Jay Nixon | Break Free From Yo-Yo Weight Loss With These Fat Loss Tips KKP: 679

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Jay Nixon. He is a skilled speaker, author, coach, and mentor for anyone looking to get results and permanently alter their way of life. Over the years, Jay has helped thousands of people gain confidence and be their best selves. He hosts a podcast called "Thrive Forever Fit", which covers topics related to diet, exercise, and mentality that can influence how we feel and behave.

Jay’s father was killed in an accident when he was five. As a coping mechanism for the tragedy, food became his way to comfort himself and led him to overweight. But even in this condition, Jay has always been interested in fitness and nutrition.

When he got older, Jay engaged to different sports that helped him on his weight journey. However, he still struggled with his mind as he is anxious about how his body looks. Nonetheless, he became a personal trainer at 17, and since then, Jay has begun to find the path to where he belongs. Ultimately, he decided to open his gym, started writing books, and began his career on coaching people.

Thrive Fitness Studio is the name of his gym and everything associated with it is called Thrive Forever Fit because Jay believes we should do something consistently for as long as we live. He wanted to teach people how to live comfortably so that we wouldn't have to do radical things that have been proven to be failures.

In this episode, Jay Nixon digs into the issues and wrong beliefs that hinder people from achieving a healthy body and lifestyle. Additionally, Jay emphasizes the value of having the correct mindset when losing weight and some takeaways you can implement immediately to begin your journey towards forever fitness. Tune in as we chat about the mindset around the food, myths about losing weight, advice to start right away, and the difference between intelligent work rather than hard work.

This episode originally aired in December 2022.

[00:00] Struggling to Have a Healthy Body? The Problem is You, Not the Food

• There's a lot of drug abuse on the scene in bodybuilding. There's not a lot of alcohol consumption, but there's a lot of prescription and recreational drug use.
• Your mindset around the food is the real issue, not the food itself.
• Food is more like fuel and a resource to nourish and do what your body wants.
• Instead of creating a short-term sustainable diet, make a lifestyle that you are comfortable maintaining forever.

[17:00] The Wrong Beliefs in Losing Weight That You Should Avoid

• You don’t need to starve yourself.
•  It's a myth that there's good versus bad food. What we are talking about is real food, not with those different chemicals.
•  Counting macros and calories, it's not sustainable.
• Developed a lifestyle where you understand what food looks like and what it will do when you eat it.
•  People just want to be told what to do instead of learning what to do.

[25:50] What is The Value of Having the Right Mindset in Losing Weight?

• This has nothing to do with the food, and nothing to do with being overweight. The weight loss was a side effect. It’s all about the brain and the mind.
• The book is about psychological reasons I learned working with clients and myself over time.
•  It was always the story, the mindset, or the belief systems that the client had psychologically that were the issue. 
• Jay uses fitness and nutrition to get people into my world, and then he unpacks the real reasons why they're there.
•  It will be useless to stay with the same beliefs you had before Jay.

[32:16] Increase Your Thermostat: Love Yourself and Maintain Your Fitness

•  We have a lot of limiting beliefs, and we have a lot of self-doubts that hold us back.
• Sometimes, giving a compliment to someone who is not in the right frame of mind can affect them negatively.
•  It all starts with the psychology of what you believe you deserve.
• Jay’s favorite saying is that you'll never be, do or have more than you believe you deserve. 

[34:20] How Can You Begin Your Lifelong Journey Towards a Healthy Lifestyle?

• First, Jay helps you to recognize the negative language you are using and change it. Then he will talk about the belief system of who you believe you are.
• Jay won't let you lie to yourself, but he won't be cruel. He will inform you in a kind manner.
•  If you're using the word “try”, start telling yourself, " I will do what's required. If you'll change your language, it will change your life. 
• If you continually break promises to yourself, that will create a lack of self-belief or a lack of confidence or just that lack of mentality. 

[42:05] Hard work vs Intelligent Work: What is the Difference?

• He realizes that most people say they are hardworking, which made him think about its variability and subjectivity. 
• Most of the things he does would not prescribe as hard, but they require him to do them intelligently.
• There is much more value in being intelligent in food, how our body moves, and how we speak and act rather than working hard.

AND MUCH MORE!
