Episode 170 | Coaching for a Kind Weight Loss Mindset

New Yummy Mummy Experience client, Carolyn, joined me to get coached about struggling with food cravings, changing her thought patterns, and setting goals with soul.

YES, you’re going to get so much out of this episode today to help you on your journey!

Carolyn is enjoying retirement between the two locales she calls home – California and Idaho – and is DONE struggling with her weight at this phase in her life. She’s ready to lose weight for the last time, and that’s exactly what she’s going to get in YMX. 

Today’s episode is a sneak peek of the work we do in YMX when a Yum Mum faces an obstacle to their weight loss progress, and we dive in to solve it. 

In Carolyn’s case, she was carrying around a specific thought that was creating a feeling of inadequacy:

“I don’t lose weight easily.”

Seems harmless enough on the surface, right? It might even seem like a fact. But the reality is it’s a sentence in Carolyn’s brain creating the feeling that she’s incapable of weight loss. And what does Carolyn (or any of us) want to do when she feels incapable? Give up. 

We broke down exactly how our thoughts create our actions which then create our RESULTS. To get the results we want, we talked about using thoughts that DO serve us instead of ones that DON’T – no criticism or toxic positivity needed. 

It’s time for a kind weight loss mindset. Listen in and you’ll hear more about:

• Learning from the past versus making it mean we failed

• The motivational triad and how that affects our brain when losing weight

• How to use the concept of ‘net positive’ when making food choices

• The power of baby steps instead of black-or-white thinking
