The All-Consuming Struggle of My Weight #152

from Coffee in the Corral · host AJ

This week I talk about something that makes me very uncomfortable to talk about. Discussing my weight feels embarrasing but I also felt it was important to share. We are all tempted to struggle with our weight and some of us, (I’m talking about me), can get hyperfixed on a certain number. But we don’t have to stay stuck in that shame-filled space.Today I share:-The reason I weighed myself-The slippery slope afterwards-How 5lbs hijacked my brain-The tools I used to return to a healthy mindset-My committment to myself-My new favorite podcast! (see link at the bottom)-Realizing I am a horrible friend to myself-What if we already won?-Happiness is a choiceHere is the link for the Simon Sinek interview!Click below or find it on the podcast, Modern Wisdom #964 Simon Sinekhttps://open.spotify.com/episode/7jymUFu6DpeQQHuNvvU6rh?si=Nx9YaBymSRaLw4shGGCrMw
