Imagine this…the weather is starting to get cooler, and it’s time to get out the winter clothes. You’ve been doing great, working hard with managing your portions, making some solid choices and feeling truly proud of yourself. But that box of winter clothes looms and you can hear the ominous eerie music in your head. Will the jeans fit?

You put on those jeans for the first time this season - and of course they’re freshly washed and not stretched out at all, so they’re kinda tight. A little snug.

And all that great work you’ve been doing, all those positive thoughts you’ve been cultivating, go out the window. Your brain goes straight to its old favorite soundtrack, “This will never work.”

You start thinking, What’s the point? And then… you hide. You stop planning your food. You stop reaching out to your AG. and You eat because it feels like there’s no point in trying anyway.

Why does your brain do that? Why does it shut down motivation the second there’s a bump in the road?

In today’s episode, we’ll cover:

• Why overwhelm makes your brain time-travel into hopelessness
• The sneaky science of why motivation disappears at the first sign of “failure”
• How to stop performing and start learning — so your brain stays on your side

As well as how to trade “ugh” for “hmmm” and find your way back to confidence.

Are you ready to wrangle overwhelm and win back your motivation? Aw yeah.

Let’s go!

One minute you’re feeling pretty good about your food choices, and the next you’re spiraling because the scale didn’t move, or you ate a handful of chips? Maybe you’ve actually been doing fine and even had some good wins, but your brain finds the one thing that wasn’t perfect and decides that this’ll never work.

And you catch yourself thinking, “What is wrong with me? Why can’t I just stay consistent?”

Your brain isn’t broken—it’s just doing its job. That it’s actually trying to protect you, even when it drives you off course?

Today we’re diving into what it means to be at the wheel of your brain.

• why your brain automatically looks for problems,
• how to handle those “old stories” that pop up again and again,
• and how to steer your thoughts on purpose so you can keep moving forward with confidence.

BOOK: You Are A Miracle

Have you ever thought, “ok I get the whole normal eater thing and I want to be a normal eater... but I still want to lose weight”?

Like, you’re totally on board with the idea of dropping diet rules, but you also don’t want to drop your goals? You want to trust yourself and see the scale move, but part of you still wonders, “Can I really have both?”

Because it feels like the moment you start caring about the number on the scale again, you’ve somehow betrayed your new, chill, “normal eater” self. Or on the flip side, if you don’t think about weight loss, you worry you’re giving up on your goals. And that can feel confusing. It’s like your brain doesn’t know how to want progress without turning it into another diet. So how do you find that middle ground — where you’re not obsessing, but you’re also not pretending the scale doesn’t exist?

If that’s where you are right now, this episode is for you.

This episode is the sister episode to our last one, “How to Go from a Dieter to a Normal Eater.” In that episode, we talked about the shift from following rules to making choices — how the big difference isn’t about food, it’s about how you think about food. You learned that dieters follow rules, while normal eaters make choices.

how normal eaters think about food, how they handle overeats, and how they make maintenance feel livable.

Today, we’re building on that. Because once you’ve learned to eat like a normal eater, the next question becomes, “How do I keep that mindset while still wanting results?”

In this episode, we’ll cover:

• how to stop thinking in diet rules and start thinking in results,
• how to treat your eating habits like an experiment instead of an exam,
• and how to lose weight in a calm, confident way that doesn’t undo all the progress you’ve made in trusting yourself.

As well as how to finally stop asking, “Am I doing this right?” and start asking, “What’s working for me?”

So if you’re ready to build on what we started last week and learn how to be a normal eater who still sees results,you’re in the right place. We’re bringing science, sanity, and a sprinkle of sass to the scale today.

Let’s go!
