In this week’s episode, Catherine and Donald talk about depression and how it relates to weight loss and how the tools to push past your thoughts are where change comes from.  A recipe or a diet plan is not going to cure your depression; you have to work on the way you think about your thoughts.  Catherine talks about how disconnecting her feelings from her actions has been critical in achieving her weight loss goals.  The Tip of the Week (TOW!) is to pick a love song for yourself and the Product of the Week (POW!) is wireless headphones.  As Catherine says, “Learn to invest in the light”.  As she also says, “Must be nice”.
