James was constantly on and off the diet wagon. He tried Atkins, South Beach, Calorie tracking, and intermittent fasting. He lost weight with all of those. They all worked … for a little while. But they felt restrictive and burdensome. And he would always quit and gain all the weight back. He lost and regained the same 20 pounds for years and years. Sound familiar?

He started to think - I’m different. There’s something wrong with me.

Then he thought - Maybe I just need to find the “right diet”.

But then he found a totally different model … a totally different approach to losing weight and being healthy.

Listen to James tell his story from years of struggle, mental turmoil, and a toxic relationship with the scales … to … low-stress success with his body.

Here are some snippets from his story . . .

I could stick with it for a few weeks, but I could never do it for long.

I was going through this cycle where I would get on the scale after I ate bad and then I would feel terrible about myself.

If the scale went down, I was happy. If it went up, I was mean to myself and to others.

I felt terrible, weak, and undisciplined.

Should you eat carbs? Should you not eat carbs?

Should you eat eggs? Should you not eat eggs?

I thought I just needed to find the right diet.

What is BMI?

Is BMI accurate?

Is BMI outdated?

Is BMI a good indicator of health?

How do I get BMI down?

The good ol’ BMI. It’s been terrorizing people for many many years. We all know how it goes, right?

Go to your doctor. They weigh you. Then they show you the BMI chart and tell you that you need to lose weight. And you go home and cry because what the BMI says is such a low number and you feel like there’s no way you’ll ever get there.

You’ve been trying to lose weight for so long! And it’s just so dang hard!

If you connect with any of this, then this episode is for you.

It’s time to ask some questions, demystify, and debunk the Body Mass Index. Plus, I’ll provide some very specific steps on how to find your “best weight range”. Grab a pen, you’re going to want to take notes!

Sometimes I have an interaction on a coaching call and I’m like “this is pure gold”. And I KNOW it would be so helpful for all of you amazing podcast listeners, but I totally respect that those conversations are private and I usually just let it pass. But every now and then I might reach out to the person and ask for their permission to share it on the podcast. That’s exactly what recently happened and exactly what this episode is all about.

It’s not perfect or scripted. It’s real, raw, honest, and off the cuff.

Interestingly, I believe it’s a great follow-up to the last episode, because we talk a bit about goals and what’s next for Audrey. As she was talking, I don’t think she realized it at all, but there’s just so much truth and so much insight. And I wanted you to get a glimpse of what REAL life-changing results sound like.

This podcast is all about being real - REAL people … REAL goals … REAL results … REAL insights … REAL life change. Also . . .

If you want to know how to achieve your pre-baby weight, then you might want to listen to what Audrey has to say ;)

Do you have a weight loss goal?

Should you write your goals down?

Should you read your goals everyday?

When it comes to goals, there are so many questions, suggestions, and “experts” telling you what to do. And if you ever meet with a trainer or nutritionist, there’s a good chance their first words might even be - Okay, what are your goals?

Goals are everywhere! And they’re so important, right? I mean … goals are good, right? Ehh, they can be. But it’s not always that simple.

There’s a fundamental truth in life that definitely applies to your goals. It can possibly even cause your goal to work against you and maybe even cause you to quit to your diet or weight loss program!

Today, I’m going to explain this “basic truth”, two problems that it can cause when it comes to your body and losing weight, and then I’ll give my specific recommendation on how to avoid these pitfalls. Plus, I’ll offer my two cents on the best way to pursue your weight loss goals.

Didn't have time to write show notes.

Listen to the episode and it will all make sense ;)

Maybe I’m just a weirdo or I just think too much, but I often see parallels and lessons from so many life events that I believe we can learn from to help us in other areas of life.

This happened recently when Hurricane Helene passed over where I live in the state of Georgia and then went on to have a devastating impact on parts of Tennessee, western North Carolina, as well as parts of south Georgia.

There are probably hundreds of things we can learn from this hurricane, but today, I want to share 5 things this storm taught me about our brain, body, and your pursuit of weight loss (and really, just life in general).

We’ll cover . . .

• How our brain is wired to react to scary stuff
• Something that’s true with storms and just about everything else in life
• The wise thing to do when we’re worried or overwhelmed
• The good part about really bad things
• How a “nervous system fire” might be making you miserable

One of the most common mistakes I see is something called the “Junk Drawer Syndrome.” It can negatively impact your weight loss efforts, but that’s not all. It can also cause issues in just about any area of life. As if that’s not bad enough . . .

This “junk drawer mentality” often keeps you from getting the help or guidance you need, which will tremendously slow down or stall out your progress. Then, if we’re not careful, it might lead to shame, embarrassment, confusion, and maybe even an unhealthy mindset where our pride and ego takes centerstage.

In this episode, I explain what “Junk Drawer Syndrome” is, the problems it causes, and why we do it. Then I offer some questions and suggestions to help you avoid falling into this common mental trap.

Are you really tough on yourself?

Do you struggle with procrastination?

Have a hard time making decisions?

Do you just feel mentally exhausted?

When it comes to losing weight, do you feel the need to “start fresh Monday” after you mess up?

If you answered “yes” to some of these questions, then this episode is for you. It’s an episode especially for us perfectionists. We might mistakenly see it as a badge of honor, but it just might be crippling you, causing more harm than help. You’re about to learn why and how perfectionism impacts your life and weight loss efforts.

We’ll cover the 3 things that come as a package deal with perfectionism. And, if you’re ready, I’ve got 5 tips to help you overcome perfectionist tendencies and live a life with more freedom and less stress!
