Ep 125:  We Need More Gray in Weight Loss

Have you ever skipped the gym because you couldn't go for a full hour?   Ever finished the whole bag since you ate most of it anyway?   Ever had dessert at the fancy restaurant even though you were stuffed from dinner?   These are examples of "all or nothing" thinking and they trap us in a cycle of yo-yo weight gain.   In this week's episode of the Weight Loss for Fertility podcast we dig in to the antidote, including the ideas that:   Perfection is a mirage. We often sabotage ourselves by chasing it, whether it's in weight loss or anything else. If we aim for progress, we can see each step, however small, as a victory.   Our sneaky critical thoughts try to rain on our progress parade. They’ve been hanging around for decades, but recognizing and gently challenging these thoughts can make it easier to move forward.   Embracing the 'gray' gives us what we need. Every step adds up. Whether it's a shorter walk or one bite left on the plate, each intentional action gets us closer to where we want to go.   Sustainable weight loss is born in this 'gray' area—where victory is acknowledged in every effort, big or small.
