Raise your hand if you’ve ever taken to social media to get advice and it felt like the floodgates opened and you were inundated with responses.

Go on, raise your hand, I’m raising mine too. I think we’ve all been there.

Asking questions on social media can be a bit of a double edged sword, though.

Sure you might get some legitimate advice from people who know what they’re talking about, but you’re also going to get a lot of advice from less than qualified (albeit well-meaning) people.

I see questions about weight loss so often and although we want there to be black-and-white answer, the truth is, it depends.

In today’s episode of The Live Diet-Free Podcast, I’m giving you four questions to ask yourself to make decisions for yourself based on your individual circumstances and not the loud opinions of people on the internet.

Weight loss plateaus are the worst.

There’s nothing more frustrating than feeling like you’re still doing all the right things but what used to work just…isn’t, anymore!

You immediately start to wonder if you need to switch something up, if maybe it’s your hormones, the dreaded “starvation mode,” or if there’s just something with with you.

(pssst…I can guarantee it’s not “starvation mode”)

On today’s episode of the Live Diet-Free Podcast, I’m joined by EA Coaching’s resident dietitian, Lauren Moss, to help you get to the bottom of your weight loss plateaus and figure out what to do next.

What would you try if you believed that you would succeed?

For Brenda, it’s losing 20 pounds, dropping 2 clothing sizes, and, oh ya, a 100 mile gravel bike ride!

In today’s client spotlight episode of the Live Diet-Free podcast, Brenda shares her tips for building confidence, consistency, and an attitude of, “why not try?”

I know you’ll be inspired by everything she has to say.

Struggling to get from where you are to where you want to be?

You’re not alone.

Actually making the changes to get from A to B is a lot easier said than done?

Until now.

On this week’s episode of the Live Diet-Free podcast, I’m reviewing How to Change by Katy Milkman and sharing with you 7 tips that will help you make the necessary changes to reach your goals.

(The last one is SO important.)

Have you lost weight in the past only to start gaining weight back once you let your foot off the gas a little?

Like so many of the women I’ve talked to about this very thing, you’re probably convinced that you’ll never be able to lose that weight in a sustainable way.

You’ve told yourself that in order to stay at your goal weight, you’ll have to live life in a constant state of restriction and maintenance is for other people, but not for you.

That something inside of you must be broken, because everyone else seems to lose the weight and keep it off without the struggle you’re having.

Sound familiar?

You’re absolutely not alone in believing that, but I want to assure you that there’s nothing wrong with you.

This episode of The Live Diet-Free Podcast address all of this and more.

“Emotional intelligence”…for weight loss?

You read that right!

On this week’s episode of the Live Diet-Free podcast, I’m joined by EI Educator, Ashley Valliere, who’s teaching us what it is, why we need it, and sharing practical tips to work on developing it to do things like overcome emotional eating!
