144 ~ Holiday Sabotage

Send us Fan MailThe holidays have a sneaky way of making weight loss harder than usual. In this episode, I’m talking about holiday sabotage, and that includes sabotage from other people and the sabotage we do to ourselves.As the season ramps up, weight loss can feel like it is being challenged from all sides. Family comments, food pushers, passive-aggressive coworkers, unsupportive partners, and people who think your body and your plate are open for discussion. Add old memories, emotional triggers, and holiday stress, and suddenly everything feels heavier than it should.In this episode, I break down what holiday sabotage really looks like and how to deal with it without blowing up your progress.In this episode, I cover: • What holiday sabotage actually looks like • The difference between sabotage and enabling • Why one-size-fits-all advice does not work when it comes to family and social dynamics • How emotional sabotage can be just as powerful as food • When it makes sense to speak up and when it is better to let it go • How sabotage from others can turn into self-sabotage • Why preparation matters more than perfection • How awareness can keep you out of the emotional eating spiralI also explain how to use my 3A Way system during the holidays: Awareness of what is coming Acknowledgement of how it feels Accountability for how you respondThe goal is not to have a perfect holiday season. The goal is to get through it without turning on yourself. Sometimes having a strategy is the strategy.If the holidays feel harder than you expected, you are not failing. You are human. Stop using guilt as a motivational tool and give yourself some breathing room.Thanks for watching. If you found this helpful, please like, subscribe, and share.
