Honest Truths: You Can’t Force Weight Lo...

KAT RENTAS
About this episode

Are you being your own worst enemy on your weight loss journey?

Forcing yourself into weight loss can feel like an act of self-betrayal.

In this episode, we'll explore why pushing yourself too hard on your weight loss journey is more about being harsh than being helpful. You’ll discover why being mean to yourself is a choice, and there’s an alternative approach available for you now.

We’ll discuss:

→ The pressure of "I should have figured this out by now" and how to address these judgments

→ The crucial difference between having pressured thoughts and actively indulging them

→ Strategies to stop treating yourself like a drill sergeant and start nurturing yourself as the caregiver you deserve

→ Acknowledging the changes and efforts you’ll make before any weight loss shows on the scale

Imagine a version of you that’s on your own side: compassionate, supportive, and holding your own hand through the journey of naturally healthy eating and permanent weight loss.

That’s the standard we want to set when solving this problem for the last time.
