In this MEGA episode of The Weight Loss Podcast, we dive into the 4 basic foundations of weight loss.

- Exercise, the basic that determines the type of weight you lose.

- Nutrition, the basic that determines how much weight you lose.

- Accountability, the glue that holds the entire process together.

- Your why, the anchor point that can allow you to legitimately change your life for the better, WITHOUT relying on mythical creatures such as willpower or motivation.

Buckle up because there's a lot to learn here, and you can look forward to more MEGA episodes coming regularly in the future as we are busy behind the scenes recording our next season of the show!

You start on Monday and you're so excited!

Your latest diet is about to begin. You're signed up, paid up and ready to go.

We've been there too.

Not only do we talk about why it's a problem for so many people, we give you great tips and ideas on how you can overcome this dangerous, self-sabotaging approach!

Fear of failure is normal.

We've all been affected by it, and for a lot of us the fear of failure has led us to not even try in the first place.

What if you could ensure you won't fail?

This podcast is for you.

In this episode we talk about our own personal experiences with fear of failure and how we've turned it into an advantage.

Ever had it where you've compared yourself to someone else, and in your mind you've come up short?

You've been training hard, you've been eating well and you're starting to feel better, your clothes are fitting more comfortably...

...and then you see that person on Instagram or Facebook that's getting results faster than you.

Or they're stronger than you. Why do they have abs and you don't?

Chances are if you're reading this, you absolutely have compared yourself to others before...and the comparisons have been bad in your mind.

But do you know all the facts behind the comparison? Do you both have the same background, are you working towards the game goals? Have you overcome the same obstacles?

In this episode of the show we take a deep dive into why comparing yourselves to others is holding you back, and give you some great advice on why you shouldn't have to worry about it and how you can overcome this issue yourself!
