat it? In this episode, I’m challenging one of the biggest beliefs in dieting: that you need more restriction and more control to lose weight. Because if telling yourself “I can’t have that” actually makes you obsess over it, crave it harder, and eventually overeat it… maybe restriction isn’t the solution. We’re getting into food freedom, cravings, emotional eating, all-or-nothing thinking, and why self-trust matters more than another set of food rules. You’ll also learn why eating what you want does not mean eating everything in sight...and how giving yourself permission can actually change the way you eat. Because sustainable weight loss isn’t about becoming better at saying no. Sometimes, it’s learning how to say yes without abandoning yourself.

    Social Eating and Shame Around Food

    Social Eating and Shame Around Food Why can eating with other people feel so different from eating on your own? In this episode of the Food Freedom Mindset series, Nicole Ternay explores the psychology behind social eating, food guilt, comparison, and the shame that can show up around your choices. You’ll discover why the real struggle often isn’t the food—it’s what you make the food mean about you. Nicole shares how to break the cycle of judgment and all-or-nothing thinking, become more present around food, and begin building a relationship with yourself that’s rooted in trust instead of control.

    Stop Tracking Calories to Lose Weight   Food Freedom Mindset Series What if calorie tracking isn't actually solving your weight loss problem...but creating a new one? In this episode, Nicole Ternay challenges the idea that you need to count calories, track food, and constantly monitor what you eat to lose weight. She dives into the psychology behind calorie counting, why tracking can create a lack of self-trust, and what it really takes to develop freedom around food. If you're tired of thinking about food all day, relying on an app to tell you what you can eat, or feeling like you're constantly trying to control yourself, this episode will give you a very different way to think about weight loss. It's time to stop asking, "How can I track better?" and start asking, "How can I trust myself?" ARE YOU READY FOR YOUR WEIGHT LOSS BREAKTHROUGH?

I’m not handing you a meal plan and telling you to try harder. We’re going underneath the weight. We’re looking at the patterns, habits, emotions and beliefs that have been keeping you stuck...and changing the way you relate to yourself so you can finally create results that actually last. You’ll get 12 weeks of coaching with me, weekly live group calls, two private sessions with me, lifetime access to the program, and a small group of women who are ready to do this differently. And yes, weight loss can absolutely happen….when I have run this program in the past people have lost 9-23 pounds but the average woman lost 17. But the bigger goal? To change the woman who has been struggling with her weight...so you don’t have to keep struggling with it.

    Foods That Sabotage Your Weight Loss: Good vs. Bad Food Freedom Mindset Series Are certain foods really sabotaging your weight loss—or is it the way you've been taught to think about food?
