    197 ~ Food Noise 2

    Send us Fan Mail After I published Episode 193 - which was all about Food Noise - you had questions. Lots of them. More than 70 unique questions have come in so far, with more being added to the list every day. (And that's not counting the repeat questions...) They're too important to ignore so we're going to spend our Monday's this summer diving into them and talking about food noise. I answered 12 questions to kick things off.  How do I know if what I'm experience is actually food noise? Is food noise the same thing as emotional eating? Why do I think about food all day when other people don't? Has my food noise always been there, or have I trained myself to think this way? Can food noise ever go away completely? Does menopause make food noise worse? Can poor sleep make food noise worse? Does stress increase food noise? Is this why people taking GLP-1 medications say they suddenly feel "normal"? If I don't take medication, can I still learn to manage food noise? Does food noise come back if someone stops taking weight loss medication? Should everyone with food noise consider medication? Support the show Please consider heading to buymeacoffee.com/CharlotteSkanes to show your support.

    196 ~ Weight Loss Q&A XXXXI

    Send us Fan Mail This week we've got 3 new questions and I'm addressing an issue that just won't go away: Can you talk more about to deal with your loved ones sabotaging your efforts? It's so hurtful and so surprising.Can you suggest a shopping list of swaps? Or what you have in your kitchen as staples currently?One of the things I'm struggling with the most with calories is because... I hate "wasting" the calories. I'm more tempted to eat every bite even if I'm full because I've already calculated in those calories and I don't want to give them up. THE "issue"...Support the show Please consider heading to buymeacoffee.com/CharlotteSkanes to show your support.

    195 ~ Episode 191 Explained

    Send us Fan Mail After episode 191 came out you had questions. Lots of encouragement but also lots of questions and there were so many similar or repeat questions that I had to do this episode.  You wanted to know things like: Are you okay? Is the workload sustainable for you long‑term? Do you have a plan to get help or build a team eventually? What's going to change with the podcast or the membership because of what's happening financially? Are you ever going to share more about your recovery journey? Do you feel proud of how far you’ve come, or does the trauma still overshadow everythig? Why exactly does Instagram pay so little even though you've got millions of views? What kinds of brand deals have you turned down? If you need money, why not take some brand deals with ethical companies?Are you asking for donations? Why talk about monetization at all? If you’re posting 4–6 times a day, is that about helping people or about growing? Why not hire help? You're a hypocrite. If you turned on YouTube ads why not turn on podcast ads too? How can we help? Support the show Please consider heading to buymeacoffee.com/CharlotteSkanes to show your support.

    194 ~ Weight Loss Q&A XXXX

    Send us Fan Mail 4 more brand new questions!! I love your pineapple cheesecake fluff but on your journey have you ever been concerned with sugar?What would you recommend is the easiest most sustainable thing to do as far as measuring everything and tracking in the beginning? And how do you determine "how much" to have, for example 3oz 4oz of protein at a meal? this is exactly how I overthink this and get frustrated and give up.Do you have any tips for getting through long work hours - including some overnights?I feel so conflicted about losing weight because I worked SO HARD to have body positivity. But I'm having "some issues" medically and I need to lose weight because of them.
