Trustology

Do you ever take stock in your needs? Think about a habit that you want to add or bring to your life but then actually take the steps needed to support this habit? Most of us spend our days only thinking about why we are unable to change. Listen to my special podcast in reflecting what your needs are and how to prioritize them.

The average researcher fails at 88 out of every 100 of their experiments. That is a lifetime of rejection, yet with every failed experiment they take the knowledge learned from each study to perfect the next. Every guru experiences failure a multitude of times before they become an expert in their field. The face plants we take are the footsteps we make that give us the experience, expertise, and knowledge which enable us to become who we are. There is a fine line in accepting these imperfections as part of the process. Mastery only comes from perseverance and persistence. Listen to how building a resume of your failures can help you bring clarity to resolving your issues and meeting your goals.

We are constantly plagued with the desire to lose weight faster than our bodies will allow in order for the change to be permanent. Even though we know and understand this, the frustration we feel causes ongoing interference when the scale does not move fast enough. Listen to my comparison of how the famous PRESCHOOL MARSHMALLOW test compares to our levels of instant gratification and how we can learn from it.

So often we obsess over the outcome. We focus on finding an answer and we bypass our own learning and growth. The reason we don't sit with the question is we challenge ourselves to find an answer but the question is what should we do to push ourselves when a challenge arises and we want to find an easy way out. We try to find a simple solution and it doesn't work and we end up struggling, we get frustrated we quit and then we give up. This is a pattern that starts early in life. We are conditioned to get the correct answer and move on. We are focusing on the product over the process we prioritize our gross instead of our evolution.

In my constant practice of teaching my members to focus on nutrition over exercise and use the scale only as a guide, my personal example of how sodium in one meal could cause derailment that will lead to failure.

There is nothing more liberating that making a decision yourself that you know you would never been able to make years ago. Yet, on that note it is clear that old patterns still live within us and it takes a strong inner monologue between the logical you and illogical you to bring clarity to the picture.

Whether you're on a vacation or just taking a few days off work, our routines can become compromised due to the change in our schedules. This includes weekends and even sick days. Listen to my tips on how to keep your routines up to par so you can continue to succeed in the goal making process!

We tell ourselves we can't do things. We define ourselves as people with shortcomings or inabilities to accomplish certain tasks. This is clearly a limitation we are creating which is prohibiting our success. Listen to my big epiphany as I was faced with a huge face plant after realizing I was doing just this...

So often I hear people say the feel like they are gaining after working out ... many factors involved. The biggest message is don't let the scale derail and it boils down to data. Listen to my advise on this topic!

As hard as it is to understand, no one in invincible to weight gain. Even harder to understand when you are someone who just can't succeed, the primary reason you may be failing is lack of consistency. This consistency will provide so many valuable things for you that will help you lose the weight and will be the security you need in keeping off. This episode is for those individuals who start out strong and never seem to finish!

We've all experienced it on some level in any one of its forms. Excessive guilt, religious guilt, emotional guilt, neurotic guilt…you name it. But no matter how we frame it, it all stems from the same basic root feeling that we've done something dreadfully wrong, and shouldn't do it again. When it comes to weight loss, we're no strangers to those guilty feelings. But we may not fully realize just how much our “food guilt” is standing in the way of our weight loss goals. Create a guilt-free zone instead!

Less is not more. Restrictions only lead to disappointment. We become frustrated when we don't see results and those monsters in our head crawl out of the woodwork and speak to us in ways that cause us to make illogical decisions. You have to be aware of these little devils and set them straight so you don't fall into the same trap that you have fallen into for years.

Our bodies are very complex. We are unable to comprehend the fact that calories don't reset at midnight and that it's an accumulation of what we do that brings us the results we get when we put forth an effort. An ounce is an ounce...we are made of more than 50% water. We need to focus on what he scale is really for instead of fixating on things that don't matter!

One of the reasons it is so hard to keep weight off is we are so hard on ourselves. We not only fall into a state of denial when we gain back a few pounds but then we burden ourselves with feeling embarrassed and ashamed. This is a huge obstacle not only in your journey to keep the weight off, but in your mental mindset throughout the process. Listen to how you can help yourself before you sink!

If you stay on plan all day but then at night fly by the seat of your pants... your pants will soon not fit since you are not changing this constant cycle. You need a plan. Listen to my tips and make your night stand one that doesn't take you down!

When you fall on your face you tend to just say fuck it. This lack of consistency is the main reason why we don't see success. We don't allow ourselves to see the big picture and our bodies don't become securely embedded with the habits, routines and metabolic strength needed to allow for little slides... so every slip becomes a face plant. See how your mindset can avoid this perpetual issue with dieting.

Lela is preparing to turn 50 this year, two year after Covid where the average weight gain has been 8.2 pounds, she shed 20. Additionally she has proven that the metabolism can be changed at any age by following a program consistently as she leads a very active social life including nearly a dozen vacations without any weight gain. Listen to her amazing story!

We are creatures of habit and victims of our past. We are so used to falling on our faces when it comes to dieting that it we have to learn how to adjust to this new routine of success in order to avoid failure. Confused? I'm sure you have done this as most of my clients can relate to this podcast.

Weight loss is such a slippery slope. Gaining it back is an even slipperier one. We are so hard on ourself and we often don't exercise self-forgiveness and don't allow ourselves that leeway to go off track. This leads to avoidance and mental anguish that brings us to further and more permanent repercussions. Listen to how easy this can occur and how you can avoid it.

Simply said, we can't control certain things in life…and when we are dieting and restricting this is a slippery slope. This is not because of lack of willpower or self control... there are certain things that impact our decisions under certain situations. Listen to my breakdown and never binge again... or at least do it less often!

As hard as it is to see, weight gain happens much easier than loss. This is simply explained in this episode where I put the facts into reality and bring the ambiguous actions we take into a more concrete spectrum. What goes up must come down~~ !

Are you someone who stress eats? Do you feel like you can't stop after one cookie? Have you labeled yourself as that person who loses control and has no willpower when it comes to enjoying a small splurge so you end up restricting because you can't seem to ditch the "all or nothing" syndrome that has plagued you for years? Or can this all be changed by changing the way you perceive yourself and the way you do things? Stop hijacking your tastebuds and your expectations and fix this matter once and for all!
