Of course you want faster weight loss results. We all do! But it already feels like you’re doing everything you can. Should you eat even less? Workout even more? My friend, you don’t need to do either one of those things, because I have a short list of two things you can do that’ll really move the needle on the scale. As I promised you last week, I’ve got another deep-dive Masterclass that I pulled up from the Pahla B archives. This one was called “Speed Up Your Results By Doing These Two Things,” and I know you’re going to find some real gems in here.  I originally recorded this webinar way back in early 2023, and it really covers a lot of actionable ground for how to move forward on your weight loss journey. And just like last week, you also get the added treat of listening in to the Q&A; session after the webinar, so be sure to listen all the way to the end. Enjoy!

How To Get Faster Weight Loss Results

After a lifetime of hearing that you have to eat healthy or low calorie foods to lose weight, or you have to give up carbs or fats or desserts to lose the weight you want – well, overthinking menopausal women like you are understandably skeptical when my answer to the question of “Can you REALLY eat what you want and still lose weight?” is unequivocally “Yes, you can.” 
 When I was preparing for this week’s episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, I went back into the Pahla B archives to watch a Masterclass I had put on about eight or nine months ago. I knew I had made a couple of points in that class that I wanted to share with you on the podcast, but I had honestly forgotten just how useful and actionable the whole class was. 
 So today, instead of just sharing a few points from that Masterclass, I’m sharing the entire thing, including the viewer Q&A; at the end, which was super valuable as well. 
 And let me give you a little heads up. While I was in the vault, I found a couple of other Masterclasses I’m excited to share with you, too. So, over the next three weeks, you can enjoy these longer episodes that get super in-depth on the weight loss mindset topics you care about most. 
 Today’s Masterclass was recorded last fall, and it’s all about how to navigate “eating season” while you’re losing weight. Enjoy!

Can You REALLY Eat What You Want and Still Lose Weight?

I know you’ve got ‘em, because everybody has “diet thoughts.” In your head, they make so much sense and they sound so true. But not only are these thoughts not true, they’re holding you back from losing all the weight you want. So today, we’re exploring four “diet thoughts” you can let go of right now. 
 Letting go of your unhelpful thinking is a piece of the weight loss mindset puzzle that often gets overlooked.  
 And I get it. I mean, it’s so much more pleasant to write affirmations to yourself on your mirror or to make gratitude lists or count your blessings or celebrate your wins. Everybody wants to feel good. Me, too. 
 But skipping over the yucky parts of your journey isn’t doing you any favors. In fact, not releasing your diet thoughts is the exact reason you’re either struggling to lose weight right now or the culprit behind why you’ve gained and lost weight so many times in your life. 
 As long as you continue thinking “diet thoughts” you’ll continue being on a diet. 
 Are you ready to let them go? Let’s dig in!

Four "Diet Thoughts" You Can Let Go Of Today

Hands down, the most common question I get from women who are struggling to lose weight after menopause is, “Should I change my calories?” And the short answer is “Probably not.” But if you want to learn all about it, let’s dive in! You’ve been trying to lose weight for a while. Months. Maybe even years. And in spite of your best efforts, the scale is either staying the same or bouncing around within a couple of pounds. Every time you weigh yourself, you’re feeling frustrated and doubtful. At the end of the day, you’re looking at your numbers and wondering why you’re even bothering. It just seems like you’re standing still. So you must need to change your calories, right? GOALfriend, I feel you on a deep, soul level. But instead of continuing to spin around and around with the question, “Should I change my calories?” on this week’s episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, I’ve got four even better questions to ask yourself. If you’re ready to shift out of calorie confusion and into weight loss confidence, this is the episode for you. Ready to lose weight for the last time?

Should You Change Your Calories?

It’s so frustrating to watch the constant up and down on the scale, isn’t it? You just want to lose weight consistently! Well, on today’s episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, I’m spilling the tea, with three tips for consistent weight loss. 
 It’s true that weight loss never moves in a direct, straight line down, but you can achieve a continuous, consistent downward trend over time.  
 The key? 
 Understanding the body-based inputs you have complete control over (calories, water, sleep schedule, and exercise), and managing your mindset. 
 The trick with those body-based inputs is that they are virtually impossible to follow through with consistently, unless you’re managing your mindset first. This is why I’m a mindset coach, and why the three tips I’m offering you today are all about mindset. 
 When you’ve got mindset, you’ve got everything you need to get your goal. So let’s dig in!
