The Paul Dermody Podcast

These are four important ideas that so often go overlooked.

1. It is normal to stop eating your favourite foods whilst still wanting more.
2. When people say they're addicted to sugar, it is usually because certain foods have become their only "go-to" when stressed or sad.
3. You cannot fix your relationship with food with more food rules
4. There is only one effective strategy after overeating, and it's unspectacular: get back to eating normally.

There is a science to many eating behaviours, but there is also an art - and like art, it is subjective to each of us. Here are a few thoughts from my morning walk worth contemplating.

A simple question - what do I want to get from this experience?

Whether I'm eating for pleasure or nourishment, have overeaten or have not eaten at all, what growth, lessons, wisdom and perspective do I want to extract from this moment?

In this episode, Paul goes through his history of binge eating - how it started, how he broke it and how he stayed out of it. Binge eating was, in part, because of an overvaluation of body shape which ironically made things worse and worse.

Paul stopped dieting for a prolonged period, stopped focusing on being lean, practised unconditional permission to eat until it felt "normal", and then dieted again years later with the principles he now teaches his clients, getting some of the best results in the industry.

This episode might be the nudge you need to seek the appropriate help from a qualified professional.

I recently spoke on a finance podcast and was asked where I got my investing knowledge. I don't have much. I have a huge interest in human behaviours and predictable tried and true patterns. Skills rely more on behaviours than they do information.

In this episode, I talk about the main skills that are important when it comes to losing weight and keeping it all for life - skills that will probably be as true in 100 years as they are today. A calorie deficit seldom works when there is a deficit of eating skills.

Last week I told a client that it's impossible to lose weight and never feel hungry.

So I decided to share a smattering of ideas I've found important and impactful. I've expanded on them a little - using examples in some cases - but the goal is to make them into memorable bite-sized nuggets to keep with you always

Barbara shares her story on losing 60lbs, why she wouldn't have been in a place to hear this message years ago and why the generally positive "you can do it too" tone can be more harmful than useful

Yoyo dieting will never be fixed with more dieting. And yet, the desire to change your body is difficult to put aside. It's understandable. But how do you address this issue?

This episode explores 3 core ideas for breaking yoyo dieting forever;

'If/then' planning, Unconditional (not uncritical) permission to eat and entering a delibarate weight-neutral phase.

Weight management is not about diets. It's about skill development and self-awareness.
