  • #568 You're Not Lazy, Youre Undernourished

    For 22 years, Lisa believed she had a discipline problem. Then she realised she'd been under-eating the whole time. In this episode, Shane Walsh explains why chronic restriction, not a lack of willpower, drives the yo-yo diet cycle, and how to start seeing your past "failures" as feedback instead. This is the first episode in a four-week countdown to the launch of Break Free, out on Nov 3rd Pre order here

  • #567: "I've Already Messed Up My Diet… What's the Point?"

    Have you ever had one meal, snack or treat that wasn't part of your plan and thought, "Well, I've already messed up my diet, so what's the point?" In this episode, Shane breaks down the "all-or-nothing" mindset that can turn one small slip-up into an entire day — or even a full week — of overeating. You'll learn why the food itself usually isn't the real problem, how the thought "I've ruined it now" can derail your progress, and how to get back on track without guilt, restriction or waiting until Monday.

  • #566 Why Your Old Weight-Loss Strategies Stop Working in Menopause

    Have you ever thought, "Why does this feel so much harder than it used to?" The diet that worked in your 30s doesn't seem to work anymore. Running and cutting back on food isn't getting the same results. You're trying to be "good" all week, only to find yourself snacking, overeating or reaching for foods when you're stressed or exhausted. And perhaps the most frustrating part? You start wondering if you've lost your willpower. In this episode, we're looking at why weight loss can feel so different during perimenopause and menopause—and it's not simply about having a "slower metabolism."

  • #565 Can You Really Eat Chocolate and Still Lose Weight?

    Can you really eat chocolate and still lose weight?

    If you've spent years dieting, you might already know the answer you've been taught.

    "No."

    Chocolate is bad.

    Chocolate is a treat.

    Chocolate is something you have to earn.

    And if you're trying to lose weight, you should probably stay away from it.

    But what if I told you that you can absolutely include chocolate in a fat-loss diet? Female Fat Loss Program - Starts 7th Sept Early bird offer 33% off Join here

  • #564 The "Minimum Effort" Approach to Weight Loss

    What if the reason you're struggling to lose weight isn't because you're not trying hard enough... …but because you're trying too hard? In this episode, we challenge the idea that successful weight loss requires maximum effort, extreme restriction, endless workouts, and perfect nutrition. Because if your plan only works when you're highly motivated and life is going perfectly, it's probably not a sustainable plan. We explore how a minimum-effort approach can help you create habits that are realistic, repeatable, and sustainable for the long term.

  • #563 Why "Getting Back on Track" Is the Wrong Goal
    Why "Getting Back on Track" Is the Wrong Goal

    How many times have you told yourself, "I just need to get back on track"?

    After a weekend of eating more than planned. After a holiday. After a stressful week. After missing a few workouts.

    But what if the idea of "getting back on track" is actually keeping you stuck in the yo-yo dieting cycle?

    In this episode, we unpack why the all-or-nothing mindset can turn one meal, one day, or one weekend into weeks of feeling like you've failed.

    We explore why sustainable fat loss isn't about being perfect—it's about learning how to keep going when life doesn't go according to plan.

    In this episode, we discuss:
    • Why "starting again Monday" can become a never-ending cycle
    • What being "off track" actually means
    • Why one meal doesn't undo your progress
    • The difference between accountability and punishment
    • How restriction can lead to overeating
    • Why you don't need to compensate for yesterday
    • How to use your next meal as an opportunity to continue
    • The 3 questions to ask after a setback
    • Why consistency matters more than perfection
    • How to build habits that work in real life
    • Why the real goal isn't getting back on track—it's learning how to stay on track when life gets messy

  • #562 The Hidden Cost of Dieting

    Have you ever felt like you've spent years chasing the "perfect diet"—only to end up back where you started? In this episode, we're talking about the hidden costs of chronic dieting.

    Not just the weight regain, but the emotional, mental, financial, and social toll that years of dieting can have on your life. If you've spent years counting calories, cutting carbs, starting over every

    Monday, or feeling guilty after eating, this episode is for you. The truth is, the biggest cost of dieting isn't always the number on the scales—it's the years spent believing your life can only begin once you lose weight.

  • #561 Why Counting Calories for "Control" Is an Awful Idea

    For many people, calorie counting starts with good intentions. But somewhere along the way, it stops being a helpful tool and becomes something else entirely. It becomes control. If you've ever felt guilty for eating over your calories, anxious about meals you couldn't track, or believed your day was "ruined" because you went over your target, this episode is for you.

    In this episode of the Shane Walsh Podcast, we explore why calorie counting isn't the problem—but using it to manage anxiety, self-worth, or control can quietly damage your relationship with food. Calorie tracking can be incredibly effective when it's used with purpose.

    But if your confidence, mood, or self-worth depends on hitting a number every day, it's time to ask a different question.

    Are you tracking your food…

    Or is your food tracking you?

  • #560 Have you really tried every diet?

    You've counted calories. You've cut carbs. You've tried keto, Slimming World, Weight Watchers, fasting, detoxes, and probably more.

    So why do you always end up back where you started? In this episode of the Shane Walsh Podcast, we explore the uncomfortable truth that most people haven't actually failed diets—they've been stuck in a cycle where every new plan promises a solution without addressing the real problem.

    If you've ever found yourself thinking: "I've tried everything." "I just can't stay consistent." "Maybe I don't have enough willpower." ...this episode is for you.
