  • 006: Interview with Melanie Cayer - Finding Freedom from Food

    Journeying towards weight loss is never easy and it doesn’t happen overnight. For Melanie Cayer, our coaching client, it’s a decade-long struggle.

    In this episode, we will talk about Melanie's weight loss journey through coaching. We'll talk about how to overcome fear of food and the guilt that comes with eating, being apprehensive in trying out coaching, journaling emotions instead of eating them, and the tools she uses to enjoy food with intention.

    Here are some takeaways from this episode:

    • Eating intentionally, not mindlessly, will help you enjoy food without the guilt
    • Changing your relationship with food can make you feel better and lead you to healthier choices
    • The three biggest things coaching provides: commitment, self-responsibility, and accountability
    • Feel free to share your insights and experiences with us on Instagram - tag us @wayzahealth. Don’t forget to follow us for more sustainable weight loss tips and success stories by real people who changed their way of life by simply changing the way they eat.

    • 005: Planning Tomorrow Today

      How many decisions do you make in a day? And how easy is it to make a good decision at the end of a busy day? We make countless decisions in our daily lives that we don’t even realize we’re doing.

      In this episode, we talk about making decisions ahead of time by activating the prefrontal cortex of your brain, the part responsible for logical reasoning and decision making, rather than your primitive brain, which wants what it wants in the moment. Planning what you eat the night before results in less stress, more freedom, and helps prevent decision fatigue.

      After this episode, you’ll be able to:

      • Practice delayed gratification to improve your relationship with food
      • Make realistic plans that you can actually stick to
      • Build self-trust by committing to your decisions and following through
      • I'd love to hear what you learned from today’s episode. Take a screenshot of you listening on your device, put in some insights and takeaways, share it to your Instagram stories, and tag me, @wayzahealth!

      • 004: Book Review: What Happened To You?

        What happened to you? It’s a great question to ask when you find yourself falling headfirst into a bag of Cheetos. Understanding what’s happening in your brain when this happens, and why it happens, gives you the power to choose a different way to manage your stress and difficult emotions.

        In this episode, we take a deep dive into Oprah Winfrey and Bruce Perry’s new book “What Happened to You: Conversations on Trauma, Resilience, and Healing.” By the time you finish listening, you’ll learn:

        • How the brain reacts to stress and trauma and why it’s so easy to overeat as a stress management tool
        • Why it’s important to fill your “reward bucket”
        • Three ways to manage stress and heal from trauma
        • Shifting from asking yourself “What’s wrong with me?” to “What happened to me?” when you overeat replaces blame with compassion, and puts you back in charge of your thoughts, emotions and actions.

        • 003: Committing to Weight Loss

          What does it really take to commit to weight loss? It takes more than desire. It requires understanding your own compelling reason for wanting to change your body. It requires putting a stop to collecting information, buying programs, and signing up for weight loss challenges, and taking real action instead.

          In this episode, we’ll navigate the importance of commitment, managing your mind, and taking massive action to get the job done. By the time you finish listening, you’ll discover:

          • Why simply going on a diet without also managing your mind is a broken strategy for weight loss.
          • Why you should rely on Whypower rather than willpower for sustainable weight loss.
          • How to take massive action to achieve your goals.
          • Making adjustments to how you think about your weight, your body, and food will set you on the right track for sustainable weight loss.
