Ep. #236: All Things Weight Loss Part 2 - The Good and Bad

In today’s episode of the podcast, Coach Jenn joins me again for part 2 of our 4-part series of All Things Weight Loss

We discuss the tools of weight loss, the good and the bad of those tools, and our perspective on it.

Tools such as diets, weight loss surgery, and weight loss medications are good for short-term weight loss.

The problem with these tools is that they don’t deal with the mental weight.

These tools don’t teach you how to deal with mental stress and how to feel your emotions.

They don’t teach you how to find comfort in other things and heal your relationship with food.

To lose weight long-term, you have to be able to do it in a way that you can for the rest of your life.

When you start to change the mental weight, you start to think something different and amazing things can happen.
