Love Life And Lose Weight

How To Sell Yourself On Weight Loss


Listen Later

In this episode, I explain common objections I see in weight loss and how to overcome them to go all-in on your weight loss. It is normal to both want to lose weight and then at the same time feel conflicted about doing all the things. We need to uncover those quiet beliefs that are opposed to weight loss. 

  1. What will I have to give up? 
  2. I already failed all my other diets. 
  3. Diets don't work. 
  4. My partner/family/friends don't support me or sabotage me.
  5. I don't have time to spend on weight loss. 
  6. I don't have money to spend on weight loss. 
  7. It will take too much time. 
  8. I have no support. 

I explain how you can think about any of these objections and 'litigate' them with the whole truth and compelling whys to sell yourself on your weight loss journey without splitting your commitment and your energy against your goal.

Here is your coach's homework:

Write down the reason(s) why you DON'T want to lose weight in a list so you can take these hidden reasons out of your head and look at them objectively in the light of day.

Then for each one, apply compassion and search for why it makes sense that you would object to weight loss in this way.

Can you find an access point from this objection to work from and overcome it?
