Weight Loss For Busy Physicians

Today's topic is such an important one that I’m dedicating a whole episode to it. What am I talking about? Experimentation. We don’t know exactly what is going to work to support your body, but we can always figure it out by trying new things and seeing what works—and what doesn’t. In this episode, I’m inviting you to reconsider how you approach experimentation when it comes to weight loss so you can take away the drama and begin trusting your body again.

Today I'm covering a topic that I promise will apply to everyone who is listening: giving yourself permission to be human. That means giving yourself permission to make mistakes, to fall down, and to be perfect in your imperfection.

There might be something holding you back and affecting the way you show up in this life that you’re not even aware of: your beliefs. What many of us don’t fully understand is that we can actually limit ourselves with our beliefs because we think we’re telling ourselves the truth about what we believe—whether it’s what our bodies can do, what we can achieve in life, or how much weight we can lose. So in this episode, I’m talking about the concept of belief setpoints and how once we start to realize that our beliefs are putting self-imposed limitations on us, we can shift that mindset and become and achieve more than we could ever imagine.

Today's topic is something that I have coached on so many times, and it’s something that all of us do—even if we may not even realize it. I'm talking about motivating ourselves by beating ourselves up. This is a huge issue because it not only hinders us from moving forward, but it’s also something that can be so insidious we don’t even realize that it’s happening.
