Have you ever caught yourself thinking, "I’m too old to lose weight"? 

In this upcoming episode of Thin Thinking, I’ll be tackling three common age-related myths that I hear most often from people struggling with their weight. 

These myths can act like mental prisons, trapping you in self-sabotaging behaviors and undermining your confidence. 

But the good news? You can break free.

We’ll explore how to shift from these limiting beliefs to a more empowering mindset, one that opens the door to lasting weight mastery, regardless of age.

You will also be hearing from others who also thought they were too old but have now released weight and happily proved those old beliefs wrong!

So, if you’ve ever thought, "I’m too old to lose weight," I encourage you to join me in this important conversation. It’s time to challenge the narrative and create a healthier, more positive story for yourself.

Let’s dive in together!

Did you know that while many people reach their ideal weight, less than 10% maintain that weight beyond a few months?

 I’m excited to share that this week marks the beginning of a special Thin Thinking podcast series, The Mindset of Maintenance, which will unfold throughout autumn.

In this series, I’ll be interviewing members of the Shift Weight Mastery community who have successfully maintained their ideal weight.

Each episode dives into the mindset and strategies needed to keep the weight off long-term. These stories, though unique, share the common thread that weight mastery is not about willpower but mind power—and how maintaining that balance is different for everyone.

In our first episode, you’ll meet Sarah, who will be a coach in our upcoming Fall 2024 Shift Weight Mastery program. Sarah has maintained her 40-pound weight loss for nearly two years and will be sharing the insights and lessons she’s learned along the way.

Get ready to be inspired!

Have you ever felt a spark when hearing someone else’s success story, only to think, “Someday, I’ll get to my own dreams”? 

But that “someday” keeps getting pushed further down the road, like an old tin can.

Well, today’s the day to stop waiting and start moving! 

In this week’s Thin Thinking podcast, I’m sitting down with the amazing Gina Abrams, whose story is going to inspire you to take action—not someday, but today.

Gina, a proud member of our Shift Community, defied the odds and achieved not one, but three major milestones in just a single year. 

At 60 years young, she not only reached her ideal weight but has successfully maintained it—proving it’s never too late to take charge of your health. 

But that’s not all. With her newfound energy and confidence, Gina took on one of the most challenging adventures of her life: climbing the majestic Dolomites.

Her story is a powerful reminder of what’s possible when you believe in yourself, set goals, and persist. If you’ve been waiting for a sign to dust off your own dreams, this is it.

Tune in for some serious inspiration and motivation to take that first step. 

Your dreams are waiting!

As a smart, capable person, you might often wonder: "Why do I struggle with weight when I know so much about losing it?" 

You're not alone. I hear this question from new listeners, prospective students, and clients all the time.

I'll be sharing key mindset shifts that can help you bridge the gap between knowledge and lasting success. 

It’s about unlocking a new approach that aligns with your life and goals—without the frustration.

So, grab your party favor and join me as we celebrate and dive into powerful insights that can truly transform your weight journey.

As I approach my 60th birthday, I’ve been reflecting on what it truly means to embrace the changes that come with aging. 

In our latest episode of the Thin Thinking Podcast, I dive deep into the emotional journey that many of us experience as we grow older, particularly in relation to our bodies.

For many of us, aging can bring a sense of loss and even grief for the youthful bodies we once had and the ideals we once held. But this episode isn’t just about looking back—it's about reclaiming our power and shifting our perspective. 

Together, we’ll explore how to forgive ourselves for the years spent in self-doubt and learn to celebrate the wisdom and strength that come with age and our amazing bodies.

This conversation is an invitation to transform regret into acceptance and to see our aging bodies not as sources of shame but as testaments to the lives we've lived and the wisdom we've gained. 

I encourage you to grab your best friend—your body—and join me in this important and empowering discussion.

I hope this episode resonates with you and offers a fresh perspective on the beautiful journey of aging.

As we get older, it's not just about letting go of the past, but also the physical clutter that may be weighing us down. 

Research shows that clutter can significantly impact our mental and physical wellbeing, especially as we age. 

It can increase cognitive load, making it harder to focus, and can strain our memory and organizational skills. Living in a cluttered environment can also lead to feelings of overwhelm, which may contribute to anxiety and depression.

With my 60th birthday just around the corner, I’ve been reflecting on how we can celebrate aging instead of fearing it. 

In my last episode, we explored dressing well as we age, and this week, I'm excited to welcome Dr. Christine Li to discuss the relationship between clutter and aging.

Together, we dive into how clutter affects us and share practical tips on how to break free from the things we know we should let go of.

So, grab your hefty trash bags and tune in—it's time to clear out the clutter and embrace the next chapter with joy and clarity.

Have you ever felt like you're becoming invisible as the years go by? 

It's a feeling many of us experience, but it doesn't have to be our reality. 

In this week's episode of Thin Thinking, I had the pleasure of chatting with fashion consultant Ginger Burr, who shares her insights on how we can embrace our age with style, confidence, and a sense of self-worth.

Ginger and I delve into how, as we get older, we sometimes prioritize comfort over style, thinking we must sacrifice one for the other. But times are changing! Ginger shows us that we don't need to trade comfort for style – and most importantly, we don't have to feel invisible. We can and should represent our best selves to the world, no matter our age.

Join me for this inspiring conversation where we explore how to reconnect with our inner essence and create a wardrobe that truly reflects who we are. Whether you're 25 or 85, this episode is packed with tips and advice that will help you feel radiant every time you get dressed.

So, grab your favorite outfit and come on in for this interesting discussion with the lovely Miss Ginger Burr.
