Hello, hello, hello. Welcome to Fit and Fabulous with me, Dr. Orlena. I hope that you are feeling amazing, amazing, amazing today. Today I want to talk a little bit about mindset. Now that you know that mindset is the foundational piece of all the changes that anybody wants to make and really the idea of getting to what I call healthy, amazing you is a combination of habits.

And you know what? We have habits in the way that we think, and we have habits in our emotions, as well as obviously habits in what we do.

Hello, hello, hello. Welcome to Fit and Fabulous with me, Dr. Orlena. I hope that you are feeling amazing. Now, big question for you. Did you watch the Repay or Tend Live, the workshop last week, which was Letting Go of the Stress and Struggle of Weight Loss? If you haven't seen it or listened to it, you can Listen to it, you can still watch the replay.

And in that workshop, we talked about, oh, the so dire, dire, dire statistics that are weight loss statistics, which basically say it's difficult to lose weight and out of the people who do lose weight, a big whopping 80 percent of people put that weight back on within five years. And so the big question that we are asking at the moment is, okay, this doesn't sound great.

But, how can we be one of those statistics, oh my goodness, this is a word that I cannot say, success statistics. How can you be one of the people who loses the weight and keeps it off? So, if you didn't listen to last week's...

Hello, hello, hello. Welcome to Fit and Fabulous with me, Dr. Orlena. I hope that you are feeling amazing. I hope that you are feeling excited about the prospect of getting to healthy, amazing you in 2024. Today, I want to talk a little bit about stress and struggle because, hey, remember on Thursday, we are doing the workshop, Letting Go of Stress and Struggle of Weight Loss.

And we're going to be having a look at why is it that so many people struggle Hey, have you seen the statistics? I tell you what, the statistics on weight loss are absolutely horrendous. For all the people who lose weight, and about a third of America is trying to lose weight, for all the people who lose weight, after 5 years, 80 percent put back on what they have lost.

Which means only 20 percent of people keep it off for 5 years. Isn't that kind of a scary and demoralizing thought? But, I think it's also interesting because if we examine why that is, it's going to give us the road map to,...

Embracing Healthy Living and Sustainable Weight Loss

Hello, hello, hello. Welcome to Fit and Fabulous with me, Dr. Orlena. I hope that you are feeling amazing today. Okay, today, hard love day for you today, my friends, I want to ask you some hard questions, and I'm gonna tell you a very personal story. Now, my questions that I want to ask you are, Are you truly committed to yourself?

Commitment to Self: The Foundation of Healthy Changes

And where are you selling yourself short? Where are you not investing in yourself? Not necessarily in terms of money, but in terms of things that you can do to really and truly look after yourself. So, a couple of personal stories for you. I went and had my smear test. Oh my goodness. It was in January now, and as I record this, it is the 1st of September.

Happy September everybody. So at that time in my life, there was a lot going on in my life. My son was unwell. We were going through, oh my goodness, being admitted to hospital and not...

Hello, hello, hello. Welcome to Fit and Fabulous with me, Dr. Orlena. I hope that you are feeling fabulous today. Today I want to talk to you about how to stop eating treats or junk food in a social environment. And I know that this can be such a big hurdle that so many people face. I have so many people who say to me, oh my goodness, I eat healthily except...

My husband makes it really difficult because he brings home treats the whole time, or my family cook for me and they cook me this, you know, treat food that I don't really want to be eating or I'm going out to a social situation and there's cakes and cookies and things like that, and I feel obliged to eat it.

So this is a really big hurdle and I think it's one of the most difficult hurdles to get over in terms of healthy eating. So before we talk about this, I...

The Chocolate Cake Story: Finding Balance in Indulgence

My son, who is 15, he loves, loves, loves making chocolate cake now. Admittedly, he makes chocolate cake for birthdays and special treats. It's not something that he makes every day, but my son doesn't do things by halves. He's not the kind of person who takes on board what I'm trying to teach him about healthy eating. He's like, "I'm gonna throw in loads of sugar and loads of flour and loads of chocolate and loads of cream."

And he ends up with this decadent, amazing chocolate cake, which is great for birthdays and exciting things like that. Now I...
