Ever feel like you're doing everything "right" but still can't figure out why you're overeating? You know you should listen to your hunger signals, stop when you're satisfied, and eat without distractions - but something keeps getting in the way. In this episode, we dive into why the simple tools for weight loss feel so impossibly hard to actually use. We explore the uncomfortable truth about why you can't seem to put your phone down during meals, why you eat like you're being chased by a tiger, and what's really happening when you look down and your plate is suddenly empty. If you've ever thought "I know what to do, I just can't seem to do it," this conversation will shed light on the real barriers between you and mindful eating - and why your resistance to slowing down might be the biggest obstacle of all.

Welcome to my Summer Throwback Playlist—a handpicked collection of the most downloaded episodes of the podcast. These are listener favorites, packed with insights, laughs, and empowered eating encouragement to keep you fueled all summer long. A quick heads up: since these are throwbacks, you might hear old references to programs or events that are no longer active—but the heart of each episode still hits. You can find all the new resources and ways to connect with me in the show notes. I hope you are having the best summer! Enjoy! Let's dive in and revisit the best of the best! I spend more time refereeing at family dinners than I do tasting my food. My attention is on my email (instead of my lunch) when I take my lunch "break." The reality is, mindful eating in a fast-paced, often chaotic environment can be challenging. For me, I had forgotten how powerful it could be and lost the practice. After a trip on my own (without kids and away from emails), I was pleasantly reminded of the wonderful benefits of mindful eating. There are both mental and physiological benefits to eating mindfully, and I want to help you (and me) return to this practice... even WHEN our life is chaotic. Today's episode includes 3 quick, easy tips that you can practice today to build your mindful eating skills. You can do them in the car, during your lunch "break" as you answer emails, or as you wrangle the kiddos at dinner time. Practice one or all three and I know you will feel the benefits and enjoy your food even more!

Welcome back to a new season of The Real Dish! I'm your hostess with the mostess, Chef Mareya, The Fit Foodie and I'm here to dish up real food for thought on how to live well and thrive - especially in midlife.   If you described the way most people live in the U.S. to someone in the south of France or the heart of Madrid, they'd probably blink at you in disbelief. Early dinners eaten standing up. Everything low-fat, sugar-free, gluten-free. Coffee in to-go cups. Eating alone at your desk. Skipping meals to “save calories.” Grinding all day, wearing stress like a badge of honor.   Now picture the opposite: People eating dinner at 9 p.m.    Sipping wine—yes, daily—and enjoying it. Devouring flaky croissants, creamy cheeses, and fatty jamón without guilt. Dessert? Absolutely. Smoking? Still a thing for many (not endorsing it, but yes—it's still culturally embedded). And somehow… they're not just surviving. They're thriving.     The cafés are full of older adults laughing, walking arm in arm, climbing stairs without complaint, dancing in plazas, and frankly looking damn good doing it. It made me stop and ask: How are they doing it? How are they aging well despite what we've been told are the "bad habits"?   It turns out, they've cracked the code. Not by following food fads or counting macros, but by living in rhythm with their bodies, their communities, and their culture.   So today, I want to break down the Top 5 Lessons I learned from this life-changing trip—lessons that I believe can radically shift how we think about aging in midlife and beyond.   Whether you're 35 or 65, this episode is for you if you're ready to live better—not just longer.   So let's dig in!

In this powerful episode, Dr. Stacy Heimburger opens up about the real breakthroughs that helped her lose 90 pounds — and not one of them was about cutting carbs or counting calories.

Dr. Stacy shares the top 3 unexpected mindset shifts that helped her stay consistent, break free from shame cycles, and finally feel in control of her weight — and her life.You'll Learn: ✅ Why planning isn't punishment — it's the highest form of self-care ✅ The #1 question that flipped her motivation switch ✅ How negative self-talk was sabotaging every weight loss attempt ✅ Simple ways to shift your internal dialogue (without becoming a motivational speaker) ✅ A quick planning tip that takes 5 minutes and changes your whole weekReflection Prompt:“Which one of these lessons resonates with you the most?

Summary In this episode, Ali Damron discusses the common frustrations surrounding weight loss, particularly focusing on the unconscious eating habits that can hinder progress. She emphasizes the importance of honest tracking of food intake, recognizing emotional eating triggers, and implementing effective meal planning strategies. Ali shares personal experiences and insights to encourage listeners to be mindful of their eating habits and to seek help if needed. Takeaways Many people struggle with weight loss despite healthy eating and exercise. Unconscious eating habits, like snacking and grazing, can significantly impact weight loss. Tracking food intake can reveal hidden calories that contribute to weight gain. Emotional eating often occurs when individuals are stressed or bored. Balanced meals containing protein, fat, and fiber can reduce the urge to snack. Mindful eating practices can help individuals recognize when they are truly hungry. It's important to be honest with oneself about portion sizes and food choices. Weight loss is not just about diet; it involves understanding emotional triggers. Ali offers free consultations to help individuals with their health and weight loss journeys. The conversation encourages a non-restrictive approach to eating, focusing on awareness rather than elimination.

Why am I always hungry and feel out of control around food? Is monitoring my food intake and tracking every calorie a good way to help lose weight and feel better in my body?These are questions that many clients ask. So, we invited an expert to chat all about mindfulness and listening to our body's signals when it comes to food and nutrition.Today, we talk to Gina Worful, RD, from the Mastering Mindfulness Institute. We cover many different aspects of why we eat, how stress can affect what and how we eat, and how the need to control our food and body can actually back-fire.Gina started the Mastering Mindfulness Institute with the tagline of 'You Don't Need More Control Over Food, You Need a New Approach'. This is a powerful approach that encourages people to self-reflect in order to determine what is driving their eating behaviours, and to approach the food relationship and body image in a different way.Episodes that are related to this concept, include:Episode 74.

If you're a high-achieving woman who has built an empire of accomplishments but still feels like an outsider looking in, this episode will revolutionize everything you thought you knew about your relationship with food and your body. Today we're exposing the truth behind the staggering statistic that 91% of women diet to belong, and why your weight obsession is actually a belonging crisis in disguise. You'll discover the research-backed connection between restriction and worthiness, learn why your "disciplined" identity is actually a prison, and walk away with 4 revolutionary strategies to reclaim your power this summer. This isn't just another episode about food freedom—this is your call to revolution. What You'll Discover ✨ Why 91% of women use dieting as a belonging strategy (and why it backfires) ✨ The Harvard research that proves relationships matter 10x more than weight for happiness ✨ How your "disciplined identity" around food is actually keeping you small ✨ Why validation addiction through restriction is sabotaging your authentic connections ✨ The revolutionary truth about weight, worth, and belonging that changes everything ✨ 3 power practices you can implement this week to break free from the cycle Shocking Statistics Revealed The Belonging Crisis Numbers 91% of women surveyed on college campuses had attempted to control their weight through dieting 22% of women diet "often" or "always" (National Association of Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disorders) 95% of people struggling with food restriction report feeling "different" or "misunderstood" (Center for Mindful Eating) The Research That Changes Everything Harvard's Study of Adult Development: Quality of relationships determines happiness and health more than any other factor—not dress size, not workout routine 95% of diets fail long-term, yet women continue the cycle of restriction 85% of eating disorders start as "normal" dieting behavior Key Revelations The Belonging Wound Your obsession with weight has nothing to do with your weight and everything to do with your wounded belief that you don't belong. You've convinced yourself that belonging is conditional—requiring the right size, perfect discipline, most controlled relationship with food. The Identity Prison You've made restriction your religion and your body your altar. The identity keeping you "safe" from rejection is the same identity keeping you small. When you define yourself as "the disciplined one," you're not building strength—you're building a prison with bars made of other people's opinions. The Validation Addiction Every compliment about your discipline gives you a temporary hit, but validation addiction works like any other addiction—the highs get shorter and the lows get deeper. You need more external approval to feel momentarily worthy. Powerful Quotes to Remember "True belonging only happens when we present our authentic, imperfect selves to the world." - Brené Brown "The belonging you're seeking through their approval will never be sustainable because it's not real. Real belonging comes from the inside out, not the outside in." Your Belonging Revolution Toolkit: 3 Power Practices Practice 1: The Belonging Mirror Method Every morning before checking your phone, stand in front of your mirror and say: "I belong here. In this body, in this life, in this world. Not because of what I weigh, but because of who I am." Then name three things you're grateful your body can do. This rewires your brain from criticism to celebration. Practice 2: The Summer Freedom Food Challenge This week, choose one food you've been restricting and eat it mindfully in a social setting. Maybe it's ice cream on a date, bread at dinner with friends. The goal isn't the food—it's practicing belonging while nourishing yourself. Notice how no one cares what you're eating as much as you think they do. Practice 3: The Energy Reclaim Ritual Instead of over-exercising to earn belonging, move your body in ways that make you feel powerful. Dance in your living room. Walk in nature. Stretch on your porch. Ask: "How does my body want to move today?" then honor that answer. Transform movement from obligation to celebration. Bonus Practice: The Validation Redirect When you catch yourself seeking approval about food choices, body, or discipline—pause and ask: "What validation do I need to give myself right now?" Then give it to yourself. Out loud. With conviction. The Summer Revolution Challenge This summer, stage a revolution for your body, not against it. For freedom, not restriction. For your soul, not your size. Ask Yourself: What would it look like to show up to summer gatherings as the woman who belongs because she's claimed it through courage? What would it feel like to order what you want because you want it, not because you've "earned" it? What would it mean to wear the swimsuit because you realize your body was always perfect for living your life? Research Sources Brené Brown's belonging and vulnerability research Harvard Study of Adult Development (relationships and happiness correlation) National Association of Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disorders (dieting statistics) Center for Mindful Eating (restriction and social connection studies) Ready for Your Revolution? If this episode lit a fire in your soul and you're ready to stop earning worth through restriction and start claiming power through presence, it's time to take action. The belonging you're seeking isn't hiding in a smaller dress size or waiting at your goal weight. It's available right now, in this body, in this moment, as you are.

Ever felt powerless in front of the pantry, like you're watching someone else control the snacks? That creeping shame after a binge is rough. In this candid talk, Lyndsay Soprano sits down with Amber Abila—a woman who's been there, who's been through it, and who found herself on the other side.Amber opens up about her binge-eating journey, peeling back the layers to reveal how dieting, stress, and outdated habits rewired her brain into a food-fueled panic button. She takes us into the real work she did to reset her relationship with food—mindset shifts, self-talk work, mindful bites, and small victories that don't come in bite-sized packaging.Together, they break it down: the difference between real hunger and emotional hunger, the power of speaking kindly to yourself, and how rewriting your food story means seeing your body as an ally—not an adversary.
