254. How Changing Your Perceptions Will Lead to Better Results

When people join our Mentorship program, they typically struggle with how they perceive and interpret the situations they experience in their life. These perceptions are keeping them stuck and preventing them from experiencing the life they want. They lead to self-sabotage, feeling bad about yourself, unwanted eating behaviors, motivation struggles, and much more. So you can understand how important it is to find and root out these limiting perceptions.

It's normal to have thoughts and urges about wanting to diet. And it's normal to romanticize the good parts of Diet Culture while ignoring the bad parts. We selectively remember and focus on the parts of dieting we did like - body change, "confidence", etc. But we block out the parts we hated - constant food and body obsession, feeling restricted and deprived, never getting long-term results, etc. What isn't normal, or rather - helpful, is letting those thoughts overtake you to the point that you start engaging in old ineffective behaviors. In episode 252 of Fitness & Sushi, Deanna and I walk you through this very common situation and show you how to navigate it effectively so you can get back to making true progress in your health and fitness. In this episode - “What To Do If You Start Slipping Back Into Diet Culture”, you'll learn... 🔶 How to recognize the warning signs of Diet Culture thinking 🔶 Strategies to combat the urge to return to restrictive eating 🔶 How to deal with external pressures to conform to Diet Culture 🔶 Practical steps to recommit to your anti-diet journey 🔶 How to reframe negative thoughts about food and body 🔶 Why Tony is always shocked by Deanna’s dramatic reactions to insignificant things …and much more!

Understanding the influences at play can be really helpful on your Ideal Body journey. Instead of trying to fight your own biology, you can work with your body to achieve your goals. In episode 250 of Fitness & Sushi, Deanna and I are going to explain how your hormones affect your hunger, cravings, and eating patterns.
