Disrupting Obesity
The Disrupting Obesity podcast is for anyone who’s looking to lose an extreme amount of weight and change their relationship with food so they can keep the pounds off. If you’re tired of feeling judged for being fat, of excluding yourself or being left out, and using food to comfort, reward, and cope with your emotions and the day to day, don’t waste time beating yourself up. You absolutely have what it takes to lose a significant amount of weight naturally in a way that you can sustain and that will ensure you keep the weight off too.
Hosted by Charlotte Skanes, a weight loss coach who lost and is keeping off over two hundred pounds, this show will give you the strategies and mindset you need to drop the weight. It’s going to encourage you and motivate you so that you can build the confidence and self-belief to find the healthiest version of yourself. It’s not about the food. It’s about your relationship with food. Once you start to change that relationship you can start disrupting obesity.

135 ~ Weight Loss Wednesday IX
Welcome back to Weight Loss Wednesday. I cannot believe we are already on our ninth edition of this series. You keep sending in brilliant questions and I truly love answering them, so thank you. Keep them coming.
Today I am digging into emotional eating, holiday baking strategies, how my program works for those using GLP1s, my go to calorie tracking app, and a fun question about my favourite fictional characters. A little mindset, a little practical strategy, a little geekery. The perfect Wednesday mix.
In this episode, I cover:
• Emotional eating without shame
How to tell when it is time to comfort yourself with food versus when to take a more structured approach
How to stay in control and build awareness
Why the aim is not to eliminate emotional eating, but to evolve your relationship with it
• Holiday baking decisions
Should you bake? Hack recipes? Avoid it entirely?
How to protect your progress and your peace this season
Why hacked recipes can be an excellent tool rather than a punishment
• GLP1s and my program
Why the GLP1 can be a tool, not the entire solution
How my program supports mindset, behaviour and food relationship transformation
Why you still benefit from learning calorie awareness and emotional management
• My favourite calorie tracking app
The one I use, why I like it, and how I track now while maintaining
• A fun wrap up
My favourite fictional characters and superheroes
Spoiler: I'm team Buffy, always
Key takeaways
• Awareness is the most powerful tool when navigating emotional eating
• You do not have to choose between indulgent treats and hacked treats at the holidays
• Weight loss tools only work long term when paired with mindset work
• Progress over perfection, always
• Small shifts in habits count, so celebrate them
