You gotta be objective.

🙂 It desensitizes you to the normal weight fluctuations your body makes daily. We KNOW that it’s physically impossible to gain 5 whole pounds overnight,it’s just water weight. Sso after a week or two of seeing some wild stuff,, you’ll just say “whoa, last night’s take-out pizza really blew me up!”

😀 Mood is no longer weight-dependent. Always in a bad mood on weigh-in day? Track your daily readings in an app and get yourself a cute little graph. If you see that, despite all those ups and downs day to day, you’re in a losing pattern, you learn not to sweat it when you see the number. There’s already enough to be moody about. Not this.

😀 It gives you good data: if you can see that your weight trend is going down overall, it confirms you’re on the right track. And if it doesn’t? You can make some educated changes to get in a losing pattern.

😀Last...it keeps you honest! You'll quickly notice what happens when your habits are off for a few days. If you see it faster, you can fix it faster, and that leads to better results.

Surely, if you become absolutely obsessed with the numbers and don’t learn to objectively look at the scale, you might have some problems. Play it by ear. Give it a try, but stop if it’s mentally unnerving.

Not here to make intuitive eaters mad...

Because it legit says in books about intuitive eating that it's NOT MEANT FOR WEIGHT LOSS.

This is about losing weight, and there's only way to do that.

So you might call weighing and tracking food obsessive, but I call it...

Guaranteeing your success.

Yes, slow thyroid makes it harder.
Yes, PCOS poses lots of problems, BUT...

NO, that doesn't excuse your body from the laws of physics.

Calories in, calories out.

That needs to be addressed first.

The BEST way to do that is with accurate tracking both what you're earing and what you're burning.

Tech is making that easier than ever.

Tap follow and I'll show you exactly how to track accurately and make data-based adjustments to your lifestyle plans to lose weight.

People are SHOCKED when they discover how much support members get inside the Healthy Habit Support Network (HHSN).

DON'T push it away.

Read that again!

As a dietitian, I've seen people try to cold-turkey sugar.

It's not pretty.

They do well for a little while, feel really good about themselves (and often tell others how bad sugar is and how good they're being)...

And then crash....hard.😩

They binge out on sugar after all of that pent-up restriction sends them straight down the barrel of a Pez dispenser at midnight, after waking up from a cold-sweat dream about oatmeal cream pies and thin mints.

Why Pez? Because they desperately dug it out of the Christmas box after purging all of the good stuff out of the cabinets.

You might think this is a signal that someone is 'addicted' to sugar.

"Poor bastard", you might say.

It's really a symptom of restriction.

I've found that eliminating restriction and adding in sugar in ways that also manage pre-diabetes is the BEST way to tackle things.

Do you need to have SOME self-discipline? Of course!

So here's what you do:

1. You have a little piece of cake. And you enjoy the HECK out of it. Also, it helps to have it right after a protein-rich meal to balance out the sugar. If it isn't possible to do that, try taking a piece of cake home to have after your next meal.

2. Work with a dietitian to show you more tips on how to manage or possibly reverse a pre-diabetes diagnosis. One that doesn't involve your grandma's sugar free candy or saying no to cake.

Winter mood got me like...

I don't want to do anything.

I know I SHOULD do something, but I'm definitely not jazzed about it.

But being excited to do something is something you only do 1% of the time.

The other 99% is you just taking one tiny step forward into the cold, icy abyss.

Do. The. Thing.

I'll be here doin' the things too 😕

WTF is nigella?

Had to look that one up myself, and when I realized it's a specialty item I can't find easily, that recipe went to the bottom of the barrel.

Listen, we all fall for shiny things on the internet. When you're trying to lose weight and feeling insecure about it...a fancy meal plan FEELS like the right answer.

I'm a dietitian and I used to write custom meal plans for people.

According to them, it was "all they needed".

I told them what to make, when to make it and how much to eat.

They never followed through...

It was TOO strict. TOO different from their normal eating habits. TOO much change.

We all need new recipes and ideas BUT...

Completely overhauling your diet in one week is madness.

If you want simple recipes with recognizable ingredients and NO PRESSURE to make over your diet completely...

That sums up the holidays...

Right at that spot it's easy to keep packing on bad habits.

"What's another day of this?"

Nope!

Stop feeling sorry for yourself.
Accept that making a change is gonna be hard.
Recognize that it's worth it.

Because on the other side of the work you put in?

That's where you feel good physically.

You feel good about your efforts. You can be proud of yourself.

That's all you need.

So...where do you go from here?
