How to Train Your Brain for Success: A killer Mindset Strategy for Weight Loss

Sustainable Weight Loss for Women Over 40 with Lhasa

**Episode Summary:**
In this episode of the *Sustainable Weight Loss After 40 podcast, I dive into the often-overlooked aspect of weight loss: mindset.
This episode is all about understanding and overcoming those mental and emotional blocks that keep us stuck in old patterns.
I share how focusing on the problem instead of the solution can trap you in a cycle of negativity. Using my own experiences, I explain how a simple indulgence, like a donut, can spiral into a day of self-doubt and frustration, leading to more unhealthy choices. The key is to ask better questions and train your brain to focus on solutions rather than dwelling on the negatives.
Here are the key takeaways:
- **Shift Your Focus:** Instead of asking, "What's wrong with me?" start asking, "What's my next best step?" This small change in mindset can help you move past mistakes quickly and get back on track.
- **Celebrate Progress:** Acknowledge the small steps you've made, even when it feels like you're off track. Recognizing progress helps keep you motivated and focused on your goals.
- **Resilience Over Perfection:** This journey isn’t about being perfect; it’s about how quickly you can recover and recommit after setbacks.
I also emphasize the importance of staying conscious in your weight loss journey. Since much of our day is spent on autopilot, bringing a little awareness can make a big difference in achieving your goals.
