169. How to Change the Way You Talk To Yourself

Do you realize how important the way you talk to yourself is?

What we say about food and our bodies is a major predictor of how we eat and care for ourselves.

What you’re currently saying to yourself almost guarantees that you’ll continue engaging in the same behaviors and getting the same outcomes.

The key, then, to changing your behaviors and the results you get from them, is to change the way you’re talking to yourself.

Good news – you have 100% power over your self-talk.

In today’s episode I’m reviewing Words to Eat By by Karen Koenig and you’ll learn what is useful vs useless self-talk, understand why you’ve been stuck in unhealthy patterns for so long, and how to make your self-talk conscious, constructive, and serving of a higher purpose, including the exact words to say to yourself in moments when you’re faced with immediate food, exercise, and body image, related challenges.

Few things are as frustrating as seeing the scale go up – especially when you’re trying to make it go down (or stay the same). ⁣

On this 10-min episode, I’m sharing what to do if the scale is creeping up so that it doesn’t send you into a tailspin. ⁣

You’ll learn how to differentiate between short term fluctuations and actual fat gain, and what to do if you’re experiencing the latter so you can turn things around. ⁣
