"I want to lose Xlbs"

"I want to weigh Xlbs"

"I need to lose Xlbs"

Why? What is YOUR why? Is there a legitmate reason? Legitimate benefit?

All success is made easier when you have a clear purpose and motive.

"Someone I know lost 30lbs in a month, so I want to do that".

What is with our obsession with rate of weight loss? We act as if the faster it comes off the more impressive it is. Or if we "get it over with" it will somehow be easier.

But isn't being a lighter version of yourself a result of living like a different version of yourself? So to be that person, you likely need to be there for good. Why then, would intense bursts of unsustainable habits be the desired route?

Weight loss is a side effect of lifestyle habits, and sustained weight loss is a result of finding enjoyment and passion from your new lifestyle habits.

Dichotomous thinking runs rampant in the United States. "This or That", forces good and bad, right and wrong, passing and failing. Food is not that simple. The dichotomy of healthy and unhealthy leads to useless feelings of guilt and fear all while distracting us from our true goals. #lonelyfoods #spreadthehealth #lifehack

Body Fat is very misunderstood. Our culture and it's dichotomous thinking always seems to label things as good or bad. Body fat is yet another topic that looks less like a vote and more like a bell curve.

Great resource noted in this podcast is "The Secret Life of Fat" By Silvia, Tara, available on Amazon: https://amzn.to/2LXhL1O

Optilife can be your lifestyle assistant, accessible anywhere internet is!

Today's Podcast is particularly special during a time of year when most feel they are "failing" at their diet or weight loss goals. Are you failing or are you grading yourself incorrectly?

It's time for a new grading system. Stop using the F word, stop competing and start living with intention.

The holidays are done and now it's time to break out the detox tea and the portioned containers. After weeks of indulgence, the only logical conclusion is an equally polarizing month of "punishment". After all, the holidays were meant to be dreaded and guilt ridden right?

Let's skip all the BS above, and change the mindset on health, holidays and definitely what January 1st represents.

In this episode we dig into the documentary recently aired on Netflix called "The Game Changers". We work through the misleading information and stance, dig into the flaws in their "report" of research, and discuss relevant information and take home messages.

*NOTE: At the end I briefly discuss Cholesterol and it's role in the body. To simplify I use it interchangeably as fat in a couple sentences. For more information on what I discussed, download "Good Calories, Bad Calories" by Gary Taubes, which offers citations of the research supporting my comments. Additionally, for more details on what Cholesterol is, Medline offers a simply but effective overview at https://medlineplus.gov/cholesterol.html.
