155. The Truth About Sustainable Weight Loss
Dec 20, 2024In this episode, Kara breaks down the truth about sustainable weight loss. Forget crash diets and quick fixes—real, lasting change is about building habits that feel good and fit seamlessly into your life. Kara shares practical tips, mindset shifts, and personal insights to help you create a lifestyle that supports long-term health and well-being.
Key Points:
- Sustainable Weight Loss Is a Way of Life:
- It's not about perfection or quick results; it's about building habits you can maintain over time.
- Weight loss is not just about the scale—it’s about how you feel physically and emotionally.
- Focus on Non-Scale Victories:
- Improved sleep, better hydration, regular energy levels, and stronger relationships are all wins.
- Shifting your mindset to notice these victories can make your journey more rewarding.
- The Role of Habits:
- Build habits that align with your schedule and feel good for your body, such as choosing breakfasts you enjoy and sticking to a bedtime routine.
- Long-term success comes from small, consistent actions—like staying hydrated and listening to your body’s hunger and fullness cues.
- Embrace Imperfection:
- It’s not about never eating chocolate or skipping a workout; it’s about what you do most of the time.
- Sustainable weight loss means making choices that support your goals without being overly restrictive.
- The Mindset Shift:
- Stop asking, "What do I have to do to lose weight?" Instead, ask, "What feels good for my body and supports my health in the long term?"
- Learn to love and care for yourself through the process—self-compassion is key.
