Losing Weight without Losing Your Mind (formerly the More Mindful Podcast)

Welcome to the Losing Weight Without Losing Your Mind Podcast (formerly, the More Mindful Podcast) — where we make weight loss sustainable (and dare I say, enjoyable?!) by changing how you think, instead of just changing what you eat.

Hi, I'm your host is Julia Lynch— your down-to-earth double-certified macro-nutrition coach, integrative health enthusiast, and fellow recovering "starting over every Monday" girl. I get it because I've been there: obsessing over every bite, working out twice a day, and still feeling like I was failing.

Here's what changed everything: I stopped expecting overly-restrictive diets to work for me (they don't!) and I started working with my brain and body, instead of against it.

Now, I help overwhelmed, high-achieving women (you know, the ones juggling EVERYTHING, while her inner perfectionist yaps away at her all day) lose weight without making it their full-time job or giving up Friday night pizza. What’s the point of losing weight if it makes you hate your life?

Through my Rooted Method, I combine mindful eating and macro tracking with practical nutrition hacks and the mindset shifts that actually stick, so you can finally stop the mental gymnastics around food and lose weight without the drama…

Each week, we're diving into real conversations about the thoughts keeping you stuck, simple nutrition strategies that work with your actual life, and tools to help you trust yourself around food again.

Because here's the thing—you don't need another meal plan. You need to stop believing that becoming “that healthy girl” is out of reach. Once you shift your mindset to believe it IS possible, I promise you things will start falling into place. And this podcast is your gateway there.

005: Help! The scale is up 10 lbs. Now what?

August 20, 2024 • Julia Lynch • Episode 5

What are you making your weight on the scale MEAN?

What is the story you tell yourself when you get on the scale and it’s not what you expected?

What are you saying to yourself in these moments?

In this episode, I coach you through this moment and the SIX THINGS that I want you to come back to if you've ever been in her shoes…

This episode was inspired by a real life client who stepped on the scale and realized she was 10 lbs higher than she thought she’d be.

Ooof. Have you have a moment like that too?

If so, this one will resonate.

I talk about using the scale to judge your success versus using your habits, feelings, and behaviors to judge your success.

I talk about speaking kindly to yourself through this moment and beyond.

I talk about navigating facts versus fiction.

I talk about deciding to take ownership of our choices AND our beliefs so that it sets us up for both short term AND long term success - both in regards to our physical and mental health.

I would love to hear your thoughts on this one. Send me a DM and let me know what topics around the scale you want to hear next, okay??
