We Only LOOK Thin

If you listened to last week’s episode, your life has been more meaningful.  You also know that sometimes, in both business and weight loss and fitness, people sometimes focus on the wrong things.  This week, Catherine and Donald talk about not giving all of our energy to the habits that won’t really get you to your goals.  Figuring out that motion does not always equal action, can help you go from Thinbox Zero to Thinbox Hero.  Plus, Catherine can make a bed in 5 seconds, Donald gets giddy with glee, and the couple are people who look like people.

Inbox Zero is an approach to email with the aim of keeping your inbox empty, or almost empty, at all times.  Some talk about “inbox zero” as if it’s productivity nirvana, but has any top business leader ever attributed their success to keeping their email inbox empty?  In the same way with weight loss and fitness, people can put all their attention on particular habits while ignoring others.  Are you focusing on the wrong thing?  This week, Catherine and Donald ask you to look at what your priority is and decide if it’s really what’s going to move your weight loss and fitness needle.  Just because you have intention, doesn’t mean that you are taking any action.  Plus, Donald stays up all night, Catherine is a boot scooter, and the couple tell you how to turn that white knuckle into a normal colored knuckle.

To some of us, a car represents freedom.  The freedom to secret eat.  Are you escaping to your vehicle so that you can eat away from prying eyes?  Do you keep “just happening” to drive past that fast-food restaurant that you can’t resist?  Are you “accidentally” putting treats in the front seat next to you when you buy groceries?  Catherine and Donald have both been there.  This week, the couple talk about all the ways in which they used their cars to sabotage their eating habits and they help you learn from their mistakes.   You can make your relationship with food and your vehicle a healthy one with the right mindset and planning.  Plus, Catherine asks what a car is, Donald has a telltale plastic triangle on his seat, and are you a victim of your haunted vehicle?  Listen to find out.

If you’re like some people, you’ve probably driven a vehicle.  If you’re like others, you’ve probably ridden in a vehicle.  You may have even taken a trip in said vehicle on a road.  If you have taken one of these “Road Trips”, you may have found it difficult to stay on your fitness and weight loss plan.  You may even have used the trip as an excuse not to.  This week, Catherine and Donald take you through ways in which you can go on that road trip and be proud of your choices afterwards.  You have the opportunity to take agency for your actions, plan ahead, and set yourself up for success.  Plus, Catherine tamps it down and cages it up, no one is more surprised by today’s topic than Donald, and the couple rehearse all of their banter.

People.  No matter how hard you try to make yourself undesirable, they will eventually want to come and visit you.  Or worse, trick you into going to visit them.  You might think that these visits are the perfect excuse to stop burning calories and eat all the food.  This week, Catherine and Donald show you that you are oh, so wrong.  The couple relay strategies that will give you the edge to stay on your health and fitness plan even when other people are involved. Plus, Donald gets loosey-goosey, Catherine won’t even pretend to be exciting, and the couple like talking on their couch. Join WOLT Place!

This week, the couple has too many chuckles and not enough chuckles at the same time.  Are you planning a weekend getaway or full-fledged vacation this summer?  As more opportunities open up for travel, Catherine and Donald present strategies and tips for sticking to your fitness and weight-loss plan, or at least for limiting the damage, while getting away from it all.    You have the opportunity as a grownup who puts food in your own mouth to make choices that you are proud of.  Plus, Catherine gets fancy and DOESN’T use paper plates, Donald might be a robot, and no one knows if there’s butter at Knott’s Berry Farm.

Please have a Gregorian Calendar handy as you listen.  Well, maybe not if you’re driving or taking a shower.  This week, Catherine and Donald ask you to look ahead at your Summer (in the Northern Hemisphere at least) and plan ahead for weight loss and fitness success.  Don’t use all of the “special” summer occasions coming up as an excuse to eat like Donald and Catherine did for years and years.  Is your calendar in alignment with your overall health and fitness goals?  Plus, Catherine saves a lot of time by using abbreviations, Donald gets serious and talks like a robot, and the couple stays together out of spite.

It turns out that you CAN handle the truth.  Lots and lots of truth, even when it’s hard.  In the third and final installment of the series that some are calling the Trilogy of Truth, the couple give you even more than 10 more things that you don’t want to hear about weight loss.  Are you being honest with yourself?  Are you as short on time as you say you are?  You might not want to know the answers.  Plus, Catherine unleashes marriage garbage, Donald prays to the Health and Fitness Fairy, and the couple have way too much caffeine.

The couple unleash more hard truth upon you.  In part 2 of their series of an indeterminate number of things that you don’t want to hear, Catherine and Donald give you another roughly 10 things about weight loss and fitness that you don’t want to know.  What you might be avoiding, is yourself.  Plus, Catherine doesn’t know what she already said, Donald Loves the bus, and Metamucil will not be a sponsor of the show.

The thing about Hard Truths is that they are both true and hard to hear.  This week, Catherine and Donald put aside their usual supportive and inspiring schtick and present the first part of An Indeterminate Number of Things You Don’t Want to Hear About Weight Loss and Fitness, But You Should.   Super catchy title and easy to say and remember.  They say that a spoon full of sugar helps the medicine go down, but this is a straight medicine episode.  Plus, Catherine announces the banter, Donald gets on the pain train, and the couple make it as complicated as possible.
