Ep. 447 - You Want the Weight Loss, But Do You Want What It Takes to Get There?

from The Chasing Health Podcast · host Chase Smith

SummaryWanting to lose weight is easy. Doing the things that lead to weight loss over and over again is the hard part.In this episode, Chase and Chris talk about the big difference between wanting a result and being willing to follow the process that creates it. You may want to lose 30, 50, or even 100 pounds. You may want more energy, better health, more confidence, or freedom around food. But those results come from hundreds of small choices made over time. The process is not always exciting. It can mean tracking your food when you do not feel like it, eating similar meals, going for walks, getting enough protein, working out when motivation is low, and getting back on track after a hard day. Chase and Chris explain why you do not have to love every part of the process, but you do need a process you can accept and repeat.They also talk about why motivation eventually fades, how confidence comes from keeping promises to yourself, and why your actions need to match the results you expect. If your current plan feels impossible to follow, the answer may not be to try harder. You may need a simpler plan that actually fits your life.This episode will challenge you to look at what you say you want, what you are actually doing, and whether the two truly match.Chapters(00:33) Do You Want the Result or the Process?(02:07) Your Actions Have to Match Your Goals(03:05) Do You Actually Want What It Takes?(04:53) What Happens When the Honeymoon Phase Ends?(06:41) The Boring Basics That Create Big Transformations(08:07) Why Motivation Will Eventually Let You Down(09:26) Where Real Confidence Actually Comes From(11:53) Getting Through the Boring Middle(13:07) You Don’t Have to Love the Process(14:04) Why Results Take Longer Than You Want(15:19) Small Daily Actions Add Up(16:16) Stop Obsessing Over the Scale Without Looking at Your Consistency(18:12) When Your Goals and Actions Don’t Match(19:15) Is the Process Hard, or Is Your Plan Wrong?(21:05) A Sustainable Plan Has to Include Real Life(22:34) Your Choices Reveal Your Real Priorities(24:52) Be Honest About Your Level of Commitment(27:26) Build a Life That Supports the Results You WantSUBMIT YOUR QUESTIONS to be answered on the show: https://forms.gle/B6bpTBDYnDcbUkeD7How to Connect with Us:Chase’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/changing_chase/Chris’ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/conquer_fitness2021/Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/665770984678334/Interested in 1:1 Coaching: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/1on1-coachingJoin The Fit Fam Collective: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/fit-fam-collective
