Dieting is not a way of life with Nikki Naab-Levy & Isabelle Barter

I am thrilled to have my colleagues and friends Nikki Naab Levy and Isabelle Barter on today to dive into all of the messy, nuanced parts of weight loss, self care and dieting.The big topic we’re talking about is the statistic that 95% of diets fail. What does that actually mean? What is failure? Why is this happening? And what can we do about it? As always, the three of us are candid and personal and have no problem saying the things other people often hesitate to. Here’s what we get into:The lack of education around the risks of weight loss and how weight loss actually happens Why self trust is at the core of of this work and what that actually looks likeWhy learning internal cues is more important than following external rulesHow to bridge the gap between wanting to lose weight and also learning to eat with intention, awareness and self careYour personal history with food and dieting plays a huge role in when and if weight loss is a good choice for youWhy coaching is one of the best tools for navigating this processHow to shift away from the urgency around dietingThe tradeoffs that exist between losing weight and your well beingHow and why figuring out what foods work for you is the foundation of all of this workThe way you actually make changes around how you feel around food (hint, its not a diet)Connect with NikkiWebsiteInstagramPodcastConnect with IsabelleWebsiteInstagramConnect with JordanaFind me on InstagramSign up for my Monday newsletter with lots of nutrition, exercise and mindset tipsLearn more about 1:1 coaching on my websiteConnect with JordanaFind me on InstagramSign up for my weekly letter with personal stories and nutrition, body image and mindset tipsSchedule a free discovery call to talk more about working together Listen to more episodes of The Diet Diaries
