Outsmart Overeating

When it comes to losing weight, there's no way around it: we HAVE to eat food. The problem many dieters run into is that they're torn between two extremes:

Restrictors: These people diet like it's their full-time job Permitters: These are the YOLO! dieters

In other words, Restrictors have a hard time saying yes to food while Permitters have a hard time saying no.

Join Coach Steph Miramontes and I today as we explore the world of dieting, the two types of people that inhabit this magical land, and how to turn the tables in your favor.

Topics discussed:

• Understanding the differences between Permitters and Restrictors; how these two types interact with food and what they can do to overcome these self-limiting barriers
• How the way we view our body can influence how we view our weight loss journey
• Why awareness and being kind to yourself are the two major players when it comes to any successful weight loss story
• A step-by-step process on how to navigate your way out your dieting type so you can lose the dieter's mindset (and the weight), once and for all
• How your diet brain is a dirty rotten liar that can't be trusted and what you need to be listening to for guidance instead

What about you? Are you a Restrictor or a Permitter? Everyone has aspects of both, but similar to having a dominant right or left hand, knowing which one you are can help you break free from the shackles of dieting.

On this week's episode of the Fat Murder Podcast, co-coach, Steph Miramontes joins me to discuss how in order to permanently lose the weight, you have to lose the dieter's mindset.

Most of the women I've had the pleasure of working with do what all the other dieters do — they practice being overweight and seeking a magical solution.

Instead, you should be practicing what natural eaters do, NOT what overweight women do.

I know this is surely not your intention. You want to lose the weight AND the whole problem.

But if you are approaching it like a dieter, then you are creating more of what you don't want:

• The thoughts of overweight women
• The feelings of overweight women
• The actions of overweight women

….and you are stuck in the struggle.

Of course you're not doing this on purpose. I know it's the opposite of what you want.

If you want to eat and think like a natural eater then you need to stop doing what dieters do, and start doing what natural eaters do.

Join us for the conversation. I'd love to hear your thoughts on how you think a 'natural eater' interacts with the world compared to a dieter and how you can adopt some of those behaviors, too.

Body image can really mess with our heads — in bed.

For women, the way they see their bodies can have a big impact on their feelings of sexual desire and their ability to become aroused.

Today, on the Fat Murder Podcast, join co-coach Steph Miramontes and me as we discuss the feelings of body self-consciousness and how it often interferes with our sexual lives.

In fact, according to research, next to financial differences, negative body image is one of the biggest obstacles of sexual enjoyment in women.

There are two kinds of body image issues that impact a woman sexually:

1. what she thinks of herself
2. what she believes her partner thinks of her body

Is this stone thing you've struggled with? If so, you're not alone. Don't miss today's episode on how body insecurity has affected your sex life and what to do about it.

In today's episode of the Fat Murder Podcast with Coach Steph Miramontes, we discussed the primary reasons WHY you may be able to nail your eating behaviors all day long, but as soon as the day progresses, the wheels fall off and you find yourself eating anything that doesn't eat you first. Have you noticed yourself snacking more during the evening hours? What foods do you find yourself gravitating towards? Are they the same as what's in your meal or are you eating foods on your naughty list? Why does this happen and how do we make it stop? Check out today's episode for the exact strategies we use to help our clients bring this frustrating cycle to an end.

The "naturally thin" behave in mysterious ways. We all know those people who have that magical superpower where they can just have a bite or two of a cookie, put it down, and never think about it again.

WHAT PLANET DO THESE PEOPLE COME FROM!? The truth is, these people aren't born special with a special superpower nor do they have more willpower or a faster metabolism than you. The difference is in their inner psychology and you can learn how to become this person, too. Join Coach Steph Miramontes and me for today's episode of the Fat Murder Podcast as we discuss how incorporating processed foods into your meals can prevent instances of overeating. You'll learn:

• Where the discomfort and fear of processed foods come from and why you have to confront this to be successful with long-term weight loss
• Step by step guidance on how to eat these foods without losing control
• How the fear of eating hyper-palatable foods can actually keep you enslaved to them
• Why avoiding these foods and keeping them out of your home on perpetuates the cycle
• The psychology of the "naturally thin" eater and how you can develop this mindset, too

What do you think? Are you ready to learn the eating habits and inner psychology of the "naturally thin" so you can master your relationship with food and settle into a life that feels amazing? Check out today's episode and let us know what you think!

When it smiles in our favor, we're walking on cloud 9 and nothing can bring us down.

When it shows us a number other than the one we want, it can send us into a mental and physical tailspin.

The scale is a neutral device made of plastic and metal...until we attach meaning and our worth to it. When we take a closer look at the amount of power we give it in our lives, neutral is the furthest thing from the truth.

In this episode, Coach Steph Miramontes and I talk about how to improve your relationship with the scale.

Topics discussed:

• Why people put so much value & emphasis on the scale
• Scale avoiders vs Scale addicts
• Different non-scale victories to celebrate and mark your progress
• How often we recommend weighing yourself

What about you? What role does the scale play in your life? When you see a number that you define as "success" do you reward yourself by eating more? What about when the number doesn't represent your hard work? How do you respond? I'd love to hear all about it. Shoot me a DM on Instagram! Connect with Leslie:

WELP!

It's finally here. The moment we've all been waiting for…

Okay, maybe it's not the moment YOU'VE been waiting for, but it's definitely the moment I've been waiting for!

Today, I'm making good on a promise.

I often talk about how I'm not interested in helping clients lose weight for a wedding, a vacation, or a reunion. Nope! I only created my psychology-based weight loss program, Unstuffed, so I could help people lose weight and keep it off…forever!

In other words, my Unstuffed was created after investing thousands of dollars and hours researching and learning about the successful 5%. If 95% of dieters fail, what are the 5% doing to keep their weight off long-term? What do THEY know that the rest of us don't?!

So today, I've got a very special episode for you.

Talk is cheap. I'd rather show you that my program works. And to do so, I've invited 3 former clients back to the podcast for an update. Each of these ladies have been out of the program for 2+ years and they're ready to dish on everything that's happened post-program.

• Did they regain their weight?
• Are they back to emotional and binge eating?
• What have been some of their biggest obstacles?
• What advice do they wish they would have known when they first started this journey?

No two dieters are the same and they all have different challenges, backgrounds, habits, lifestyles, and emotional eating struggles.

If you're feeling frustrated with your lack of progress and don't know what else to do, you'll resonate with these women and their stories. You'll also learn the psychological shifts and strategies that allowed them to get unstuck, so you can too.

You don't want to miss this fascinating episode with returning clients Maddie, Abi, and Jessie.
