EPISODE 15: "No amount of weight loss ever feels like enough"

What most dieters don't realize is that their quest for weight loss has more to do with feeling 'not good enough' and less to do with losing pounds.

What they TRULY want is access to the life that they think is waiting for them on the other side of weight loss -- more dating prospects, more respect, more confidence, more clothing options, etc.

It's not about the weight itself. It's about having an emotional experience. And until dieters connect these two dots, there will never be enough weight loss in the world that can satisfy their need for self-acceptance, because self-acceptance isn't a number on a scale, it's an emotional experience. And it's not one that's exclusively available to people who fit into society's beauty ideals.

Join me on this episode of the Outsmart Overeating Podcast as I discuss how being consumed with our bodies and things like calories, workouts, and weight-loss best practices, we lose the joy that comes with experiencing a full and vibrant life.

We're so focused on the end result of one aspect of who we are that we completely miss the beautiful life we've created that's already unfolding around us, leaving us feel empty and disatisfied.
