157. The Day Starts the Night Before: 5 Simple Evening Habits for Weight Loss Success

What if the key to a healthier tomorrow started tonight? In this episode, Lisa Oldson, MD shares a simple but powerful idea inspired by a New York Times quote: "The day starts the night before." If you've ever found yourself making impulsive food choices, skipping workouts because the day got away from you, or staying up too late scrolling your phone, this episode is for you.Dr. Lisa breaks down why preparation, not willpower, is the real driver of healthy habits, and she draws on wisdom from productivity experts David Allen (Getting Things Done), Stephen Covey (The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People), and behavioral scientist BJ Fogg (Tiny Habits) to make the case that small, consistent evening efforts create outsized results.Whether your goal is weight loss, lower cholesterol, better health, or longevity, you'll walk away with a practical, five-point evening checklist designed to reduce impulsive eating, protect your sleep, and help you show up for yourself every single day, no elaborate meal prep required.Thanks for listening!
