Hello, hello, hello. Welcome to Fit and Fabulous with me, Dr. Orlena Kerek. I hope you are feeling amazing today. Today I want to talk to you about why discipline is not the way to help you lose weight, why discipline and self-control are not the way forwards. I am not saying that you don't ever have to make a difficult decision.

Oh yes. Sometimes you do and you have to train your brain. But what you don't want to be doing is constantly, constantly using discipline and using self-control. Now let me explain a bit. So first of all, If you haven't listened to the podcast that I did two weeks ago, I do recommend you listen to that because that's really setting the scene for this podcast.

And that podcast was called How to Stop Self-Sabotaging with Emotional Eating. And we really dived into looking at your negative brain and looking at your positiv...

Midlife can be a challenging time for women. Dr Orlena chats to Helene Stelian to find out why. And of course, what we can do about it to enjoy and flourish in midlife.

A Future Moment From My “Past Self”

We have this wind, which is called the “Truamontana”, like the bull from the wind and it runs down the Pyrenees and it's super cold and windy and all my plants are dead, which is a little bit sad. Why am I telling you this? Because I walked to school with my children today, wrapped up nice and snugly. I have my thermals on.

I have nice warm gloves and jumper, and I have my beautiful, beautiful, lovely snugly winter coat. Now, a few years ago, it was Covid and I remember ordering my coat, and because it was covid and partly because I live in Spain, it took ages and ages for my coat to ...

Hello, hello, hello. Welcome to Fit and Fabulous with me, Dr. Orlena. This is what my son said to me the other day. “I’m done with this persistence thing and PJ's are hard”.

Persistence is Doing Something Even When It Feels Hard

That is what we are talking about today. Let me give you a little backstory and then I'm gonna tell you why persistence is not the key to weight loss, and this is why I think a lot of people have huge, great problems with weight loss is because they think it's all about persistence.

So backstory, my son is 10 and I was working on showing him how to develop plans how to develop certain skills such as initiative and persistence. And so how do you do this for a child? What you do is you see them doing something, you note what they say and you say, wow, that must take persistence.

So for example, with him, Oh, Sebastia...

The biome is all those trillions of microscopic organisms that live in your gut. They help you digest food and have a big impact on cravings, weight gain or loss and our behaviour.

It might be that your biome is working against your goal to lose weight and be more healthy. It might be contributing your carb cravings and making it difficult for you to stick to your healthy eating goals.

The good news is that the biome can also help with weight loss.

How do you get a "helpful" biome instead of a "working against you" biome?

9 biggest mistakes I see when it comes to healthy weight loss and healthy living. And how to fix them!

1. Underestimating “the small changes” (e.g. eating chocolates whilst watching football.)/ Trying to make it difficult.
2. Not planning so they end up hungry and no healthy food/ not loving healthy foods
3. Not making it “routine”
4. Skipping meals and waiting “until they’re hungry” to eat (and then eating unhealthy foods.)
5. Feeling overwhelmed, as if there isn’t enough time in the day to do everything./ Not taking care of their own emotions.
6. Stress and how we think about things.
7. Finding yourself eating sugar without thinking about it and then beating yourself up for it.
8. Life happening
9. Giving up and not prioritising/ staying in the same rut

Or "I do eat healthily (and still want to lose weight)"?

These are ALL dangerous thoughts.  And here's why...

It's not about whether they're "correct" or not.
It's about whether they're helpful.

They aren't.
