With Slimpod you can finally overcome your fears and succeed
The thing I’ve noticed most during over a decade of helping people to lose weight is that after a few weeks of beginning the latest “new thing’”, the excitement and buzz wear off and fear and panic set in.
The destructive little voice in your head starts up again: “You’ll never succeed” or “You always fail, what’s so different this time?” or “What if I don’t lose weight?” or “What will people think if I fail again?”
Well, if this happens to you, I can tell you that you’re not alone. This is such a common thing and it can be stopped.
You CAN overcome fear and succeed.
You CAN turn fear on its head and get freedom from food and be in control.
And believe me, it’s transformational when you do! It’s what I talk about in today’s video.
I also talk about food and your full signal – it’s a must-watch video!
Summary
** If you have a fear of failing you really must take action. Goals shouldn’t be obstacles, they should be things that allow you to measure your success and progress on to the next level.
** Motivation is paralysed by fear. Decide what you want from the world and go get it. We don’t have to be held back by our minds.
** Task one: Spend time thinking about whether your fears are holding you back.
** Task two: While you’re eating this week, put down your phone, close your laptop and switch off the TV. Enjoy the food and listen for your full signal!

Take these simple steps and start thinking like a slimmer person
Happy New Year and a very warm welcome to my new year Boot Camp! Yes, it’s time to shake off the cobwebs and get 2020 off to a great start! And here’s the thing: This Boot Camp is different. It’s like nothing you’ve done before because we don’t just focus on food and exercise.
Living a healthy life and achieving sustainable weight loss are more of a mental challenge than just a physical one. So we focus on getting your mind in a place to enable lasting change.
This Boot Camp will be full of valuable tips to empower you to think like a slimmer person, because this is the life-changing bit! No more falling off the wagon – how good will that feel?!
Here’s the first video – enjoy!
Key points
** The three pillars of this programme are listening, watching and noting the all important wins . Daily repetition is the key to success.
** The extra very important task is to work on your goal. What do you REALLY want to achieve in 2020? Think deeply about this and make it meaningful.
** Create your own goal map with my friend Brian Mayne’s free goalmapping system
** Avoid using the scales as your measure of success. Take yourself out to the future – to next Christmas – how do you want to feel? What size clothes would you like to be in?
** Think about your health, especially if you have diabetes or other conditions. What would you like to achieve?
** Above all – think LONG TERM! This is crucial because we’re all about long term success here, and a major shift in the way you think about yourself. This is what brings contentment and sustainable weight loss.
Action in Slimpod Club
I’ll be posting a video every Monday throughout January and we’ll be very active in Slimpod Club, so look out for the special Boot Camp thread.
Slimpod Club is all about positivity, inspiration, encouragement and support.

Beware of the winter weight gain season – mini-series, Part 4
CHRISTMAS is supposed to be a fun time of year, full of cheer. But it can also be full of stress! So many people find Christmas challenging for all sorts of reasons.
It’s a time when the best eating and exercise habits can fall by the wayside because there’s wall to wall food, parties and booze!Exercise and self-care often put on the back burner through lack of time.
Then the inevitable happens, we feel rubbish, the guilt sets in and we start beating ourselves up!
But we really shouldn’t do that because a weight loss journey is full of obstacles, whether they be seasonal stress, Christmas parties, comfort eating or a million other things!
Debbie O’Connor posted a great message in Slimpod Club the other day in which she associated losing weight with being a toddler – especially at this time of year.
Debbie’s Slimpod Club post
When you’re starting to walk, you come up against all sorts of obstacles. You fall down and you get back up again – but you keep going until you can walk.
Even when you get hurt you get back up and carry on!
This time of year is one big obstacle for those of us aiming to get into smaller clothes. And sometimes we just have to accept it as it is, because it’s only a short time.
If you deviate from your plan, that’s absolutely fine. Just think like a toddler.
Pick yourself up, dust yourself off, know it’s only temporary and move on. Don’t throw your toys out of the pram and give up!
Another thing about Christmas is that it can be really hard to stay motivated to keep the exercise going, especially if your default position is to eat more and do less.
Before you realise it, the winter blues kick in because you’re not getting the same level of nature’s happy drugs (like sunshine, exercise and fresh air) to keep you balanced.
So let’s deal with this right now!
As I’ve said many times, it’s SO important to be aware that you’re being less active but unless you have solid habits in place it’s really easy to let life take over.
Did you know that the average person puts on up to 8lbs over the winter? Incredible isn’t it?
But if you adjust things a little and keep moving you’ll stay happy and help keep the weight off too.
Part four of my mini-series on beating winter comfort eating is below. In previous weeks we’ve looked at how you can tell if emotional eating is happening; why your hunger signal becomes disabled; and the art of recognising your eating triggers.
Now watch his week’s video and comment below if it’s helped you. I love hearing from you.
Plus, subscribe to my YouTube channel and connect with me on Instagram. I’m also going to be on a Facebook Live video talking about this very subject tonight (Wednesday December 11) at 7.30 UK time. Join me!
Click on the picture to start this week’s video and please feel free to share it with friends who might also find it helpful.
Please leave a comment below. I read every single one and I know from feedback I get that other people find them very inspiring.
SUMMARY
** Humans can easily go into hibernation at this time of year. Be aware when you start eating more and doing less because that’s the warning sign.
** If it’s too nasty to go outside, find some YouTube exercise videos you can do inside. Restore your get-up-and-go and you’ll feel a whole lot better about yourself.
** Turn indoor exercise into a habit by doing it regularly and you’ll train your brain to get the same buzz from exercise as it does from food and sugar.
MINI-SERIES CATCH-UP
Part One: Stop comfort eating in its tracks
Part Two: Why your hunger signal goes off
Part Three: Recognise your eating triggers
