Join the challenge www.vibewithmaggie.com/choose-to-change

Cravings are something we all struggle with when trying to lose weight, especially when we are just starting our weight loss journey. This week we discuss our strategies to reduce food cravings and how you can go about food choices to strategically reduce cravings for a more enjoyable weight loss journey. www.vibewithmagie.com

Today we're talking about the difference between consuming information and executing. Knowing what to do is a very small part of the process. Because there is so much learning involved in weight loss, we need to take messy action to get there. Join the 30 day challenge www.vibewithmaggie.com

You know the feeling... when everything you're doing to lose weight starts to feel like an obligation. That is no place anyone wants to be, and it's very common in weight loss. In this episode we talk about the best approach to re-evaluating everything you are doing to lose weight, and choosing again— getting to the bottom of the "purpose" in all your action. Join the challenge www.vibewithmaggie.com

It's just Maggie today! I talk today about the best way to make your weight loss habits easier. It's not what you think it is— just having more willpower and motivation.

This week we talk about how you are always making a choice, even when it doesn't feel like it— even when it feels like outside circumstances are dictating the things we have to do to lose weight. When we shift this perspective we take our power back. Join Vibe Club www.vibewithmaggie.com

Stress and overwhelm are some of the biggest triggers for emotional eating. This week we talk about how to feel stressed and overwhelmed without eating your feelings. If you can get good at feeling these types of emotions without dealing with them with food, you're going to find that weight loss will become much easier and you will start to see progress you can't believe.

We're talking cheat meals again this week. The last time we discussed this topic was episode 4, so we thought it was time to address it again. Do we think you should have cheat meals? What is a cheat meal? How cheat meals can become a problem. Why you shouldn't be afraid of food outside of your normal plan, and the reasons why you should consider making this food part of your plan right now, instead of waiting. Join Vibe Club www.vibewithmaggie.com

This week we talk about one of the most common questions I get asked on social media "how do you stay motivated?". We dive deep into what makes us feel more and less motivated, what you can do when you aren't feeling motivated, and how to harness those moments to your advantage.

This week's episode is all about the excuses we have in weight loss. Excuses are optional thoughts that will never serve us. After coaching women over the past year, I've heard them all— "I don't know what to do, I am confused, I don't have the time... you name it." This week we're discecting all the excuses and teaching you what you could think instead to better serve your weight loss journey.

When it comes to weight loss, the reality is that we thrive off of routines, habits, and certainty. We want to know what to expect and to do everything we can to guarantee the result we're working towards. Yet, when it comes down to the nitty-gritty, we resist it so hard. But prepping truly is the key to making weight loss easy, and we're showing you why it doesn't have to feel like a chore.
