Ep 165:  Feeling Motivated to Lose Weight? Here's what to do.

from Weight Loss for Fertility · host Stephanie Fein, MD

It’s the first week of 2026. New calendars, new ambitions, and if we’re honest — maybe the same old worries about our bodies.   That siren song of “New Beginnings” is everywhere. What if you could harness that wave of motivation and ride it—without all the self-judgment, restriction, and heartache that usually washes ashore?   Tune in to this week's episode of the Weight Loss for Fertility podcast to discover:   Why the traditional “new year, new you” diet approach actually damages self-trust—and what to do instead   How to spot—and gently uproot—all-or-nothing thinking so you can avoid the wild swings between broccoli-only and Doritos-for-dinner.   How using the hunger scale and food dates creates sustainable, guilt-free weight loss—even (and especially) during fertility treatments.   So if you feel that spark of New Year motivation—fantastic! We’ll use it as fuel for lasting change, NOT another cycle of guilt, restriction, and rebound.   This year, learn a gentler, sustainable way to release weight and nourish your fertility dreams. Start right now.
