In today’s episode, Rusty Meier, better known as Coach Frizzle of Fitness, joins us to chat all about the holidays and the stressful things that come with them. We discuss the common frustrations when people they feel they’ve wasted years not making progress, and how our language and our mindsets are 100% in our control. We emphasize, as always, that true transformation is not just about achieving aesthetic targets, but must involve a deeper psychological shift.

We walk through some practical strategies for holiday eating, balancing enjoyment with helpful choices, dealing with family expectations and body comments, and the freedom in making the empowered move rather than succumbing to an all-or-nothing approach.

“It’s literally the thing that holds us back from losing the weight we think we want to lose. There’s such a mental weight we carry with us. Yeah, you want to lose 20 lbs, but you also need to lose the weight you’ve been carrying for the last 20 years.”

- Coach Frizzle, Rusty Meier

“We talk to ourselves like trash and we never progress any further. And it’s a really sucky place to be in because in reality, it is just as easy for you to see yourself as wildly successful and capable and strong and in control as it is for you to see yourself as a giant sucky thing. It’s just as easy. It’s just what you’re choosing.”
