325: Weight loss after 40 + Building sustainable habits

A listener's real-life journey of personal development, weight loss and growth

Today, we're catching up with Mandy K, who you might remember from episode 316, which was originally recorded in 2021. I highly recommend listening to that show so that you can follow along in this real-life journey. In that conversation, we discussed Mandy on the "weight loss roller coaster" and the deprivation-binge cycle; her fears and realizations around intuitive eating, and her discovery that mindset was the key all along; and, the real secret behind accomplishing what you want when can’t seem to start.

Flash forward to present day, and Mandy's story is one of curiosity, consistency, and personal growth, and she's here to share her updates with us in real time.


In this episode:

  • Mandy's transformation beyond her 30lb weight loss - how a health kick spawned a journey of self-exploration

  • Fat loss, fitness and intermittent fasting
  • Dealing with body image and expectations

  • The iterative journey of self-improvement

  • The tendency to compare ourselves to past versions of us
  • Confidence and self-esteem - Mandy's mindset shift
  • The journey to self-validation and building self-belief

"It's not about the destination; it's truly about the journey. Stay curious, stay consistent, and most importantly, stay true to yourself."
