Your Ideal Body isn’t dictated by superficial beauty standards. Nor does it have anything to do with changing your body so you’ll feel accepted by others or deemed beautiful and worthy by society.

Your Ideal Body isn’t even a what - it’s a when. It’s the body you’re in when you’re no longer obsessing over your food and body. It’s when you’re comfortable and confident in your own skin. And it’s when you’re living your full life experience without fear of judgement from others or from yourself.

For the last decade, thought leaders and world-class transformation coaches, Tony and Deanna Schober, have been plugging people into their Ideal Body Formula™ so they can ditch diet culture and naturally achieve their own unique Ideal Body by improving their relationships with food, body, exercise, and mind.

From Tony’s binge eating disorder and debilitating body image struggles, to Deanna’s food and body obsession and yo-yo dieting, they’ve been there and done that. And now they’re helping others overcome these same struggles.

Show topics include:

emotional eating
weight concerns
intuitive eating
limiting beliefs
body acceptance
binge eating
body image
exercise empowerment
self-improvement
healthy eating
habit change
success mindset
mindful exercise
active lifestyle
motivation
body shame

So check an episode out that resonates with you and get ready to have your life change.

119. How to Stop Falling Victim to Diet Culture’s “Eat Less, Move More” Advice

August 22, 2021 10:00 - 41 minutes - 41.6 MB

🟡 Telling people to “eat less and move more” to lose weight is like telling people to “spend less and make more” to get wealthy. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Stating the obvious isn't helpful. What's helpful is understanding WHY these behaviors aren't being sustained and HOW to effectively ensure their outcomes. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ To be clear, the real goal of eat less / move more is to create an energy deficit. But eating less and moving more is not always the right approach to achieve that deficit. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀...

T23. Less listening and more doing (after listening to this episode, of course 🙂)

August 19, 2021 10:00 - 13 minutes - 11.9 MB

Your health and fitness journey will start to stagnate any time your input/output ratio gets out of alignment. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Lately I’ve been focused on language learning and acquiring fluency in Spanish. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ And as I usual when I study things outside the fitness space, I see all kinds of parallels to my fitness journey, and I discover new ways of understanding the struggles that go on there. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ And today I’m going to share with you the input/output parallel and what you...

🟡 Our insecurities can get in the way of us doing the exercise we want to do. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Whether it’s at the gym or somewhere else in public, we worry about what others are thinking. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Am I doing this exercise right? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Are people judging my body? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Do I look like an idiot? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Am I strong enough to be doing this? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Are people watching me? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ These fears keep us from going to the gym or doing physical activity that’s fun ...

August 10, 2021 10:00 - 24 minutes - 25.3 MB

Do you feel like food is something you turn to for comfort during hard times, stress, and negative emotions? We all need to cope with these feelings, and if you're turning to food, you're not weak, you just developed a maladaptive coping tool over the years.

D20. When you're eating instead of feeling

August 03, 2021 10:00 - 18 minutes - 20.7 MB

Most of us were not taught how to manage our emotions as children, and so we did the best we could as we grew up. Many of us used one of the most easily accessible tools - food - to distract us from Big Feelings, and now aren't sure how to stop the pattern. On today's solo episode, Deanna coaches guest Diana through addressing a lifetime of emotional eating so that she can learn to process her feelings, become more resilient to them, and feel more in control with food.

117. How to Handle When You’re Doing Everything Right But Your Body Isn’t Changing

August 01, 2021 10:00 - 48 minutes - 47.7 MB

🟡 Just because you’re “doing everything right”, it doesn’t mean your body is going to change. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It’s entirely possible that in order for you to lose weight, you’d have to engage in calorie intakes, behaviors, or make sacrifices that would actually diminish your overall life experience - even if weight loss is an outcome. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ That’s why it’s important to know the limits of your biology/psychology and when your pursuit of weight loss takes you out of alignment with health...

T21. Why most people struggle with permission-based eating

July 29, 2021 10:00 - 18 minutes - 20 MB

Permission-based eating is often misunderstood as a license for having a free-for-all. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ A lot of people, when given permission to eat what they want, suddenly start seeing the equivalent of dollar signs with food. Their eyes light up. It’s party time. And then they struggle to get out of that initial phase of eating all the foods they had placed off limits. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In today’s solo episode, Tony helps you understand the true purpose of permission-based eating and what the ...

D19. Ditching the diet mindset

July 27, 2021 10:00 - 24 minutes - 25.4 MB

The dieting mindset is responsible for disordered eating patterns, inconsistency with healthy habits, and believing your value and worth is equal to the size of your body.

T20. Here’s what’s really getting in the way of your best life

July 22, 2021 10:00 - 12 minutes - 11.8 MB

What most of us don’t realize is all we’re really trying to do in life is get back to that state of wholeness where our true life experience begins. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So the solution isn’t really to pursue goals of excellence - it’s to let go of the baggage that is keeping us from living as our whole selves where unlimited potential exists. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In today’s solo episode, Tony shows you what’s really standing between you and who you want to be so that you can stop wasting your time on t...

July 18, 2021 10:00 - 45 minutes - 41.4 MB

🟡 Living up to society’s expectations of what your body should look like is exhausting, and hyper-focusing on conforming to societal standards can be harmful to our lives. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But living on the opposite end of the spectrum, where we don’t care what anyone thinks of us at all, is unrealistic for us as human beings. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We’re wired to care, and we’re wired to want to conform. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So rather than spend all of your mental and emotional energy either trying to conform...

July 15, 2021 10:00 - 21 minutes - 23 MB

What makes a diet harmful? When does your diet turn into a form of dieting?   It’s important to know these things because dieting is rarely a sustainable way of eating, which means any results you might experience will be temporary. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In today’s solo episode, Tony breaks down 10 characteristics of dieting you’ll want to avoid if your goal is long-term transformation. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If the episode was helpful, consider leaving a 5 star rating and review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ...

July 11, 2021 10:00 - 49 minutes - 48.3 MB

🟡 Your emotional eating struggle can’t be solved by manipulating your food or body. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Yet time and time again people ignore this all-too-common struggle and instead opt to restrict calories, track macros, cut out sugar, or try to lose weight with the hopes it’ll solve all their problems. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ And the result? They suppress their emotional eating in the short term by doubling up on willpower and discipline, only to see this unresolved struggle eventually boil back to the s...

July 08, 2021 10:00 - 17 minutes - 18.9 MB

What if you can’t stop eating after you start? Will you ever not want the cookie over the salad? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In episode 114 of Fitness & Sushi, these questions and mor...

T17. Getting over your insecurities

July 01, 2021 10:00 - 14 minutes - 16.5 MB

Insecurity is a result of living two different identities - one identity that you put out to the world, and another you keep to yourself (also known as your authentic self). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Insecurity is the gap between these two identities. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In today’s solo episode, Tony explains this insecurity gap and what you need to do to close it and put an end to your insecurities. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If the episode was helpful, consider leaving a 5 star rating and review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ...

June 20, 2021 10:00 - 46 minutes - 46.1 MB

🟡 It can be difficult to explain your Ideal Body journey to people who have only ever known diet culture. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The idea that losing weight isn’t the primary goal for someone who is working on healing their relationships with food, body, exercise, and mind, can be hard to understand for some people. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ They might wonder what the point in all your work is if you’re not going to lose weight.

T15. The #1 thing that determines how much you eat

June 17, 2021 10:00 - 15 minutes - 17.2 MB

We live in a society that worships small bodies and demonizes fat. The messages are everywhere, and most of us have been absorbing and internalizing these messages since we were children.

112. How to Know if Weight Loss is Even Possible For You

June 13, 2021 10:00 - 42 minutes - 42.2 MB

🟡 Losing weight is possible for everyone, but just because it’s possible, it doesn’t mean it should be something you pursue at all costs. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ “Possible” is not free from side effects and consequences. Even if you have good and virtuous reasons for wanting to lose weight, your biology, psychology, and lifestyle might have other plans for you. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t attempt to lose weight at all. It just means you have to understand what you’re getting your...

June 10, 2021 10:00 - 8 minutes - 11.5 MB

111. How to Get Past Your Fear of Wearing a Swimsuit This Summer

June 06, 2021 10:00 - 48 minutes - 48 MB

🟡 Wearing a swimsuit shouldn’t be a reward for looking good enough or acceptable to society. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Yet year after year we feel resistance to wearing one, so we address this resistance by trying to lose weight - further reinforcing the belief that your worth is tied to your body. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We think that looking a certain way will make us immune from judgement and criticism, but in reality, this mentality is the very thing that makes us so susceptible to judgement and a suboptimal ...

May 30, 2021 10:00 - 44 minutes - 43.7 MB

🟡 Your thoughts and emotions influence your behaviors. Therefore, having a healthy relationship with your mind is a necessary part of achieving your Ideal Body. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ An unhealthy relationship with your mind leads to self-sabotage, motivation struggles, and a suboptimal life experience. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ By fixing your mindset you create a foundational framework that all other relationships (food, body, and exercise) can be built upon.

🟡 Your relationship with exercise (and physical activity in general) determines how consistent you will be with it and whether you’ll be adherent long enough to get all the potential benefits. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The problem is a lot people don’t have a healthy relationship with exercise. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ They do exercise they hate in an effort to change their body.

🟡 Of all four of the relationships that make up your Ideal Body (food, body, exercise, and mind), your relationship with your body is arguably the most important one. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Why?

May 06, 2021 10:00 - 16 minutes - 18.7 MB

Just a quick episode announcing the Podcast Promo Giveaway Winners. We randomly selected live on the show the winners of both the Ninja Blender and the Ninja Air Fryer. And then we announced the winner of the $100 gift card too. Thank you to all who participated. If you didn't win please know that we greatly appreciate your kind words and support! We'll be reaching out to the winners to get your details to send you your prizes.
