weight loss program

The news that weight loss company Jenny Craig is shutting down had me thinking back on my times in Weight Watchers. Jenny Craig was a meal replacement system where you bought prepackaged foods or foods that were already calorie counted and macro portioned with the goal of weight loss. Weight Watchers is essentially the same: counting points assigned to food to reach a certain goal that will result in weight loss. Now, though, many weight loss companies are catching on that lifestyle changes are more in line with today’s goals. We want to be healthy, we want wellness, and they are pivoting to include that. So how can you determine what program is an actual lifestyle change program and which is still a weight loss system with an overlay of lifestyle change marketing?

The biggest question to ask is “is the goal of the program still to have you shrink your body?” If the goal isn’t just a healthier lifestyle but also to reduce the size of your body, the program is still just a weight loss program. Dieting is traumatizing. It does terrible things to our bodies, health, minds, and our souls. There is a lot of value in having a healthier lifestyle, absolutely, but dieting is dangerous. So I’m going to talk about things that suggest a program is more aligned with weight loss than lifestyle or health, drawing on my experiences with Weight Watchers. I have seven points to share with you. Seven points to watch out for to determine if a lifestyle program is just weight loss system in disguise.

Not only can intermittent fasting help you lose weight, but it can also reduce inflammation and improve health conditions such as arthritis, Alzheimer’s disease, multiple sclerosis, and strokes.

But fasting is not the same thing as starving yourself of essential nutrients. In fact, long-term glucose starvation increases inflammation levels in the body and can cause your body to hold onto fat cells, preventing weight loss.

So what are the true distinctions between fasting and starvation?

On this episode of The Dr. Kris Podcast, Dr. Wusterhausen and Steve Brown discuss key differences between intermittent fasting and starvation, as well as:

• Health benefits you may see with fasting;
• Risks of starvation for your long-term health; and
• How to start a safe, healthy fasting plan.

As you listen to this episode about 6 things to stop saying to lose more weight in 2023, ask yourself which ones you resonate with the most.

So often people know WHAT to do, but they fail to follow-through.

Time and again they brush it off as laziness, a lack of motivation, or a lack of willpower.

This couldn’t be further from the truth.

The fact is laziness and apathy are feelings, emotions, caused by thoughts. Your thoughts cause your emotions. Your emotions drive your actions. Your actions create your results.

Can you imagine how much more weight you could lose in 2023 if you knew the exact thoughts that were blocking you from losing weight?

After years of coaching women to lose weight, I noticed that there are some VERY common, yet often unrecognized sneaky thoughts that hold them back from losing weight and gaining health.

Once they broke this thought pattern, they were able to gain freedom from food, body comparison, apathy, and low motivation.

You may think that losing weight in 2023 will be all about being more strict with your diet and exercise.

But have you considered that while eating clean is great, THINKING clean is even better? Many people struggle to lose the physical weight because they fail to recognize it as a SYMPTOM of mental weight.

You cannot lose your physical weight (for good) if you don’t first fix the thoughts that lead to the emotions that drive your eating and behaviors that control your weight.

Trying to lose the physical weight without also losing the mental weight is like driving with one foot on the gas and the other on the break. You’ll burn yourself out and feel like you’ve gotten nowhere.

Losing weight and getting healthy in 2023 is going to be a lot harder if you continue these 8 things you’ll learn in this episode

Highlights From This Episode

• Stop going on a diet. Start having a diet. 
• Stop trying to lose weight. Start creating your healthy lifestyle. 
• Stop trying to do “all the things” to lose weight. 
• Stop focusing on your “gap” and start focusing on your “gains.”
• Stop expecting instant results. This leads to an unsustainable weight loss approach. 
• Stop overcommitting and overscheduling yourself. Stop putting the wants of others above your own health. 
• Stop talking mean to yourself. Your brain doesn’t do sarcasm. 
• Stop making decisions for “current” you. Start making decisions for “future” you.

If you want to lose weight so you can be healthier, look better, and have more energy, don’t go on *another* diet.

95% of diets fail, so why bother with an unsustainable and restrictive plan in the first place? Would you go to a doctor that had a 95% fail rate? Of course not!

So why not try a better approach that *actually* gets you sustainable results.

Zivli is not a diet. It’s a slow and gradual lifestyle change to one that keeps insulin and inflammation low. Zivli is our online course and coaching program that helps you reverse insulin resistance for long-term weight loss and disease prevention.

You’ll learn how to maintain a lower carbohydrate lifestyle, use intermittent fasting strategically, and optimize other lifestyle habits to enhance your results.

A lack of follow-through and overwhelm always stem from a limiting thought. This quick-tip episode stems from many conversations with clients and Zivli members about weight loss overwhelm and lack of follow-through. Consistency is the name of the better health game. Crash diets and yo-yo dieting do not work for long-term weight loss. Adopting healthy habits that keep insulin and inflammation low does.

This episode is going to teach you how much protein you actually need to lose weight, and how to eat more protein when using intermittent fasting. 

You may have heard that intermittent fasting is one of the best ways to lose weight...and for many, it is! It can be the needle mover in a plateau. Plus it’s easy, convenient, free and saves you time on meal prep and dishes. 

But a common pitfall people who are trying to lose weight can fall into, is using intermittent fasting as a means of restrictions - falling back into the old diet mentality. Then, when they do eat, they’re under-fueling and putting their body in a state of starvation.

When done right, intermittent fasting boosts your metabolism. 

When done wrong, it’s no better than a regular chronic calorie restricted diet that’s been shown to crash your metabolism for 6 months to 4 years, leading to weight regain.

Highlights From This Episode

• Benefits of a high protein diet. 
• FAQ: "How much protein do I need in a day?"
• FAQ: "How much protein do I need per meal?"
• How to calculate your daily protein needs example.
• Leucine benefits and the leucine threshold explained. 
• Complete protein food examples and serving sizes. 
• 5 tips to get more protein while using intermittent fasting to lose weight and build muscle.

Holiday weight gain is a well-studied phenomenon. Researchers have found that people gain about a pound from November to January.

It may not seem like much, but small weight gains have a way of adding up over the years. Without a plan, it can be difficult to resist sugary treats or consuming too many carbohydrates.

In this episode, we'll be talking with nutritionist and medical weight loss coach, Jamie Young, to bring you a Holiday Nutrition Survival Guide for keeping nutrition and weight gain under control throughout this winter season.

If you have been struggling to lose weight your whole life, maybe you’ve “tried everything” and nothing seems to work for you, you have been focusing on the effect and not the cause level. 

You may be focusing on your diet and exercise before you focus on your mindset and developing the self-discipline it takes to make a strategy a long-term habit. Temporary change leads to temporary results. Mindset is critically important to healthy sustainable lifestyle changes to lose weight and truly reduce your risk for diseases like type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and dementia.

Highlights From This Episode
[05:21] Superpower #1: Consistency. I’ve learned that without consistency, you have nothing. If you want to get stronger, going to the gym or doing push-ups ONCE will not get you there. If you want to eat healthier, buying better options at the grocery store ONCE won’t get you there. Here are 4 steps to add consistency to your life. 

[10:54] The importance of consistent reflection to lose weight and improve your health. 

[12:08] Brief overview of the 3 types of reflection that I learned during my residency, continue to use, and teach to my clients and course members. 

[13:10] Practical example about how to eat healthy when eating at a restaurant. Reflection for action: Look at the menu ahead of time and decide what you will eat and drink, drink plenty of water and eat healthy throughout the day, anticipate road-blocks like what you plan to say when the waiter or someone else at the table offers dessert.
