Confident Eaters

It's common for many of the people we work with to desire to lose weight. However, many of them have been on and off the diet roller coaster for a large portion of their life, and can get burnt out from pursuing a goal of weight loss solely. Sometimes, clients decide that they want to work towards a different goal, such as performance in exercise, maintaining current habits, or body acceptance.When working with our clients, one of the most important part of our jobs as coaches is to stay attuned to the clients goals, which often evolve over time and through different seasons of life. In this episode, join us as we discuss how we help clients think through when they want to keep working toward weight loss, and when they desire to change what they focus on for a goal.If you've ever been confused yourself thinking, "I don't know if I wanna lose weight or if I wanna go after something else", this episode is for you.01:22 Introduction to the Confident Eaters Podcast01:47 Balancing Client Motivation and Goals03:53 Overcoming Weight Loss Challenges05:13 Consistency and Lifestyle Adjustments08:20 Activity Levels and Weight Management10:52 Body Acceptance and Realistic Goals17:11 Focusing on Body Functionality21:16 Conclusion: Your Body, Your GoalsConnect with Georgie and the Confident Eaters Coaches: WebsiteFacebookGeorgie's Instagram Christina's Instagram Have you ever thought, "I know what to do, I just need to consistently do it"?

Today, we join Georgie and her client Chelsea once again. Chelsea has been making great progress, and you will see that she's somebody who has always taken a very easygoing approach to meeting her goals to lose body fat and weight while still enjoying her life and having a good time practicing for competitive dance, which she engages in regularly.As you hear right from her own lips, she has made so much progress without suffering because she has been patient, because she's allowed the process to take the time that it takes. She's improved her habits and her body has changed, and she knows that it will continue to change without suffering. Another helpful point of this conversation comes up about what to do when you feel like not cooking. When you just don't have the energy, the days when you're tempted to Door Dash or just pick up something on the way home or go through a drive-through. We want Chelsea (and you) to know how someone can be in that state and still get nutritious food without necessarily forcing yourself to cook. We hope you enjoy the show!

In today's episode, we are going to talk about some of the things that our clients have raved to us recently about. Sometimes, more than one of our clients will really love a certain product or app independently, so we have been keeping track of those things to share with you in case you could use some of these tools. There's some pretty cool stuff that's come around, from air fryers, to instant pots, to walking pads. But we want to make it clear that we're not here just to tell you to buy more stuff! You can just eat well and move and not need any products or purchases to support you in that. However, the whole reason this podcast exists is because it's not always simple and it's definitely not easy to eat well, maintain a healthy weight or stay fit.Guidance and tools can be helpful and even necessary to succeed. And most importantly, they can make the whole process more fun and enjoyable.

If you’ve resolved year after year to lose weight without seeing lasting results—or tried to stop caring about weight altogether but found it impossible to let go—you’re not alone.In this episode, we dive into a recent conversation from Georgie’s client, Kelly, whose struggles echo what so many experience. Maybe you've also tried to take steps which should be effective at reducing your body weight, like eating more fruits and vegetables, drinking fewer sugary beverages, and learning to eat because you're hungry, not just bored.It might be that the consistency of your practice hasn't added up to being quite enough to show a meaningful difference on the scale. If you're thinking that sounds like you, then we want to help give you some direction. If you're looking for a better, bolder goal than just to "lose weight" this year, this episode is for you.Connect with Georgie and the Confident Eaters Coaches: WebsiteFacebookGeorgie's Instagram Christina's Instagram Have you ever thought, "I know what to do, I just need to consistently do it"?

Maybe you are like many people we work with: you know how you want to eat, but your actual eating often looks pretty different. This can happen for all sorts of different reasons, but some of our clients can narrow it down to the ever changing environment of their life.Maybe you travel often, making your home in several countries in any given year. Each stop means a different kitchen, different grocery store, and different routines. Or maybe you aren't a constant international traveler, but perhaps you have felt that changes to your routine or lifestyle throw your eating into chaos. Whether it's a new job, a new school schedule, client meetings for work, a new family member, pet or roommate, these varying meal environments can sometimes make you feel trapped, like you can't possibly have good habits with your lifestyle. Join Georgie and Christina as we share some of the solutions that work well for our clients and prove to yourself that you can actually lose weight despite an ever changing environment with the 4 components of the Art of Adaptability.

Could your boundaries use some work? If you've struggled with your health and weight for some time, you might be able to pinpoint it on certain life stressors, a demanding job, an injury, genetics, or the belief that you lack discipline. Sometimes, however, hidden factors like low self esteem and lack of healthy boundaries play a much bigger role in weight gain than people imagine. Luckily, we can improve these with some intentional work, and it contributes to success in permanently losing weight. That's what today's episode is all about. We coaches at Confident Eaters help our clients choose the most effective skills for each individual so that they get the most results out of their efforts. How would you know if working on boundaries is worthwhile for you personally? Well, we coaches have to make that determination all the time. In this episode, join Georgie and Christina share not only how we determine which clients could use help with their boundaries, but also a few steps you can take to start practicing today!And, as always, if you would like some support practicing your own boundaries or you have a question you want us to answer on the podcast, we'd love to hear from you!

When people are trying to change their food patterns, it's not always as straight forward as "just doing it". Why is that? What we see with our clients is that all sorts of things can get in the way like emotions, cravings, and food preferences. Join Georgie, Maryclaire, and Christina as we discuss what the research says about food cravings, what influences them, and how we can help our clients who deal with them. We cover a range of questions in this episode:Do food cravings have anything to do with a nutrient deficiency? Are they related to hormones?Do they have anything to do with your physiological state? Or are they just psychological? How does marketing play a role in your food cravings?What is the difference between food "liking" (or preference) and a craving? What can you do if you are impacted by food cravings? Many of of the people we talk to are interested in getting to the bottom of their food cravings and we are here to talk about it. We hope you enjoy this episode! And, if you would like some support in your health journey or you have a question you want us to answer on the podcast, we'd love to hear from you!

We are back again with another episode to discuss TREATS here at the Confident Eaters Headquarters! In the previous episode, we talked about evaluating your treats for worthiness. We also pointed out that not all situations are ones where a treat can be fully enjoyed. We also touched on how FOMO can trick us into eating more treats than we would want to be consuming in order to make progress toward weight loss goals. If you missed Part 1 of this episode, check it out HERE. A lot of our clients reached out after listening to that first episode on treats and said they found it helpful and that they could always use more strategies for managing these low nutrition foods like chips, desserts, or donuts, while trying to lose weight. So welcome to Part 2!If you would like some support learning how to reduce treats without falling into diet mentality or you have a question you want us to answer on the podcast, we'd love to hear from you!
