Why “I Deserve This” Is Sabotaging Your Weight Loss [Podcast #716]

What this episode covers

Why "I Deserve This" Is Sabotaging Your Weight Loss I want to talk about a sentence that sounds completely reasonable, feels completely fair, and quietly undoes more progress than almost anything else I see. The sentence is: "I've been so good all week. I deserve this." By the end of this episode, I want you to hear that sentence differently than you ever have before, because it is not as innocent as it sounds. You Were So "Good" Until Friday Night Picture this.

If you could get past the problems you're having with your eating and your weight, the problems discipline hasn't fixed, then how easy could weight loss become for you? If you resonated with what I shared during the podcast and recognized yourself in it, if you run your whole life with real discipline and it only falls apart around food in certain moments, I want you to really hear this: the verdict you've been carrying of, "I'm just not disciplined enough," was never accurate. The case against you doesn't hold up. If you'd love to break free of this, you can, and it's what I help my coaching clients do when I personally coach them out of the st...
