    Why (and How!) I Stopped Dieting

    Why (and How!) I Stopped Dieting

    Of course you want to be done dieting because who wants all that restriction and anxiety? But you’re also pretty sure you have to diet to lose weight after menopause. Thankfully, you don’t have to feel like you’re on a diet at all. So today, I’m sharing exactly WHY and HOW I stopped dieting, while I was losing weight for the last time in my 50s.


    Feeling like you’re on a diet is optional, and the truth of it is that you’re far more likely to be successful at losing weight and maintaining it for life when what you feel is amazing.


    So, today I’m sharing four ways I used to feel like I was on a diet and exactly what I did to stop dieting and start loving, trusting, understanding, and believing in myself instead.


    Are you ready to set yourself free from the worry, frustration, judgment and restriction of dieting? I’ve got you covered. Tune in and let’s go.

    The 12 Biggest Weight Loss MYTHS, Debunked

    The 12 Biggest Weight Loss MYTHS, Debunked

    There’s a lot of information out there about weight loss for menopausal women, and some of it is straight-up wrong. To help you separate fact from fiction, on this week’s episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, we’re debunking twelve of the biggest weight loss myths, plus of course I’ll share the real facts so you can lose all the weight you want and keep it off forever.
    Your body and your brain are always always always working together, so any weight loss advice that doesn’t address your mindset isn’t giving you the complete answer.


    Second, and this is almost the same point, but in a broader context, weight loss is never about one thing.


    Which means that any advice that purports that weight loss is driven by one singular factor – like eating during a specific window of time, or eliminating a specific type of food, or exercising in a specific way – is incomplete.


    The simple science behind weight loss is that it’s driven by three things, in this exact order: 1, believing that you can, 2, eating in a slight caloric deficit over time, and 3, lovingly supporting your menopausal metabolism.


    So now that you know the facts, let’s get to the Twelve Biggest Weight Loss MYTHS, so we can debunk those suckers!

    What To Do When You're Not Losing Weight

    What To Do When You're Not Losing Weight

    When you’re not losing weight it’s almost never because of your calories. And yet, that’s the conclusion we all jump to immediately, even though changing up your calories is more likely to slow you down than speed you up. On this week’s episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, I’m sharing three important things to do (that aren’t changing your calories) when you’re not losing weight.


    Weight loss is a long game, and it’s driven by three things, in this exact order: number one, believing that you can, number two, eating in a slight caloric deficit over time, and number three, lovingly supporting your menopausal metabolism while you do numbers one and two.


    Fiddling around with your calories (number two) before you address the belief piece (number one) is kind of like trying to read a book in a foreign language when you don’t even know the alphabet yet. Sure, you can make guesses, but it’s unlikely that you’ll make sense of the story.


    Imagine jumping into the deep end of a pool when you don’t believe that you can swim. You’ll just thrash around and, at best, tread water, instead of gliding smoothly to the other side.


    You absolutely, positively, must take a look at your mindset – your beliefs – before making adjustments to your calories, so that you don’t find yourself splashing around and not making progress toward your weight loss goal.


    This is why the three things to do when you’re not losing weight that I’m sharing with you today are all mindset-focused – so you can swim like a champion and read novels with ease.


    No, I’m joking.


    I’m showing you how to change your mindset so you can lose all the weight you want after menopause and keep it off forever.

    4 Reasons You’re Not Losing Weight… Yet

    4 Reasons You’re Not Losing Weight… Yet

    You’ve been working on losing weight for a while, but you’re still not seeing the results you want on the scale. It feels super frustrating to put in all this effort and not be making any progress. So, why aren’t you losing weight? And what can you do about it? On this week’s episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, I’m sharing four reasons why you’re not losing weight … yet.
    Before we get into it, make sure you really take the time to hear the last word in the title of this episode: yet. 


    While it may or may not be true that you’re not losing weight right now (and we’ll talk about how that might not even be true in reason number four!), your current weight loss progress is not an indicator of your future success.


    Because the simple formula for permanent weight loss is this: Step One, believe that you can lose weight. Step Two, eat in a slight caloric deficit over time, and Step Three, lovingly support your menopausal metabolism while you’re doing Step One and Step Two.

    Right now, there’s a really good chance that disbelief is lurking in every corner of your brain. It’s not just the thought, “I don’t believe I can lose weight” that’s stopping you, though that’s definitely one of the most common mindset blocks I hear. 


    But there are other ways that disbelief shows up in your life and, notably, on the scale, that we’re talking about today. These four reasons you’re not losing weight YET, are your ticket to uncovering your disbelief mindset blocks, so you can bust through them.

    How To Lose Weight Without Feeling Like You're On a Diet

    How To Lose Weight Without Feeling Like You're On a Diet

    You can’t really lose weight without dieting…can you? What if this so-called conventional wisdom isn’t very wise after all? What if you could lose all the weight you want and keep it off forever, without feeling like you’re on a diet at all? My friend, you can, and this episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast will tell you how.


    The fact is, you can DO all the things to lose weight – which is to say, creating belief in yourself and eating in a slight caloric deficit over time, while supporting your menopausal metabolism with adequate hydration, sleep, and exercise – without FEELING like you’re on a diet.


    Because your feelings don’t come from what you’re doing – they come from your thoughts. 🤯


    You’re not doomed to constantly feeling restriction, obligation, pressure, uncertainty, frustration, anger, or overwhelm on your weight loss journey. In fact, this week I’m offering up three alternative (and much more pleasant) feelings that you can easily have while you’re losing weight, instead of feeling like you’re on a diet.


    Thanks for joining me!

Another great one

Thank you

No platitudes, no affirmations, just digging into your brain-body connection

When reviewers say thing like Pahla’s message is meant to make you feel negative or guilty about what you’ve done for weight loss, I know without a doubt they never actually listened, or they went in deciding they were against mindset work no matter what.
I have been so empowered by learning to take agency over my mindset. In the GYG, Pahla guides us to the thoughts that lead to feelings and actions that take us away from our goals. This practice will lead me to end my lifelong history of yo-yo dieting because I’m getting to the root of those thoughts that lead me to regain weight.
Her message, her coaching is very freeing. Her podcast is such a great extension of her GYG group and worth a listen.
