In almost every weight loss program there is a focus on behavior modification. In other words, what are you going to do differently from your regular food routine in order to lose weight? Behavior modifications are basically what I refer to as the “Gotta Do Ems.” Behavior modifications focus on keeping portion sizes reasonable, limiting the processed foods you choose, staying away from added sugar, doing some sort of exercise… you know - the behaviors that lead to weight loss! Today, however, I’ll be talking about the EMOTIONAL changes you may want to look into that will lead to weight loss and help you stay engaged in the behaviors that keep that weight off. If you, like many, are able to lose the weight but struggle to keep it off, then this episode may help you unlock some essential tools to make it easier for you to lose weight and to keep it off. Listen in for information to help you live your best life at a healthy weight for your body!
