Weight Loss for Busy Physicians | ​​Helping Women Physicians Lose Weight for the Last Time

I know having a hopeful attitude typically seems like a good thing, but today I’m going to explain why hope is not enough to attain lasting weight loss. Some of my clients have tried to approach losing weight with an air of passivity and uncertainty, and it just doesn't work. While you may not know all the answers or have the exact outcome nailed down, part of weight loss does require certainty.

In this episode, I will share how to set yourself up to succeed with certainty and build a doubt-free mindset—in yourself and in the process. You'll learn how passive hope really is and how to apply the thought model to it in order to achieve the weight loss results you want.
