Burn Fat With Your Brain with Maggie Sterling

In this episode, we discuss the importance of slowing down and tuning into your body's signals when trying to lose weight. Your habit brain may be telling you to react quickly and eat, but your higher brain knows what you truly want. To listen to your higher brain, create pauses between urges and actions, and consider tools like timers, reminders, or journal prompts. Recognize that the work may feel challenging at first, but gets easier with practice. Finally, regulating your nervous system through exercises like deep breathing or walking can help you better connect with your higher brain and reach your goals.

In this episode, Maggie discusses the concept of creating mental guardrails to help with weight loss, particularly when trying to lose the last 5-10 pounds. She emphasizes the importance of finding strong internal motivation and reasons for wanting to lose weight, as external motivators like upcoming events are often not sustainable. Maggie also explores the idea that having a small weight range can lead to more negotiation and overeat ing, as the consequences don't seem as significant. She encourages listeners to decide whether they are content with their current weight range or if they truly want to push for the last few pounds, and to set up their own mental guardrails accordingly.

Hey everyone! This epsiode was probably one of the top 3 episodes that I got positive feedback from, so I am reposting it! If you have already heard it, I think its even worth a re-listen!

In this episode, we discuss the idea that true weight loss begins with self-acceptance. Many people believe that the key to weight loss is simply eating less and exercising more, but this narrow view ignores the underlying emotional and psychological factors that contribute to weight gain.

We explore the concept of treating ourselves with kindness and compassion when it comes to our bodies and our weight.

We discuss the importance of developing a healthy relationship with food, rather than viewing food as a source of comfort or punishment. We also talk about the benefits of mindfulness and self-compassion in weight loss efforts, and how to move away from a focus on perfection and self-criticism and towards a more positive, accepting attitude towards oneself.
