Many people think smoothies are A WAY TO LOSE WEIGHT. I just don't believe this is true. It's really easy to overeat with smoothies, it's really hard to tell when you've had enough with a smoothie, and it's practically impossible to tell when you should adjust the amount of your smoothie. I think that putting food in your mouth, tasting it's deliciousness, and stopping when you're satisfied is still the best way. I discuss all this and more on the podcast today.

Does the layout of your house or apartment work against your weight loss journey?

How can you disrupt these habits by doing something against your home design, and other great easy habit disrupters that keep you losing weight more easily. This is what we look at on the podcast today.

These is what I learned:

1) Food order matters--this happens with most human bodies, and it did with mine as well.

2) Refined sugar and bread were the same to my body. We're talking a high blood sugar spike!

3) Hiding dessert works--I was able to have a small dessert right at the end of the meal with no change in blood sugar from the same meal without that little dessert.

Hope you enjoy hearing about my experience and my advice for you afterwards!

I was thrilled to have Dr. Megan Melo, MD a fellow family doctor on the show today. She and I are also certified Life Coaches--she works with doctors to decrease overwhelm by fighting perfectionism and people pleasing. We dive into perfectionism today. How does it show up at work, and can you see it in your work?

We discuss how there is about 20% of your work that needs to be at your highest level, and 80% can be done at a much lower standard. However, many professional women flip these numbers. When you work 80% of the time at that high level, it doesn't really make your work results better oftentimes, and it comes at a great cost to your well-being and personal life. We also discuss perfectionism as a habit, rather than a personal trait, which can be freeing when you want to make a change.

And perfectionism in weight loss? Completely unnecessary, and likely to hurt your progress (as well as adding misery to your life). Compassionate perseverance can be a better friend on your weight loss journey, and we discuss what that means today on the podcast too.

We have these people in our lives. They guilt us about food, they shame us into eating a pastry at the morning meeting. And of course, we don't want to be the difficult food person at the event. Today I give you some ways to think about this, and some ideas to get around these people. Cheers!
