Say what? Coping with Careless Comments about Weight

Today’s topic is a juicy one and came up as a result of something Keri recently experienced on a train back from London. Reflecting on how different this experience was compared to previous comments that had put her in a distressed place, Keri wants to discuss what helped her ditch the shame and better deal with insensitive remarks about weight. Most women have probably been subjected to some kind of careless comment, either about their weight or how they look, at some point in their life. ...

How Valerie Escaped Diet Restriction

Valerie has struggled with her weight her entire life. She’s tried everything, been on all the restrictive diets, and her weight has yo-yoed a lot along the way.  A year ago, she had just completed yet another low-calorie weight loss program and was getting ready for a cycle endurance event. Coming off such a restrictive plan and diving straight into intense training meant she gained 30 pounds.  After the event, the disappointment and shame she felt pushed her to get back on track, but in ...

Success story: Nanci Pacheco

Nanci has recently graduated from the six week reset with us and is proud to say she has lost 5 and a...

Breaking the Binge-Restrict Cycle with Cris Berlingeri MD

In Hispanic culture, food is a core element of life.

However, she also experienced the pressures that came alongside that, which led to an extremely negative relationship with food and her body. After becoming a life & weight loss coa...

Self love at any weight

As women, we’re surrounded by TV ads telling us to treat ourselves to a bubble bath, indulge in some nice chocolate, or go for a massage. This is such a huge misconception of what self-love is because these are great things for us to be doing for ourselves anyway.  It’s promoting the outsourcing of our self-love and all of our self-care, when really this should be coming from within. The concept of self-love can be uncomfortable for many women, especially if it’s associated with vanity and ...

Food as Medicine with Dr. Khush Mark PhD

When it comes to nutrition, we often find ourselves looking externally for the answers we want. The reality is that we really have to start listening to our bodies a lot more than we do. What the studies show will continue to change, and new diets will continue to emerge. No one has the perfect answer and there is not one diet out there that is designed specifically for your body. It’s about learning to listen and trust your own body's wisdom. In this episode, we are joined by a very specia...

Calorie counting: a thing of the past?

Whether it’s disguised as points or eating windows, the ‘calories in vs calories out’ model forms the basis of most modern weight loss programs and diets. Most people these days are familiar with calorie tracking apps, calorie calculators and energy tracking devices. Some people even obsess over them in an arguably unhealthy fashion Should we really be focusing all of our efforts on weighing foods, checking calorie content and restricting ourselves to certain calorie intakes? In this podc...

The achievement of failure

‘The achievement of failure’ sounds like a bit of an oxymoron. How on earth can it be an achievement if you have failed?  Often on your weight loss journey, you will have points in time where you believe that you have failed. You’ll feel terrible when something doesn’t go to plan and things are not working out for you as you hoped that they would. Failure is an expected part of the journey. It could be a one-off, or it could last for a week or even longer if the domino effect takes hold. W...
