EP#192: How to Eat Like an Italian
Weight Loss for Foodies podcast | Ditch the Diet and Lose Weight with Shari Broder
How do Italians eat pasta every day and not gain weight? Why do they have the lowest obesity rate in Western Europe? Why they don’t gain weight as easily as Americans do? In October, I was really fortunate to spend two weeks in northern Italy. I visited Venice, Verona, Florence, and Tuscany, specifically the medieval walled hill towns of San Gimignano, Siena and Volterra. They were each wonderful in their own way. I had a fantastic time, and really loved it there. While I was there, I talked to a few American expats. One American woman in Florence told me, “I’ve been...

EP. #191: How to Reach Your Goals By Taking Baby Steps
Weight Loss for Foodies podcast | Ditch the Diet and Lose Weight with Shari Broder
How many times have you heard this saying? “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” So many people get stuck and have difficulty reaching their weight goals (and any other goal for that matter) because they get caught in a repetitive pattern of doing the same thing that doesn’t work, or that makes things worse,, over and over again. Maybe you keep stopping at that bakery on your way to work, buying three pastries under the pretense that you’ll share them or save some for tomorrow, then eat them all. Maybe you binge on chips after...

EP. #190: How You Think About Food You Eat Affects Weight Loss
Weight Loss for Foodies podcast | Ditch the Diet and Lose Weight with Shari Broder
Do you eat foods you don’t like very much because they’re low in calories or carbs, then feel unsatisfied afterwards and still crave something tastier? There’s a scientific reason behind that! I have something exciting and NEW to share with you about mindset and eating. Surprising evidence supports the role of mindset in weight management in a totally unexpected way. How you think about what you’re eating affects your weight! What that means is what you think about your food affects how your body responds to it physiologically.

EP. #189: How to Deal with Comments about Weight & Eating
Weight Loss for Foodies podcast | Ditch the Diet and Lose Weight with Shari Broder
Do you have family members who make comments about your weight, other people’s weight, their own weight, or what you should and shouldn’t eat? Do you have friends or family who are always talking about their latest diet? It’s summer vacation, which for many of us means eating meals with family members we don’t see all the time. For some of us, that’s a blessing. For others, it can be very difficult and stressful. For many people, dealing with their extended family is wrought with all kinds of mixed emotions and potentially difficult interactions. As a weight coach, one...

EP. 188: How to Effectively Use the Hunger Scale
Weight Loss for Foodies podcast | Ditch the Diet and Lose Weight with Shari Broder
When was the last time you felt physically hungry? Do you eat in response to your body’s hunger signals? Or do you eat for all kinds of other reasons that have nothing to do with your body’s need for food? One of the most important tenets of the Weight Loss for Foodies approach is to only eat when you’re physically hungry, and stop eating when you’re lightly full. The reason this is so important is that when you only feed your body when it’s hungry, and stop eating when you’re lightly full, you give your body the amount of food it needs to be your healthy weight. ...

EP. #187-How to Trust Yourself Around Any Food
Weight Loss for Foodies podcast | Ditch the Diet and Lose Weight with Shari Broder
If you want to lose weight, how you THINK about food is even more important than what you eat. You see, your mindset about food and eating, especially if it’s a diet mindset, could be the single biggest thing standing between you and weight loss success. The good news is all you have to do to change that is change how you think! And that’s one of the few things in life we can actually control. The reason why diets don’t work for sustainable weight loss is because they teach you to think of food as scarce. When you think of food as scarce, you set yourself up for a...

EP. #186: A Rule Hater's Guide to Food Rules
Weight Loss for Foodies podcast | Ditch the Diet and Lose Weight with Shari Broder
Do you have a lot of rules about what you can and can’t eat? Some people have lists of food rules that are almost as long as the United States tax code. No sugar. No carbs. No refined flour. Only eat fruit before noon. No fried foods. No dairy. No gluten. Eat 5 servings of fruits and vegetables every day. Drink apple cider vinegar before every meal. Only eat during an eight-hour window. You get the idea. Well guess what? These rules are probably keeping you from losing weight. You can overeat healthy food. I know....

Can Eating What You Love Help Your Metabolism?
Weight Loss for Foodies podcast | Ditch the Diet and Lose Weight with Shari Broder
Eat what you love and increase your metabolism? That’s entirely possible, and there’s even science to back it up. Eating mindfully and savoring food away from the distractions of your smartphone, the television or other distractions, can actually help you lose weight. I was surprised to learn this, too, but a study done a few years ago at North Carolina State University backs it up! I am not saying that simply eating what you love will help you lose weight. It’s more complicated than that. But there are lots of ways you will benefit from eating what you...

Weight Loss for Foodies podcast | Ditch the Diet and Lose Weight with Shari Broder
You’ve decided you’re going to finally do what you need to do to lose those extra pounds. Starting today, you’ve resolved to eat better. You’re going to eat only when you’re hungry. You make a yummy salad and bring it to work for lunch. You vow to eat fewer sweets and exercise for an hour three times a week. Then you stop in the grocery store, and they are giving away free doughnuts to customers. You had oatmeal for breakfast and aren’t hungry, but you grab a chocolate glazed one and wolf it down while walking to the cash register. At lunch, your...

EP. #183: Why inspiration won't get you to your weight goal, and what will
Weight Loss for Foodies podcast | Ditch the Diet and Lose Weight with Shari Broder
Do you get derailed from your efforts to lose weight because you lose your inspiration? How do you stay on track long enough to get results? So often, people ask me how to stay inspired to eat right and lose weight. Many people believe that inspiration is what you need to be successful, but that’s a fallacy. Sure, inspiration is great! It feels good, and it makes doing certain things easier. For a little while. The problem is that you CAN’T stay inspired for very long, no matter how well things are going. Maybe you can stay inspired to do something for a...
