Ep109: The mindset mistakes that make sustainable weight loss impossible with Allan Misner

It's Not About the Alcohol

Are you in the habit of “starting over” when it comes to losing weight?

Most of us pair an ideal number on the scale with an end date on the calendar when trying to lose weight. And then radically alter our diet and exercise routines in a full sprint towards the goal.

If we fail, we feel depressed, defeated and convinced that we either have no willpower OR a faulty metabolism (and probably both).

If we succeed, the victory feels heroic. We buy the flattering outfit, humbly accept the compliments and share the highlights of our transformation with jealous friends.

But either way, within a few months, our body returns to its enigmatic “set point” weight. And we get tired of swimming against the tide.

Allan Misner is the host of the top-ranking podcast, 40+ Fitness and author of The Wellness Roadmap. Allan became a health and fitness coach after he escaped the rollercoaster that kept him bouncing between fitness and fatness. You’ll walk away from this interview with:

• Strategies that actually generate motivation in your brain (so you can stop hoping it magically appears next Monday)

• Allan’s mindset mapping strategy that teaches you how to achieve external goals by first strengthening your connection to your internal core values and identity.

• How to set goals you’re excited to work towards where weight loss is the side effect instead of the sole focus.
