I went to the Cheesecake Factory last night. To some of you, that reads as something bad. To me, it was a wonderful time.

However...I woke up with some less-than-constructive thoughts this morning. In today's slightly vulnerable episode, I'll walk you through how I'm getting rid of unnecessary guilt, as I'm doing it, in real time.

Do you have to hate your body to change it? Do you have to be angry at yourself to lose weight? Do you need to speak negatively to yourself to get it to stick?

On the second anniversary of my video where I took my shirt off at the boardwalk for the first time, we're going to talk about all of the reasons the self-hate approach hasn't worked for you yet, and what to do instead. It gets pretty emotional toward the end.

Are you stuck in a plateau? In this episode, I work with Matt on how to start moving forward again after an incredible 102 pound weight loss.

For Q&A episodes, I do not read any of the questions before answering them! This way, you get something more valuable than just the answer -- you get the process of how I arrived at it. That way, you can begin to solve your own problems more effectively on your journey.

I wrote and recorded this comedy piece,

Every day, I hope it stops being satire.

Good luck, everyone.

Throughout my life, I didn't do enough for myself. Any time I faced resistance in pursuit of self care or wish fulfillment, I'd take it as a sign that the thing I wanted wasn't meant for me.

"No hopes", I'd repeat to myself, reasoning that it was better to not have hopes at all than to have them and see them crushed.

This past weekend, I pushed past it all to do something good for myself. To prove to myself I'm not destined to press my nose against the glass of life forever.

I want you to do the same.

I'm in a measured calorie deficit for the first time in a while. IT'S HARD.

But I'm not hungry all the time. In fact, I hardly ever am, and I'm losing weight. Today I'll talk about how, and also talk about why it's still difficult anyway. This is how you can get past all the same obstacles to get the same results.

I overthought the intro of my own show, and it sent me into a self doubt spiral. A show I do every week! I should know how to start it. But I thought about it too much, and psyched myself out. I literally convinced myself I couldn't intro my own show.
