In this episode of the Chris Terrell podcast, Chris delves into the importance of learning from failures and reshaping one’s approach to weight loss. He emphasizes the need for sustainable lifestyle changes rather than temporary diets. 


Chris shares insights from his own journey of losing 125 pounds and advises on the significance of shifting from food-based rewards to non-food rewards. 


He also discusses common pitfalls like using the phrase 'I deserve this' as an excuse for indulgence and offers practical tips for maintaining progress. 


Additionally, Chris invites listeners to join his Facebook group, YouTube channel, and the Guild of Champions for further support and community engagement.
