I went to the Cheesecake Factory last night. To some of you, that reads as something bad. To me, it was a wonderful time.
However...I woke up with some less-than-constructive thoughts this morning. In today's slightly vulnerable episode, I'll walk you through how I'm getting rid of unnecessary guilt, as I'm doing it, in real time.

Do you have to hate your body to change it? Do you have to be angry at yourself to lose weight? Do you need to speak negatively to yourself to get it to stick?
On the second anniversary of my video where I took my shirt off at the boardwalk for the first time, we're going to talk about all of the reasons the self-hate approach hasn't worked for you yet, and what to do instead. It gets pretty emotional toward the end.

Are you stuck in a plateau? In this episode, I work with Matt on how to start moving forward again after an incredible 102 pound weight loss.
For Q&A episodes, I do not read any of the questions before answering them! This way, you get something more valuable than just the answer -- you get the process of how I arrived at it. That way, you can begin to solve your own problems more effectively on your journey.

Throughout my life, I didn't do enough for myself. Any time I faced resistance in pursuit of self care or wish fulfillment, I'd take it as a sign that the thing I wanted wasn't meant for me.
"No hopes", I'd repeat to myself, reasoning that it was better to not have hopes at all than to have them and see them crushed.
This past weekend, I pushed past it all to do something good for myself. To prove to myself I'm not destined to press my nose against the glass of life forever.
I want you to do the same.

I'm in a measured calorie deficit for the first time in a while. IT'S HARD.
But I'm not hungry all the time. In fact, I hardly ever am, and I'm losing weight. Today I'll talk about how, and also talk about why it's still difficult anyway. This is how you can get past all the same obstacles to get the same results.

I overthought the intro of my own show, and it sent me into a self doubt spiral. A show I do every week! I should know how to start it. But I thought about it too much, and psyched myself out. I literally convinced myself I couldn't intro my own show.

Can you name ONE person that truly deserves the kind of self hatred that you impose upon yourself?
In this episode, we discuss how to work through self hatred by proving -- with indisputable logic -- that it doesn't actually make any sense at all.
Today's questions:
-Can I name one person who deserves to feel the way I do about myself?
-What is truly similar between me and that person?
-What is different between us?
-Why do I still feel compassion for that person anyway?
-How can I feel compassion for me?
-Who is this self hatred truly serving?

I'm about to starve my cat. The vet said she's too fat, so we have to put her on a special diet and bring her out to exercise and whatnot. But that sounds complicated and expensive so I think I'm just going to stop feeding her.
If you're a normal person, that paragraph upset you. And yet, you've looked in the mirror and said the same thing to yourself. Why wouldn't you starve a cat, but you'd starve yourself?
This week, I talk about standards you're holding yourself to that you're not holding anyone else to, and why it's slowing down your progress.

How to beat procrastination, impostor syndrome, negative self talk, motivation burnout, a lying scale, the mirror, & more in this Discord Q&A episode.
I take questions from out Discord Community and read them for the first time on the show, so that I don't have time to prepare, and you can see my process in giving an answer. I feel that the method by which I get my answer is just as important for you to hear as the answer itself, so that you might be able to solve your own question next time. But I'm always glad to answer!
