One of the most common issues folks come into GMB Eating Skills wanting to work on is snacking after dinner. There’s nothing wrong with eating after dinner, in and of itself.

So, this is not about when you choose to eat the most delicious thing ever, and you turn off the TV to savor and enjoy it. We’re all about that. This is about the food you find yourself eating, then later ask, “Why did I eat that?” This is about the chips th ..read more

Safety checks: Important in both rock climbing and intentional weight loss There’s a in inherent danger in both rock climbing and weight loss, but most people can manage it (in either one) with safety precautions. With rock climbing, you need a rope and safety checks. Pursuing weight loss, you need your values and safety checks. I know that there’s an entire diet world that’s telling you that dieting is constantly necessary. That all of your self-worth depends on your weight. That dieting is a moral imperative. That’s gross. On the other end of the spectrum, there’s an anti-diet world that ..read more

We talked about: Levels of motivation Stress eating Skills vs guidelines vs diet rules How to use your experience in a gym as a metaphor to get better at eating skills I know a lot of my clients have really gotten a lot out that “levels of motivation” conversation. Also, folks who are coming from diet world tend to really need the skills vs rules part… …while folks who have been working on something like intuitive eating tend to get a lot out of the skills vs guidelines part. I think that there’s a lot here that folks might find useful. https://podcasts.apple.com/ie/podcast/lean-strong-jos ..read more

Or, the way that I read the book: Strong Men Stand with Women The first time I saw Molly Galbraith speak was at a fitness conference. At the time, most of the speakers in the industry were men, and most of the resources for trainers were by men and for men. Molly was well-known for Girls Gone Strong, and being a pioneer and leader in the creation of resources for women in fitness. At that conference, she was doing a talk on how to be a better coach for women. It was a packed house. The room was full of dudes who recognized that most of their clients were women, and they wanted to know how to ..read more

Should you do intermittent fasting?

Put a lot of time into this article on intermittent fasting — who it works for and who it doesn’t work for (if someone has a weight loss goal). The thing is — it actually comes down to what makes it easiest for you to self-regulate food intake. Most people fall in one range of meals per day, other folks fall into different ranges. The cool thing is, if you work on eating skills and guidelines, that sorts itself out on its own. You don’t need someone else to give you the arbitrary rules that worked for them. P.S. how many people are going to hate me after reading this article? LOL kidding, I th ..read more
