This week, I’m helping you create powerful prompts for ChatGPT or voice notes that you can listen to daily.

I’ll also share some of the key learnings from this week to help you stay inspired and on track.Lose weight with my hypnotherapy recordings ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://happyweight.ie/happy-hypno-weight-course/⁠⁠⁠⁠Work with me 1-1 ⁠⁠https://happyweight.ie/happy-weight-programme/⁠⁠⁠⁠NEW Happy Weight Newsletter ⁠⁠⁠https://happyweight.ie/newsletter/⁠⁠⁠Follow Aoife on⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/happyweightaoife⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@happyweightaoife⁠⁠The Happy Weight Podcast is produced by Jack Foley⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/ackoley/

Weight-loss shows like The Biggest Loser were wrong on so many levels. We know that now. After watching the new Netflix documentary Fit for TV, I’m taking a trip down bad memory lane to revisit their toxic diet-culture.

Health is about more happiness not more pain. *mentioned episode: Ep. 8 Losing Weight With Hypnosis-The Happy Weight Podcasthttps://open.spotify.com/episode/0C1WcBQcQ68fAiCVrz4rnn?si=ad5dcba449ad4adbLose weight with my hypnotherapy recordings ⁠⁠⁠https://happyweight.ie/happy-hypno-weight-course/⁠⁠⁠Work with me 1-1 ⁠https://happyweight.ie/happy-weight-programme/⁠⁠⁠NEW Happy Weight Newsletter ⁠⁠https://happyweight.ie/newsletter/⁠⁠Follow Aoife on⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/happyweightaoife⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@happyweightaoife⁠⁠The Happy Weight Podcast is produced by Jack Foley⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/ackoley/

You are making strides forward with your body image and eating. Moving away from diet culture and starting to feel better. Then you go home, and certain family members trigger you. All your doubts and fears return, and so does out-of-control eating. This episode is your survival guide for being around family or friends who still partake in diet culture or body shaming. ⁠See happyweight.ie for more information.

How we look at things can make us avoid, dread or procrastinate on actions that would make us feel way better & help us reach our potential. So we continue to miss out, mentally & physically. In this episode I help you reframe things so you things don’t feel dull. Avoiding these common things will help you feel a bit more excited, empowered & confident about where you are & where you are going.⁠See happyweight.ie for more information.

We need to feel empowered in order to reach any big goal. Feeling empowered means not blaming anyone or anything else and instead reminding ourselves of a few home truths. See happyweight.ie for more information.

To lose weight we don’t have to find diets. We need to reduce the spikes in overeating, that keep us at a higher weight.We put ourselves in situations that will always result in overeating or being out of control with food. Situations that people without weight problems would never put themselves in. In this episode I highlight the most common situation & cycle to avoid. See happyweight.ie for more information.

Letting go of weight means stopping ourselves from our self sabotage cycles.Like weighing ourselves, which 9/10 times leads us to say “ you see nothing works, I’ll never change” which gives us an excuse to ignore physical cues & overeat & the self fulfilling prophecy cycle starts all over again. This episode is in response to a DM asking if we stop using the scales how can we ensure we don’t gain weight & are actually progressing . Hope it helps ♥️See happyweight.ie for more information

Feeling shame isn’t you reacting to where you are. It’s you creating where you’re going to go next. Everyone overeats or puts on weight from time to time but not everyone will react with shame & self loathing. Feeling shame is the opposite mode to reaching your potential. The aim of this episode is to help you notice your shame, stop it, reduce it so you can move forward quicker.See happyweight.ie for more information.

The more we overeat the less enjoyable food is as our pleasure centres & taste buds desensitise to deter us from eating. This means more “Meh” tasting foods & underwhelming food experiences. The benefit of sorting out your eating isn’t just weight loss. It’s also so you can finally get the joy, comfort & pleasure that others get, that we’ve never experienced because of dieting & overeating. See happyweight.ie for more information.

Unlearning guilt is such a huge, huge part of letting go of weight & eating issues. Guilt always results in punishing & sabotaging behaviours with food, ensuring we stay at a higher weight.As we turn down the volume on guilt we make minding our body & helping it reach it’s potential possible.See happyweight.ie for more information.

Crisps are one of those foods that are super easy to mindlessly overeat. But cutting them out isn’t an option either because it increases the chances of overeating & binging leading to weight problems. This episode gives you tips on how to eat them, love them but not overeat them.See happyweight.ie for more information.
