We Are Losing It

Most of us can tell when someone is feeding us a line of BS. But oddly enough, we don't know when we are feeding ourselves the BS. Or maybe we just chose to ignore it? Either way, it's time to get real with ourselves and stay true to our goals. Listen as we discuss how we fought back to our own mind games. We had to stand up to ourselves and fight for what we really want. One thing we learned after years and years of fighting the good fight... we always came out on top and feeling better. FEELING PROUD! Is it time for you to give up the BS excuses? If so, this is the episode for you!

Have you checked in on your goals that you set back in January? 

What good is it to set goals and then forget about them, and hope that you nail it come December 31st?

This is your reminder to sit down and review where you stand with the goals you set 6 months ago. Where are you crushing it? Where are you falling behind? 

Listen as we discuss what we need to improve on, where we've called audibles and where we are KILLING it!

Summer of 2021 is where Steph Plateaued. Summer of 2022 is where the majority of her regain was put on. We decided this year, we should get ahead of the summer and put a plan in place! 

With that in mind, we just knew that many of you face similar struggles when it comes to staying on track for the summer. Has your routine changed with different summer schedules? Are the kids home and their snacks are calling you from the kitchen? Are you going to more social outings where food and alcohol are abundant? Yeah, us too! 

Listen and learn as we talk through our individual struggles and what we plan to do to stay ahead of it. Neither of us want to face any more regain, and I'm sure none of you do either!!

We've all been there before! The dreaded stall! Even worse, a plateau! It's super frustrating and part of everyone's journey. 

Listen as we talk about the difference between stalls and plateaus, when to expect it and what you should do when it happens. Keep in mind it took us YEARS to figure this out, and we STILL struggle with it!

REGAIN! 

It's an ugly word, but totally worth talking about! 

We've all been there, and it sucks! When we discussed covering the topic of regain, the first expert that came to mind was Jeannie Boyer, RD. 

Listen as we dive in and discuss everything from our personal experience, to the first steps you should take when you start to see regain. And for those of us in the bariatric community, we want to know where the binder is for how to handle regain. Am I right?!

You should know that we are in good hands with the guidance of Jeannie! She has been a dietitian in the bariatric world for 20 years.  

Over that time she has seen many patients disappear to follow up only to come back years later ashamed and feeling guilty about weight regain. 

She created a program to serve folks with kindness, encouragement, and comedy providing real life, personalized tools to help you reach and maintain a happy weight and return to your confident self!

One thing that has gotten both of us this far in our journey is keeping our eye on the prize! Our "Whys" are similar but different. And they've evolved! As we grew and changed, so did our "Why". 

Not only is it important to focus on your reason for losing weight, it's also important to picture your future self. This gives you clear direction on where you want to go in your journey. 

With all of this, we don't want to lose sight of our "before" self. We need to honor that person. That is the person that made the decision to change their life. And did the hard things to give you the results your future self will have. 

It all comes full circle! 

Listen as we discuss our whys and see which one of us had a clear vision of their future self and which one didn't.

Most people focus on nutrition and movement for weight loss. But what about the other 2 pillars to a successful weight loss journey? Sleep & Hydration! It seems that as life gets busy, these 2 get put on the back burner. 

In this episode we talk about the importance of these 2 pillars as well as where we struggle and what our routines look like now.

If sleep and hydration isn't a priority of yours, you definitely want to tune in to this episode!

Throughout your weight loss journey, there will be highs and lows. The lows can really suck you in and drag you down. This is why it's so important to celebrate your successes. The scale is a data point. It's an important piece to our success, but it's not the end all be all. Recognizing non scale victories (NSVs) is equally as important. In this episode, we talk about the importance of recognizing these victories and celebrating your success. 

What are some of your favorite NSVs? If we've missed any here, DM us on Instagram so we can shout you out on our page!
