Think about the last time you truly cared about a goal...

How did you approach accomplishing that goal?

You got your hands on every resource you possibly could and spoke with every expert on the topic who would give you a few minutes of their time so that you could learn as much as you could about subject XYZ.

Yet when it comes to weight maintenance, so many of you do NOT capitalize on the plethora of resources you have at your fingertips to help you succeed...

If you did, you’d be successful. Because at no other point in history have you had such EASY access to so much information about how to help you accomplish your goal.

 If you cared, you’d be bathing in the copious amounts of information and making a diligent, daily effort to reach your goal of permanent weight loss.

Today's episode will be a wake-up call for many of you!

We’ve all been there.

We’ve gone in with the best intentions to have one small portion and it’s turned into 10, or, to have one “free” meal and it’s turned into a binge.

On today’s episode, I want to offer some advice as to how to be more mindful and present during meals so you can catch yourself in similar situations before things spiral out of control and right the ship.

If you’ve struggled with binge eating, this episode is for you. It’s especially helpful if you recognize that these binges stem from stress or emotions.

I detail a 6-step strategy you may use to gain back control over portions, food choices, and mindfulness at meal times.

The Dopamine-Fueled Drive To Diet Theory postulates that the pleasure derived from the thrill of dieting is so great that when you’re not dieting, your body and mind quietly work (on a subconscious level) to undermine your weight maintenance efforts so that you’ll regain what you lose and have to diet all over again.

Last week, I didn't do the best job clarifying and expanding on why this may occur. So, in this episode, I do a much better job and talk in detail about the role of dopamine (it's not all about pleasure) and offer actionable advice to overcome this urge to diet!

In today's episode, I conclude the 4-part series on theories of weight regain with my personal theory: The Dopamine-Fueled Drive To Diet Theory. This theory postulates that the pleasure derived from the thrill of dieting is so great that when you’re not dieting, your body and mind quietly work (on a subconscious level) to undermine your weight maintenance efforts so that you’ll regain what you lose and have to diet all over again. Listen in to learn why this happens and what you need to do to avoid falling victim to this!

In this episode, I share the thoughts that occupied my mind on my 30-hour drive across the country. I think this episode is best summarized as a collection of different tangents that eventually connect and mesh nicely together.

I spend time talking about the role of investing in yourself and personal development when trying to maintain weight loss, as well as:

• Continuing to take the skills you learned with you during a diet beyond the diet
• The importance of structure and discipline
• How permanent weight-maintenance is a skill that needs to be worked on daily

I spend time talking about how weight maintenance is like learning a foreign language and remaining fluent, what larger picture weight maintenance is a part of in life's journey, and much more.

Enjoy!
