Want to learn the secret to success in creating better habits? For sure, I can tell you what won’t get you there: And so, what’s the antidote to those methods? It’s B minus health. Leaning into it. Getting 1% better every day. Picking the low hanging fruit. ‘Good enough”. Whatever you want to call it, it all adds up to the same thing: getting incrementally better over time so that you don’t burn out in a flame of glory. When we apply good enough to our health, it sounds like we aren’t trying. I mean, when we say, “It’s not just good. It’s good enough.” it implies that we could do better. And maybe we can – but at what price? What if the answer to getting to our goal was barely making an effort? In this episode of the Done with Dieting Podcast, learn how to combat all or Read More . . .
Done with Dieting Episode #11: Creating CALM & FOCUS with Ryan Lanier
There’s no doubt that if we have an organized space, and systems in place to stay organized, that it will free up time and energy, and support the healthy habits that we want to create or maintain. We THINK that it takes a ton of time and work to get everything under control – when we look at our surroundings, it seems completely overwhelming! But today’s guest, Ryan Lanier from Organizing4Good shows us how spending time getting organized ahead of time will actually save time when we don’t have time to spare. If you’re someone who identifies as a ‘hot mess’, and can’t seem to get things under control – AND you’re self-esteem is taking a hit because of it – you do not want to miss this episode. About Ryan Lanier Ryan is the owner and founder of Organizing4Good where she helps busy women/moms control their crazy by simplifying Read More . . .
Done with Dieting Episode #10: How to Feel
Most of us view our own emotions negatively – like they’re inconvenient, embarrassing, they’re unnecessary, they get in the way, or they’re feminine and silly. And for others, because they haven’t been in the practice of feeling their emotions, the emotions can be scary or unpredictable. But emotions can be useful tools because they give us clues to what’s happening around us and what we’re really thinknig. Additionally, they’re part of being human – and there’s no escaping having them. More often than we realize, emotions are what drive our decisions – even for the most logical among us. So, getting in touch with what we’re feeling and why can lead to a really profound awareness about why we do what we do – especially when it comes to being able to keep commitments to ourselves, procrastinating, or getting our shiz together. In this episode, learn the steps to become Read More . . .
Done with Dieting Episode #9: Trust Bank
Are we entitled to lose weight? So many health & fitness gurus tell us that if we want to lose weight, all we need to do is eat less and move more. So, it makes sense that when we do those things – eat salads instead of pizza, or broccoli instead of brownies – and then stand on the scale, and the scale doesn’t reflect what we think it should, that we’d get discouraged. And of course, when we feel discouraged, we’re more likely to give up on whatever plan it is that we’re on. So many of us resentful towards our bodies – that they aren’t holding up to their end of the deal. That our bodies are different. Bad in some way because they don’t look like they should – look like what other people’s bodies look like – or do what they’re ‘supposed to’. What if your Read More . . .
Done with Dieting Episode #8: How to get consistent with exercise
Do you love to exercise? Do you hate it? We’re told that if we want to lose weight, that we need to exercise and eat right. But is that really true? We each have a relationship with exercise. What I mean by that, is how we think about it. For some of us, when we think about exercise, we like it. For others, we consider it a chore or punishment. The good news is that it doesn’t really matter what our current attitude towards exercise is – we have the power to change the way with think about it so that we can get consistent, and believe that we’re disciplined. Join me on the podcast this week as I share the steps that you can take so that you can change the way that you think about exercise, and not only get more consistent with it, but actually start to Read More . . .
Done with Dieting Episode #6: Do we need to Move More and Eat Less?
There’s no doubt that calories in vs calories out is the foundation of weight maintenance and weight loss. Yet, anyone who’s been on a diet and drastically cut calories, logged every morsel that’s passed her lips, knows the frustration and truth of being confronted with the math not working out when standing on the scale and not seeing the number that she had hoped for. So what’s that about? How is it that we can live in a calorie deficit and not lose weight? Truth is that although calories are in fact the way that we gain and lose weight, BUT there are many things happening within our bodies that are so complex – that we really don’t know why two people can eat and do the same things, and while one person will lose weight, and another won’t. In this episode of the Done with Dieting Podcast, we’re going Read More . . .
Done with Dieting Episode #5: Why We Give Up
When we start a new diet, we’re motivated. We’ve seen how effective this diet is – for example our friend Jane did amazingly well on it. And so we believe that we’ll do just as well. It happens all the time – doesn’t it? That we start a diet, initially we get some good results, and then WHAM! We step on the scale one day & we don’t lose weight – or worse, we gain. We think to ourselves, “Why are we doing this?” “This is so much work & we’re not even getting results!” “It’s not working. We should just give up.” The thing is, that we KNOW that our results (losing weight) is because of what we’re doing (eating healthier or exercising, or a combination of both) and that returning to our previous habits are going to result in our previous weight. We know that if we stay Read More . . .
Done with Dieting Episode #4: Self-Sabotage
When we’ve decided that we want to become healthier & develop healthier habits, it’s easy to slip back in to old ones – ones that don’t necessarily serve our needs, and often are in direct conflict with what we truly want. Self-sabotage is common – when we do things like when we decide to bake an entire cake knowing that no one is around to eat it. Or not being realistic in our schedule enough to know that we need to buffer in more time so that our workout time doesn’t suffer. Now – some of these things are just learning how to get good at this new behavior. But sometimes we know that we’ve totally sabotaged ourselves. Why do we do that? And more importantly, how do we stop? What you’ll Learn from this Episode Listen to the Full Episode: Full Episode Transcript: You are listening to the Done Read More . . .
Done with Dieting Episode #3: The Foundation
Sure! We want results fast. BUT fast results often lead to fast burn out too – because the changes that we need to make are drastic. One of the biggest problems that I see with diets is that we’re trying to game the system. We’ve been told by folks trying to sell the latest fad that we can eat all we want of the foods that we desire and STILL lose weight – if we follow their plan. And so we buy into the idea that we can follow their diet rules, still eat endless amounts of hyper-palatable foods, and lose the weight that we desire. It can take more time, but if we have a solid foundation of lifestyle habits, we will feel good, we won’t get huge energy fluctuations, sleep soundly, and reduce our cravings for those salty or sweet cravings that we get.

Done with Dieting Episode #2: Why Dieting Doesn’t Work
Diets have been around for centuries as a form of manipulating our weight and bodies. And so it would be impossible to escape any messages that we have received – overt or implied – about the worthiness of our body, and therefore how to increase our worthiness by shrinking our body through restricting calories and/or over-exercising. But diets can have negative side effects on the dieter, from negative body image, low self-esteem, but there can also be biological implications to eating lower calorie counts than the body requires that result in increased hunger and the body rebounding from the lower than required calories by increasing body fat stores. Dieting and negative body image are inextricably linked. So how do we get ourselves out of this cycle? And what are the next steps?
