117: Throwing Out the Diet Rules and What To Do Instead

Too Much on Her Plate with Dr. Melissa McCreery

Throwing out the diet rules sounds good, but when you’ve lived your life in the shadow of the weight loss industry, it can be really confusing to think about what you’ll do if you don’t follow a program this January.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

• Reasons diet mentality is so seductive
• Clues to recognizing diet mentality and deprivation thinking
• How to make food decisions that don’t make you want to rebel
• Why focusing on a food plan is never the best first step (and the first step I recommend)
• A pep talk for your brain when you start to slide into diet mentality and deprivation thinking
