We eat because we think thoughts.
Listen in to discover thoughts you might be thinking that are keeping you from weighing your dream weight.
My guess is that you think a lot of thoughts (I did!) that don't serve you, your health or your natural weight.
Then you eat unnecessarily and then you cause yourself to feel stuck and helpless. This episode has got you!
And it will tell you what to think instead so it becomes easy to stop eating for reasons that do not serve you!

Regardless of why your body changes – childbirth, weight gain, weight loss, fitness – it can feel totally disorienting when you realize you have no idea how to dress the body you’re in.
Maybe the kinds of clothes that used to look cute no longer do, or maybe it’s always been kind of a struggle to find styles you look AND feel good in!
And what the heck do you do when your body is still changing? Maybe you’ve lost some weight so your old clothes no longer fit, but you’re not at your goal weight, yet… What then?
My lovely friend, stylist Tannya Bernadette, came on the pod to share her know-how with us so we can actually enjoy getting dressed in the morning. For over 15 years, Tanya has been helping people from all over the body spectrum develop a personal style that makes them look AND feel great.
Her insights might surprise you! Like when she said body type isn’t the ONLY thing you need to think about when it comes to buying clothes…

In this VERY special interview, I chat with my BFF and client, Zoe.
This episode is proof that losing weight for the last time is not black and white. There is room for AND and BOTH.
Hear how Zoe made it possible to get to her dream weight AND still eat pizza and drink the way she wants to.
She shares how she was able to really be present in the celebration of her mom's life instead of being worried about her weight or distracted by it and instead present. She talks about her confidence in finding her dream job after doing this work.
And the BEST part? She airs a bit of my dirty laundry that only a true BFF can know!

Diet culture has done us no favors. Because honestly, who gets excited about obsessing over every calorie and restricting entire food groups to lose weight? It’s no wonder we develop patterns of procrastination.
How many times have you said, “Diet starts Monday!” and that particular Monday never actually arrives…
Or that you just need to do a little bit more research before you’ll feel ready. You’ll lose weight right after reading a few more articles or books or creating a huge pros and cons list…
Or you save all your food and body goals for a different season of life: right after tax season, right after kids go back to school, right after the holidays…
If you connect with all that (and I’m raising MY hand over here), you’re going to love today’s guest, Priyanka Venugopal. She’s a board certified OB GYN physician turned stress and fat loss coach for type-A working moms. I’m SO excited to welcome her back to the pod to talk about how procrastination affects your weight loss goals.
Spoiler: it’s a BIG obstacle to losing weight.
So how do we get past procrastination and finally create a clear path to losing weight for the last time?
Listen in and hear all about:

The next bio hack is here.
But it isn't a gimmick.
Continuous Glucose Monitoring is all the rage for a reason. Monitoring your glucose can give you so many insights into your health and help you lose weight for the last time.
Tune in to hear what CGM's are in the first place, why I love them, how you can benefit and how to go about doing this for yourself.
I use levels to monitor my blood glucose and some of my clients have used and recommend NutriSense, in the past I have also used auvon to intermittently check my blood glucose levels.

Pod swap alert! This episode was recorded with my friend and nutritionist Jenny (@jennythenutritionist on all the things) to release on both our podcasts, Yummy Mummy and Create Your Shape.
And in this episode, we're smashing the whole freaking idea that things with your body and weight just get worse with age. Because no, mama, that's not true.
Something Jenny's and my work has in common is that we frequently help women in their 40s and beyond to look and feel WAY better than they did in their 20s.
This whole idea that aging is a downward spiral is a MYTH. Especially when it comes to losing weight for the last time. You absolutely have the option to get better with age. You just need the right roadmap for how to get there.
And it's your lucky day, because Jenny's work is helping women understand the science behind food and their bodies to create a nutrition routine that runs on autopilot.
Listen in and you'll hear more about:
Why it's so important to balance your blood sugarHow to learn and trust your body's signalsNutrition or exercise; which packs the biggest weight loss punch?Self-acceptance and creating your own ideal bodyWant to chat more about if YMX is right for you?

Tell me. Have you ever heard yourself say, "I just want to be able to eat like a normal person."
I know. I used to say this too.
But when I really uncovered what normal means I realized I don't want to eat normally.
I want to eat extraordinary.
Because when I eat this way I create what I want - which is a naturally thin me and an extraordinary life.
My guess is this episode will unlock some normal but toxic thinking that will free you from diet mentality.

We have a VERY special guest today, Kat, my friend and fellow weight loss coach.
What's super fun about Kat is she is a weight loss coach for perfectionistic type A women. She teaches women to lose weight WITHOUT the hustle which means in this episode we talked about perfectionistic tendencies and what that looks like when it comes to weight loss and healthy eating.
Because NOT every person who struggles with these things even identifies as a perfectionist!
But maybe you treat yourself like a robot? Maybe it's hard to leave room for your human nature when it comes to weight loss? Maybe you want to do everything perfectly -- never eating too much when you come home from work, never going off your meal plan -- and when you don't, you'd rather just throw in the towel…
Sound familiar? Trust me, you'll want to hear this episode in FULL because it's SO relatable and you'll walk away with tangible tools you can implement today to help you start healing your relationship with your body and pursuing lasting weight loss.
Listen in and you'll hear more about:
Healing by accepting your messy human natureHow to create the weight results you want without perfectionism and hustleParallels between science experimentation and creating weight loss resultsThe trap of the 'eating right' versus 'eating wrong' mentalityDid you miss joining YMX for April enrollment? No worries! The next round of Yummy Mummy will be kicking off soon, so be sure to get your booty on the waitlist for the July 2024 YMX cohort! \ Resources from the episode:

You guys are in for a super special treat today because we have actual Yum Mums here to share their experience with you. So if you need a little inspo or a seed of possibility, this podcast is going to give you that.
Jana is a mother and grandmother living in the Phoenix Valley. She’s lost 40 pounds in Yummy Mummy.
Lindy is also a mother and grandmother who lives in California and she’s lost 30 pounds so far.
Susan is a mother of 5 living in Wyoming and is down 30 pounds since joining Yummy Mummy.
Their backgrounds might be different, but there are many things these women have in common:
They had tried all the things… Meal replacements, weight loss challenges, and diets. Watching the scale go down and then back up, over and over. Feeling stuck. Feeling doomed to the cyclical weight loss/weight gain experience forever, whether due to genetics or feeling helpless to change.
They used all those crappy past results (which were not their fault) as evidence that they couldn’t do it. And that’s what they believed, until the Yummy Mummy Experience (YMX) showed them another way.
Now Jana, Lindy, and Susan have the mindset tools AND the practical day-to-day tools to help them avoid emotional eating, to embrace a well-lived life, and to free themselves from food worry so they can be more present with their families.
That’s what the YMX delivers - food freedom and the option to lose weight for the last time.
Because it IS an option. You get to choose it. And YMX guarantees you will succeed. So get this episode in your ears and get the inspo you need to explore YOUR weight loss possibilities.
The April round of Yummy Mummy is kicking off TODAY, so be sure to get your booty over PRONTO to join the April 2024 YMX cohort!

I'm super excited to chat more with you about something near and dear to my heart – why diets often leave us feeling defeated, and the solution for achieving weight loss once and for all.
You've tried diet after diet, only to end up right back where you started, feeling frustrated and discouraged. Sound familiar? Well, you're not alone. But fear not, because I'm going to spill the beans on why this happens and how we can break free from that cycle.
Most diets crash and burn because they miss the mark on what's really causing our struggles – things like wonky hunger hormones and mindset roadblocks. That’s exactly why we address those root issues in the Yummy Mummy Experience (YMX).
This program isn't just about shedding pounds; it's about reclaiming your power, embracing self-love, and enjoying the journey to a healthier you. We're talking personalized plans that actually make you excited to hop out of bed in the morning – yes, seriously!
I know what you might be thinking – "But Laura, what about the time commitment? What about the cost? And how on earth do I get my partner on board?" I've got answers for all of that, too! Trust me: investing in yourself is the best decision you'll ever make.
But don't just take my word for it – I've got some incredible success stories from real Yummy Mummies who've transformed their lives with this program. These testimonials give me all the warm fuzzies because I think about how much these women have overcome to be able to lose weight for the last time. And you can, too.
APRIL IS HERE and that means the next round of Yummy Mummy is kicking off SOON, so be sure to get your booty over to learn more about the April 2024 YMX cohort!

Is the Yummy Mummy Experience right for you? This episode is designed to help you decide.
I'm gonna share with you a lot of real-time, real life conversations that I've had with clients over email and in DMs who were on the fence, who couldn't decide if they should do this.
If you’ve been wondering this for yourself, just know you're not alone!
SO, at its most basic level, The Yummy Mummy Experience (YMX) is a six month group coaching and course that guarantees you lose weight for the last time.
But really it’s SO MUCH MORE than just that. It’s science-backed, it’s a built-in support system, it’s community with other women on the same journey, and it’s ALL rooted in self-love.
Today I’m going to share exactly how we go about losing weight for the last time, which includes my holding your hand step-by-step all along the way.
In YMX, every client’s plan is DIFFERENT. Because you’re all different. Different bodies and biologies and lifestyles and needs. And no matter what their plan is, clients are constantly telling me how easy it feels to follow YMX.
We’re not doing keto or carb cycling or counting macros, no tracking calories in-calories out. It’s the ease and effortlessness YMX provides that makes this program so different and so sustainable.
Now, does that mean there won’t be any hiccups or mental freakouts or self-doubt along the way? Of course not! We’re humans here. Losing weight for the last time is a big task, but YMX makes sure you’re up for it with all the support and tools you could possibly need.
Listen in to this episode and you’ll hear more about:
The steps involved in losing weight for the last timeHow balancing your hormones affects your weight lossWhat it means to rewire your brain and how YMX helps you rewire for successHow YMX supports the often-overlooked emotional component of losing weightWhy incorporating self-love is such a game-changerAPRIL IS HERE and that means the next round of Yummy Mummy is kicking off SOON, so be sure to get your booty over to learn more about the April 2024 YMX cohort!

Heads up for an extra-super-duper-crazy-special episode. You've been warned!
Yum Mum Alum Yvette joined me for an episode to talk about all the ways the Yummy Mummy Experience (YMX) changed her personal experience of food, eating, and her body for the better.
Wife, mom of two, and pediatric dentist in Chicago, Yvette was schooled from a young age to soothe with food. If the emotion you were feeling was "negative," the answer was always the same: eat.
Not shockingly, this led to Yvette internalizing the belief that experiencing anything other than 100% happiness was a problem. Only life doesn't quite deliver us 100% happiness, does it? So Yvette felt stuck the other 50% of the time that she felt less-than-stellar. So, as taught, she ate about it, and spent years thinking the hopelessness she felt was inevitable.
After a few months in YMX, Yvette is 20 pounds down to the size she was in high school, only THIS time, she's finally shed those emotional eating patterns that held her back for so many years.
As a result of the work she's done in YMX to overcome emotional eating, Yvette finally feels hopeful, healthy, and has a beautiful, empowering self-care practice to rely on.
I love her story SO much and I know you will, too.
Listen in to my conversation with Yvette and you'll hear more about:
- Unlearning the pattern of emotional eating and overeating
- How Yvette used the YMX band-aid approach and why it works so well
- Effective emotional management tools to use instead of food
- The impact of truly realizing this body journey never ends
- The most extreme things Yvette tried to lose weight for the last time

The thoughts around us not having enough time feel extremely true.
I get it.
BUT I promise you there is another way to look at time so that you create more.
So that if you want to spend the amount of time it takes to lose weight for the last time (5-10 minutes/ day) you can totally do it.

I got to have the MOST fun conversation with Serena Hicks for her podcast, “The Serena Hicks Show”, where she talks about money and our relationship to it.
We talked a lot about the feminist values that show up in our relationship to both weight and money, so I thought why not release it here so you can hear it, too?
Culture tells us a lot of things to believe about money. Who can have it, how you can get it, what you’re allowed to do with it…
And it’s the same way for our weight. We’re told what we should weigh, what we should think about our weight, and how we need to manage it.
Body image and money also have the legacy factor in common. What do you want to leave behind for your children?
What voices do you want them to hear when they’re having a tough time looking at the bank account or in the mirror?
What values do you want to instill in them now so that as they mature, they have a strong foundation to face whatever obstacles come their way?
Because as any Yum Mum will tell you, it’s better to lead by example.
Listen in to our convo and you’ll hear more about:
Permission to lose weight and to make a lot of moneyHow to heal our patterns around weight and money in order to move forwardThe power of learning and progressing in communityDeveloping true self-love and self-trust What our energy and emotions have to teach usCan you believe March is almost over??

The scale is not the problem.
The scale is actually my favorite for two reasons.
One - it IS actually a pretty good measuring device and helps us to see if we are going where we want to.
Two - it is a mirror into our own thoughts about ourselves. And if you know me, you know how important I think thoughts are.
Once we see these toxic thoughts we can actually clean them up. It is not like by not seeing these thoughts we are not having them, they are still running through our subconscious and creating toxicity around our value, our worth and who we are.
My guess is this episode will break your brain and help you take your power back and stop delegating your mood to the scale! Let me know what you think!
Learn more about my April cohort of the Yummy Mummy Experience- you will thank yourself later!

What do you do when you say you aren't going to have the cupcake and then you have the cupcake?
Let me guess.
You either beat yourself up OR you just let yourself off of the hook.
NEWSFLASH: neither of these methods work to create permanent habit change, neither of these work in our quest to lose weight for the last time. What we must do instead is Look Back with Love.
Tune in to hear exactly how to do it. It isn't even that hard and I bet you are doing it in other areas of your life already! I can't wait for you to listen.

The three pillars that hold up everything in your life are how you prioritize your time, money, and your body. It's the dream trio. And when it comes to actually investing in the body you want, our most common excuses are? EXACTLY -- no time, no money.
I got to sit down with Jess, the go-to coach for women business owners who want to master their time, money, and CEO drama. Together, we broke down the relationship between time, money, and body and unpacked exactly how this trio can impact our journey to lose weight for the last time.
After Jess had gotten into a groove with fitness, she had a baby and everything changed. She told herself she no longer had the time or money to invest in creating the body and life she wanted.
That's right about when she realized the importance of her physical fitness and the MAJOR impact it had on her life. She quickly took her excuses off the table and never looked back.
Biggest lesson from our convo? What you do in one pillar of the trio, you're doing in the other pillars, too. MIND. BLOWN.
Listen in and you'll hear more about:
The relationship between time, money, and your bodyHow hard our brains work to create excusesUnderstanding our unhelpful thought patterns and succeeding despite themThe power of advanced decision-making skillsWhy you should never reassess your goals or plans in the momentAND, if you didn't sign up in time for the January Yummy Mummy Experience, NO WORRIES.
