Episode Details

Joining me on the show today is Paul Salter, a Registered Dietitian (RD) and Sustainable Weight Loss Expert. Since 2013, he’s personally coached over 1,500 women to lose 20 pounds or more and KEEP IT OFF (without feeling like they're dieting). 

He’s done so by taking an inside-out approach that focuses on cultivating feelings of self-love and self-worth from day one—not after weight is lost—and by paying much more attention to one’s mindset and emotional intelligence, in addition to the nutritional Xs and Os. 

He’s a twice published Author, host of The 5% Way Podcast (make sure to subscribe), and Founder and Head Coach of The 5% Community.

Topics discussed in this episode:

• Sustainable weight loss and why it's difficult for most people
• The role of self-talk in achieving sustainable weight loss
• The role of emotional intelligence in sustainable weight loss
• Self-talk / identity / transformational model of change
• Prioritizing self-love
• Where to begin with "deep work"
• An example of a "destructive and self-sabotaging pattern"
• Cultivating more intentionality to transform your relationship with food
• Your thoughts on willpower and discipline
• Your thoughts on "good vs. bad" foods
• The value of the pre-diet maintenance phase
• Weight loss as a goal vs. body composition (adding muscle)
• Going on your own vs. hiring a coach
