Bonus Minisode - Be Wonderful
I have long aspired to be wonderful in every sense of the word. Striving to get there was part of the challenge, but the hardest bit was changing how I saw myself. When I was obese I was full of judgement and self-hatred. I didn’t feel much better about myself when I lost weight, aside from being proud of my newfound willpower.Everything fell into place when I decided to believe I was wonderful. So much so, that I celebrate it as an annual event. I invite you to join in with me to celebrate self-love, eliminate negativity and care for ourselves in the way we really need. What could be more wonderful than that?wordstolosebypod@gmail.com@wordstolosebyMusicTama – Springtime SecretARISU – When You’re ReadyMassobeats – LavenderChillpeach – One ThingZane Alexander - Galaxy

53 - Make it Right, Don't Make it Worse
It's so tempting to let a problem slide, be it an issue at work, a relationship that isn't working or our food habits. The thought of tackling things head on can be so overwhelming that you might want to shy away from action. Sadly, that's unlikely to improve the situation.But don't despair. Any situation can be made right. The decision is in your hands. Do you let things deteriorate? Or do you take every effort to make things right?Music Tama - Springtime SecretDust Diggers & Hicks - Shibuya SkyFool Parsley - AnywaysARISU - When You're ReadyMoonboy - First SnowDust Diggers - Soul GardenMoonboy - Marlboro ManTama - Sunflower FieldKyu - First Love

52 - You Can't Outrun a Bad Diet
Short episode alert!It’s pretty straightforward. High calorie food is simply too high calorie to fit into a balanced diet in anything other than a small quantity. Sometimes we want to have our cake and eat it too, and endeavour to burn off thousands of extra calories so we can binge on junk.A healthy diet will treat your body so much better. When your diet is whole and natural, there’s nothing to outrun.wordstolosebypod@gmail.com@wordstolosebyMusicTama – Springtime SecretAdes Lofi - OhmaigahLAKEY INSPIRED - Blue BoiLangston - Pure Gold

51 - The Impossible is Conquered by the Obstinate Repetition of the Possible
You might be convinced it’s impossible to lose weight. You feel like you’ve tried everything, but nothing changes. Having spent 10 years at double the healthy weight of someone my height, I understand why you might feel that way. I felt so stuck in the cycle of overeating and weight gain. Any effort to fight against it seemed futile.Thinking about doing all the work at once can be so daunting you’re reluctant to even try. But chopping it up into smaller challenges makes it far more achievable. Don’t make one all-encompassing effort, make a bunch of little ones. There are small, possible steps that you can take today that will eventually lead to the impossible. wordstolosebypod@gmail.com@wordstolosebyMusicTama – Springtime SecretMoochi – AmnesiaLukrembo – Castle@vladgluschenkomusic – PeaceTomppabeats – Far AwayCamel Club – Second ChancesChillpeach - Baguette

OPPOSITE DAY - bEiNg oVeRwEiGhT iS a cHoIcE
I can see why people think this, particularly if they themselves have never been overweight. As someone who’s been through it I understand how we can wind up with weight problems against our will. That’s not that part that we choose. Changing is.You can choose to change your life in an instant. Believe you’re capable and make your choice. Enough good choices lead to enormous changes, and your entire life could transform before your eyes.wordstolosebypod@gmail.com@wordstolosebyMusicPop Culture – Kingdom of OneLate Night – Midnight ThoughtsVibes – My Heart is TrueHicks & Langston – The Melody of YouPop Culture & Moonboy – CapybaraJujutsu Kaisen – Purple HollowUnfeel – Giving HopeUnfeel – All OutUnfeel – FashionPopoi – Dorila y Mello

50 - Don't Wish for it, Work for it
It would be lovely if there were magical solutions to our problems. Sadly, that’s beyond the realm of possibility. What is possible though, is starting the work. It might not feel like that’s the case, but I assure you it is. You have to believe you’re capable. That’s going to catapult your progress.If all you ever do is wish to be at the finish line, just know that in reality you’ll never get there if you don’t start moving. Every step gets you closer, and a little more of the work will be complete. Before long, your wishes can come true. But only if you work for it.wordstolosebypod@gmail.com@wordstolosebyMusicTama – Springtime SecretMassobeats – LavenderMoon Ghetto & Pevanni – Backseat BluesLakey Inspired – The ProcessMassobeats - CloudyPop Culture – Kingdom of OneDust Diggers – Get CloseFlwrz - Reunited

49 - Fail to Plan, Plan to Fail
Losing weight can be a battle, but having a plan can shield you from the hardest blows. Personally, I succumb to my urges to overeat the quickest when I haven’t planned a healthy meal. I feel intimidated by all the gym equipment when I walk in without a clue where to start.Preparing ahead of time helps me get through cravings and temptations. It’s obviously okay to splurge once in a while, but doing it on a regular basis will only upend your progress. Get out ahead of it, and it will feel less of a battle. I can all but guarantee it.wordstolosebypod@gmail.com@wordstolosebyMusicTama – Springtime SecretLate Night – Midnight ThoughtsLate Night – Find Your LoveHicks & Langston – The Melody Of YouKyu – Some Days In AugustARISU, Hicks & Moonboy – Out Of ReachTokyo Music Walker – AfterglowTama – Starlit PathKyu – Inner Peace

48 - Watch Your Habits, Not Your Weight
A common pitfall in weight loss is to get side tracked by your goal weight. I would stand on the scale every day and do the mental maths to see how far away I was from success.If I could go back now, I’d do things differently. Instead of counting every pound I had left to lose, I could have focused on my behaviour. I should have nurtured my new habits and celebrated them. That would have been much better than beating myself up with an arbitrary number on the scale.Notice your habits, assess how much they’re serving you and adjust them accordingly. You’ll find much more success that way than obsessing over being a particular weight.wordstolosebypod@gmail.com@wordstolosebyMusicTama – Springtime SecretDust Diggers - Purple HollowLangston & Dust Diggers - Make it RainNobel & Toti Cisneros- Say You Love itSheath & Hotpotatoes - Mocha MorningPop Culture & Moonboy - Yeah YeahHicks, Tama & Dust Diggers - Sweet SpotMoonboy & Langston - New YorkFlwrz, Hicks & ARISU - EchoesTama, Hicks & Pop Culture - My Heart is TrueARISU, Langston & Moonboy - Find Your Love
