Break the cycle of holiday weight gain by taking control of EXACTLY what and how much you eat using the 7 simple steps outlined in The Ultimate Toolkit to Stop Holiday Overeating. No foods off limits. No counting calories. No drama.
This week marks the beginning of several weeks of holidays.
That means parties, family gatherings, and lots of food.
Thanksgiving is all about being grateful for what we have, who we are connected to in our lives.
But too often, for most, it’s all about the food.
The turkey.
The stuffing.
The pies.
The side dishes.
Need I go on?
You don’t have to go to your holiday meals carrying a small Tupperware container with veggies and cottage cheese.
That’s old school, right?
You are here to live your life and that includes enjoying good food.
But that doesn’t have to mean that you leave this holiday being as stuffed as the turkey. I want you to feel excited going into this holiday, not dreading it.
So this week, Coach Steph and I talk about dealing with this holiday season in a way that allows for pleasure, but still leaves you in charge of what you do, how you eat and how you feel.
I’m going to show you how to think going into these celebrations, what to do, and how to create an occasion for yourself that you can look back at and feel proud. Proud of yourself for keeping your word to yourself, AND still enjoying all of the food.
Can you do it? After listening to this episode, I have NO DOUBT.Connect with Leslie:

Break the cycle of holiday weight gain by taking control of EXACTLY what and how much you eat using the 7 simple steps outlined in The Ultimate Toolkit to Stop Holiday Overeating. No foods off limits. No counting calories. No drama.
As a dieter, I was a gold medalist in "grazing”.
Primarily because I was constantly trying to eat the least amount of food possible at every eating event — or at least stay within my feeble boundary of the day — which left me perpetually unsatisfied, running back and forth to the kitchen continuously throughout the day. (I’m pretty sure this isn’t what the fitness industry meant when promoting 10,000 steps a day.)
It never occurred to me that I could go to a restaurant and order what I really wanted for dinner… right off the entrée menu… without having to ask for anything "on the side."
Even when I was "off track," I never gave myself permission to go to a restaurant and order something truly filling and satisfying.
Instead, I'd rummage through my cabinets grabbing handfuls of nuts and spoonfuls of peanut butter until I felt sick. And this is exactly why I could never lose those last stubborn 10-15 pounds.
Join me in this episode as I discuss the #1 mistake most dieters are making and they don't even realize it. I'll also reveal the simple yet delicious tweak I made to my eating that changed everything for me.

Break the cycle of holiday weight gain by taking control of EXACTLY what and how much you eat using the 7 simple steps outlined in The Ultimate Toolkit to Stop Holiday Overeating. No foods off limits. No counting calories. No drama.
Are you a member of the Clean Plate Club? Do you typically eat until all the food on your plate is gone, regardless of how much has been served?
If the answer is yes, you are certainly not alone. This habit is, by far, the most challenging for the majority of my clients to overcome. Unfortunately, this is also the self-sabotaging habit that’s contributed to your unwanted extra pounds.
“Naturally thin” people eat differently. Occasionally, they’ll overeat on holidays or while traveling to exotic places and sampling novelty items, but mostly, they stop when their body communicates it has had enough.
Dieters, however, eat according to a clock, or a meal plan, or a calorie total. They’re in their minds while the naturally thin are in their bodies.
So, how do these magical people accomplish this herculean task? Join me on today's episode to discover the secret eating habits of the naturally thin so you can take control of your eating without going on another soul-sucking diet.

Break the cycle of holiday weight gain by taking control of EXACTLY what and how much you eat using the 7 simple steps outlined in The Ultimate Toolkit to Stop Holiday Overeating. No foods off limits. No counting calories. No drama.
In this episode we debunk the lie that the fitness industry teaches about discipline being the key to a successful transformation and how that philosophy has kept dieters on a hamster wheel for years.
Every frustrated dieter wonders why they can’t just be more disciplined. They wonder why they can start off strong and the wheels inevitably fall off.
Generic dieting advice and the “just try harder” narrative is flawed. In reality, most people have tried harder to lose weight than anything else they’ve ever had to work at.
So if trying harder isn’t the answer, what is?
Imagine waking up each day trusting that you aren’t going to overeat, that you won’t run out of willpower, and you’ll go to bed that night feeling proud that you broke the habit of overeating. How would it feel to be in control of food, instead of food controlling you?
Our habits shape our lives and finding the right system makes all the difference in the world.
Whether you’ve been a Restrictor or a Permitter in your dieting past, your current habits either work for you or against you.
When you understand the power of a habit, for better or worse, it’s easy to see how having the right habits, systems, and support in place is a game changer when it comes to fat loss.
In this episode, you’ll discover how to become consistent so you can not only achieve your goals, but you can maintain them with ease.

Today, I explore the pros and cons of calorie counting and intuitive eating. Everything you've learned in your years of dieting isn't trash. And everything promoted by the intuitive eating community also isn't a dumpster fire.
The problem with both of these methodologies is when they're taken to extremes, soo why not try something in the middle? Something that's actually doable and doesn't bring you so much frustration that you quit every other day?
Maybe a detailed step-by-step process that DOESN'T require calorie counting, but DOES involve tracking and being accountable to your eating behavior?
And instead of beating yourself up when you're unable to execute your plan to perfection, you take the time to evaluate what happened through reflective journaling so you can practice better the next day?
If you're ready to quiet the food noise and crank the dial up on consistent weight loss without updating My Fitness Pal before every meal, we've got you covered!

In this week's episode, I respond to a Reddit post titled, "The habits of naturally fat people" in which a woman who's recently lost 45 pounds discusses the subtle fat gaining habits she had when she was obese.
Coach Steph Miramontes and I address each one of the daily habits she shared and discuss how they may seem insignificant on their face, but executed consistently over an extended period of time is exactly how weight gain happens.
Because these habits are so minor, it's easy to dismiss them in favor for much bigger changes, but this is one of the biggest mistakes you can make.
Join us to discover the 4 daily fat gaining habits you don't even know you're doing!

As a professional dieter, you've probably read a lot about compulsive overeating and the uncontrollable urges that drive food obsession. So much so, that you may even feel like you're addicted to food.
And chances are, what you're experiencing feels like what you're battling is far beyond willpower and personal discipline.
But here's the thing. If this was a true deficit in your character, you would not be where you are in terms of career, education, regular workouts and adherence to other things in life.
So what the F*#% is going on here!?
Today, we discuss how you can dump the constant raging voice that tells you to eat just for the sake of eating.
I know. I've been there.
It doesn't just yell, it screams, "EAT THIS; EAT THIS; EAT THIS NEXT; WHAT ARE WE EATING NEXT?" regardless of what is going on. In fact, you could literally be finishing a satisfying meal and the voice will yell to eat something else, even though I am hungry and genuinely do not need anymore.
Don't miss today's episode as Coach Steph and I breakdown HOW this happens and WHAT you can do, starting immediately, to silence this voice forever.

Slow and steady wins the race, but dieters crave fast, fierce, and furious for their weight loss programs.
Instant gratification dominates the mindsets of most dieters. They want quick solutions and quicker results.
Consider what causes you to pursue a long-term project - like writing a book, building a relationship, learning an instrument, etc.
With long-term projects, sooner or later, we need evidence that we’re making progress. Without it, it would seem silly to continue pursuing it forever without the reward of accomplishment.
People don’t spend 20 years eating healthy and working their tail off at the gym without pleasure and reward mixed in. And if the goal is to maintain a lean physique for forever, we can’t rely solely on external validators, like a scale or mirror. Why?
1. Because those results aren’t immediate.
2. Because those results don’t continue changing after maintenance.
Unfortunately, this is where most dieters get stuck. Instead of chasing instant gratification in emotional and compulsive eating, what if you learned how to develop a new reward system? How would it feel to be able to delay instant gratification for permanent weight loss?
Dive into this week's episode as we discuss exactly how to do just that.

If you want to be someone who rarely thinks about food and feels completely in control of what you eat in a way that feels easy, then you have to learn how to adopt the inner psychology and eating habits of a ‘naturally thin’ person. The glaring difference between the lifestyle of Burned Out Dieter vs the lifestyle of the ‘Naturally Thin’ is that they’re both making drastically different decisions based on their inner psychology and daily eating habits. So for example, a ‘naturally thin’ person who eats consistent portions at every meal for years is on autopilot. And for Burned Out Dieters who are constantly getting on and off track with their eating — have created a habit of restrict-then-overeat. They also do things like: Cleaning their plate at every meal Pick at food while they’re preparing it Eating when they’re procrastinating, bored, or stressed So, the question then becomes, how do we choose to do the things that ‘naturally thin’ people do consistently? The diet industry will tell you that it’s about “eating less and moving more” and while that’s factually accurate, it’s shit advice and only half of the conversation. Everyone already knows what they should be doing to lose weight. The question is WHY aren’t they doing it? No one in the diet industry wants to touch this question. It’s easier to talk about eating protein, vegetables, and tracking your calories…but it’s also why 95% of dieters are failing at long-term weight loss. Answering this question requires understanding how your inner psychology influences your eating behaviors. Join me on today's episode as we help you unravel your ties to emotional eating and develop the eating habits of the 'naturally thin'.

Do you know why your diet isn't working?
Join co-coach, Steph Miramontes, and me in this week’s episode as we dive into the 4 reasons why you still haven't lost the weight.
Most people choose to follow meal plans and cookie cutter diets over a more mindful approach because the “rules” and boundaries have already been created for you. This helps you feel safe and confident in your decisions, but the truth is — diets never go as planned.
If you don’t take the time to understand the purpose behind what you’re doing, you will be easily discouraged when times get tough.
Diets won’t teach you how to navigate off the beaten path, and that’s where success is ultimately determined.
sick days having a baby going through a divorce the loss of a loved one accepting a job offer in a different state
If you want long-term sustainable weight loss, you must start educating yourself on how this process can be woven into the fabric of your every day life, not just for the next 12 weeks.
Give this episode a listen for multiple ideas on how to put this into practice.

ANNOUNCEMENT: Are you a Burned Out Dieter Who's Struggling to Stay on Track? Join me and Coach Steph in the Outsmart Overeating program -- 6 weeks dedicated to helping emotional, binge, and compulsive overeaters STOP OVEREATING through psychology, NOT restrictive dieting or willpower. You can snag all the details on the enrollment page.
This week, I invited client, Dr Leah, onto the show to share her experience in my signature psychology-based weight loss program, Unstuffed. As a doctor, Leah reveals how little formal nutrition education she actually received in her medical training. And as a struggling dieter herself, she found the standard medical recommendation to "follow a Keto diet for weight loss" to be nearly impossible to maintain, especially after having her first child. In this episode, Leah talks about the power of habits and the benefit of having a deeper 'why' than simply wanting to lose weight for health and vanity. In Leah's case, she felt a strong connection to wanting to honor and respect a body that was made in God's image. Also, it was important to her to pass down these habits to her children and create a healthy environment where she could thrive -- both in home and at the office with her patients -- by being a good role model. She's been enjoying the benefits of the program so much that she's now convinced her husband (another doctor) to join. Healthy habits truly are the gift that keeps on giving!
If you're a burned out dieter who's feeling frustrated and hopeless, be sure to give this episode a listen. Dieting challenges usually get worse with time, not better. Do your future-self a favor and take action now.

As Nicolette was entering her 20's, she started developing an eating disorder. She eventually found a therapist, and at first her progress was significant. But slowly, over time, she noticed that she was still thinking about food in an obsessive and controlling way.
It wasn't as obvious as before, but the subtle behaviors -- like trying to eat 'clean' and stick to her macros -- still felt like they were consuming too much of her mental bandwidth.
This week, I'm excited to share the story of past client, Nicolette Tomaszewski. At 37 years-old, Nicolette is now a therapist, who has recently undergone one of the most transformative eating experiences of her life.
In this episode, Nicolette gets real by getting vulnerable. Some of the topics discussed:
She reveals the unconventional process that changed everything and how it turned out to be EXACTLY what she needed to break-free from the cycle of dysfunctional dieting for good.
She shares why therapy didn't give her all the tools she needed to stop the weight loss obsession (and what has actually worked)
How this going through this life-changing process has impacted the way she counsels her own clients in therapy in a way that's compassionate, yet goal-supporting
How breaking up with dieting has opened up more ways for her to live a rich, rewarding life while maintaining a healthy, fit body in a way that feels easy and effortless.
If you're a burned out dieter who's feeling frustrated and hopeless, be sure to give this episode a listen. Dieting challenges usually get worse with time, not better. Do your future-self a favor and take action now.

You probably realize that consistency is important for making progress, losing weight, getting in shape, and achieving success in most areas of life.
So if you’ve been struggling to lose weight it’s because there’s been a breakdown in consistency somewhere in your eating in a calorie deficit.
Without addressing this #1 problem, weight loss will become nearly impossible, because consistency is essential for success.
Unfortunately, this can breed an obsession with striving for perfection… which generally backfires.
It’s easy to convince yourself that if you don’t follow your diet perfectly, then you’ve failed… but in my case, striving for perfection is what eventually ignited my binge eating.
So if there’s anything I want you to take away from today’s conversation, it’s that it can be really easy to confuse being consistent with being perfect, but it's not required for success.
Join me as I share how to be consistent and how to avoid common mistakes and pitfalls, so you can turn your dream into a reality!

In this episode I debunk the two metabolic myths of a 'naturally thin' person.
Every frustrated dieter wonders why 'naturally thin' people have an unfair advantage. Why do they have faster metabolims or the ability to be more disciplined? Why can they start off strong in the morning without the wheels falling off later that night?
It must be their metabolism, right? WRONG!
Generic dieting advice says dieters just need to "try harder” but in reality, most of them have been 'trying harder' at weight loss more than anything else in their lives.
So if more willpower isn't the answer, what is?
Imagine waking up every morning with the deeply held belief that you aren’t going to overeat that day... and you actually succeed! No empty promises. No false beliefs. You said what you were going to do and DID IT.
What if you were able to BE this person, all day, every day all the way to your goal? What if you were able to break the habit of overeating and develop the mindset and habits of the 'naturally thin' so you never had to diet again?
How would it feel to be in control of food, all the time, everywhere?
Your habits shape our lives and finding the right system makes all the difference in the world.
When you understand the power of a habit, for better or worse, it’s easy to see how the right habits make ALL the difference in who you ARE vs. who you WANT to be.
In this episode, you’ll discover how to become consistent so you can not only achieve your goals, but you can maintain them with ease.
If you haven't achieved your dream body yet, this episode will let you know WHY. It's not because of your 'slow metabolism' it's because of your inner psychology and habits.

In this episode, we had the pleasure of interviewing two-time client, Rachael, a registered dietician.
After losing weight using the strategies in 75 Hard, Rachael knew she was barely hanging on by a thread and couldn’t maintain the extreme restriction required that caused her to lose the weight.
At one point, her husband expressed concern about her dieting behaviors and feeling backed into a corner, Rachael relented and decided to give up dieting altogether.
As someone who experienced a classic history of yo-yoing with no long-term results to speak of, she decided she’d benefit from the structure and like-minded community offered in the Unstuffed program.
In this episode, Rachael opens up and shares the shame she experienced as a dietician who sought help in the very arena she had received a Master’s Degree.
She also shares her first experience in the program and why she later returned for more coaching.
In this week's episode, Rachael shares: The biggest challenges she throughout the program and how she's been able to execute the psychological tools she learned to remain consistent in her habits Rachael shares why she decided to try hunger directed eating and how the program helped her identify herself as a struggling perfectionist What holiday and social eating looks like for her now compared to years previous (hint: no more food anxiety, fear of losing control or feeling left out) Rachael’s BEST piece of advice for those who fear they'll gain weight if they stop calorie counting and focus on weight loss through behavior change For more conversations on topics like binge eating, emotional eating, and the all-or-nothing mindset, you can check out previously recorded episodes.
