Description

Welcome to the Real Life Weight Loss Podcast where we cut through the confusion and get down to the truth - down to what really works for REAL people when it comes to losing weight and keeping it off. We're diving into the most doable, sustainable weight loss strategies.

This podcast is all about busy moms, dads, husbands, wives who are working, raising kids, and trying to juggle everything life’s throwing at them … but also want to be the best they can for their family and friends and loved ones.

I’m your host Corey Little, a nutritionist and weight loss specialist with 2 degrees, 3 certifications, and 20 years of experience. I've been a champion bodybuilder with 3% body-fat and I’ve also pigged out at all-you-can-eat buffets and have a deep love of food and enjoying life like crazy! So, I’m not some Nutrition Robot or extremist. I’m a real person just like you who loves the good things in life - friends, family, and all the delicious food that comes with it.

So, make no mistake - this podcast is NOT about how to get six-pack abs or how to drop as much weight as possible in 8 weeks. There’s more to life than abs and there’s more to your body than how much you weigh.

Honestly, weight loss is not really about losing weight … it’s about gaining life! Doing things you never thought you could. Having renewed confidence. And enjoying your body and your health more than ever.

Week by week, I’ll provide bite-sized guidance - 15 to 20 minute episodes that pull back the curtain and reveal the truth about what it takes to lose weight and gain life - what strategy and approach real people are using to get results without giving up their day-to-day life.

And here’s the really cool part …

It’s really not as hard or confusing as you might think.

Changing your body, getting crazy healthy, and demanding success from life is do-able for everyone - and it can be fun - and I’ll show you how.

Want some tips on how to not gain weight during the holidays? Well, it all starts by eating whatever you want. I know, I know. It sounds crazy. It sounds totally wrong. But I believe doing the opposite and trying to restrict yourself or diet through the holidays is screwing you up more than you realize. There are 4 big ways you can really mess up your weight loss goals on Thanksgiving or during the holiday season overall. I want to help you avoid those pitfalls and enjoy the delicious food more than ever. In this episode, you’ll learn …What REALLY messes you up on holidays (it’s not what you think!)The self-defeating approach so many people accidentally takeAn “on-off” trap that you need to avoidThe thoughts that you *think* are helping, but really are sabotaging youA secret weapon to enjoy more and eat less with zero guilt! And by the way, all of this works for ANY holiday. It’s applicable for Thanksgiving or any event that centers around food. TRANSFORMATION TRINITY CLASS: http://www.EverybodyHatesDiets.comFREE MENOPAUSE DOWNLOAD: http://coreylittlecoaching.com/menopause
My mom avoided being in pictures. She didn’t like seeing herself in 99% of photos. For years I didn’t think much about it. But I think a lot more about it now. I have an evolving perspective on this subject.  It might challenge you. It might make you think. It might make you sad. It might make you mad. Regardless, I hope you’ll just hear me out. If you hate seeing yourself in pictures … If you totally avoid being in photos … Then this episode is for you.TRANSFORMATION TRINITY CLASS: http://www.EverybodyHatesDiets.com
James was constantly on and off the diet wagon. He tried Atkins, South Beach, Calorie tracking, and intermittent fasting. He lost weight with all of those. They all worked … for a little while. But they felt restrictive and burdensome. And he would always quit and gain all the weight back. He lost and regained the same 20 pounds for years and years. Sound familiar? He started to think - I’m different. There’s something wrong with me. Then he thought - Maybe I just need to find the “right diet”. But then he found a totally different model … a totally different approach to losing weight and being healthy. Listen to James tell his story from years of struggle, mental turmoil, and a toxic relationship with the scales … to … low-stress success with his body. Here are some snippets from his story . . . I could stick with it for a few weeks, but I could never do it for long. I was going through this cycle where I would get on the scale after I ate bad and then I would feel terrible about myself. If the scale went down, I was happy. If it went up, I was mean to myself and to others. I felt terrible, weak, and undisciplined. Should you eat carbs? Should you not eat carbs? Should you eat eggs? Should you not eat eggs? I thought I just needed to find the right diet. TRANSFORMATION TRINITY CLASS: http://www.EverybodyHatesDiets.com
Is BMI Accurate?

Is BMI Accurate?

What is BMI?Is BMI accurate?Is BMI outdated? Is BMI a good indicator of health?How do I get BMI down?The good ol’ BMI. It’s been terrorizing people for many many years. We all know how it goes, right?Go to your doctor. They weigh you. Then they show you the BMI chart and tell you that you need to lose weight. And you go home and cry because what the BMI says is such a low number and you feel like there’s no way you’ll ever get there. You’ve been trying to lose weight for so long! And it’s just so dang hard! If you connect with any of this, then this episode is for you. It’s time to ask some questions, demystify, and debunk the Body Mass Index. Plus, I’ll provide some very specific steps on how to find your “best weight range”.  Grab a pen, you’re going to want to take notes! TRANSFORMATION TRINITY CLASS: http://www.EverybodyHatesDiets.com
Sometimes I have an interaction on a coaching call and I’m like “this is pure gold”. And I KNOW it would be so helpful for all of you amazing podcast listeners, but I totally respect that those conversations are private and I usually just let it pass. But every now and then I might reach out to the person and ask for their permission to share it on the podcast. That’s exactly what recently happened and exactly what this episode is all about. It’s not perfect or scripted. It’s real, raw, honest, and off the cuff. Interestingly, I believe it’s a great follow-up to the last episode, because we talk a bit about goals and what’s next for Audrey.  As she was talking, I don’t think she realized it at all, but there’s just so much truth and so much insight.  And I wanted you to get a glimpse of what REAL life-changing results sound like. This podcast is all about being real - REAL people … REAL goals … REAL results … REAL insights … REAL life change. Also . . . If you want to know how to achieve your pre-baby weight, then you might want to listen to what Audrey has to say ;) TRANSFORMATION TRINITY CLASS: http://www.EverybodyHatesDiets.com
Do you have a weight loss goal? Should you write your goals down? Should you read your goals everyday? When it comes to goals, there are so many questions, suggestions, and “experts” telling you what to do. And if you ever meet with a trainer or nutritionist, there’s a good chance their first words might even be - Okay, what are your goals? Goals are everywhere! And they’re so important, right? I mean … goals are good, right?  Ehh, they can be. But it’s not always that simple. There’s a fundamental truth in life that definitely applies to your goals. It can possibly even cause your goal to work against you and maybe even cause you to quit to your diet or weight loss program!  Today, I’m going to explain this “basic truth”, two problems that it can cause when it comes to your body and losing weight, and then I’ll give my specific recommendation on how to avoid these pitfalls. Plus, I’ll offer my two cents on the best way to pursue your weight loss goals.COREY'S ANTI-DIET CLASS: http://www.AntiDietClass.comFREE MENOPAUSE DOWNLOAD: http://coreylittlecoaching.com/menopausePURCHASE RISE NUTRITION PRODUCTSWebsite: https://challenge2rise.com/Elite Omega-3 on Amazon: https://a.co/d/3dgilSGEssential Nutrients on Amazon: https://a.co/d/6rcULakElite Nutrients on Amazon: https://a.co/d/duQn1TD

Maybe I’m just a weirdo or I just think too much, but I often see parallels and lessons from so many life events that I believe we can learn from to help us in other areas of life. This happened recently when Hurricane Helene passed over where I live in the state of Georgia and then went on to have a devastating impact on parts of Tennessee, western North Carolina, as well as parts of south Georgia. There are probably hundreds of things we can learn from this hurricane, but today, I want to share 5 things this storm taught me about our brain, body, and your pursuit of weight loss (and really, just life in general). We’ll cover . . . How our brain is wired to react to scary stuffSomething that’s true with storms and just about everything else in lifeThe wise thing to do when we’re worried or overwhelmedThe good part about really bad thingsHow a “nervous system fire” might be making you miserableCOREY'S ANTI-DIET CLASS: http://www.AntiDietClass.comFREE MENOPAUSE DOWNLOAD: http://coreylittlecoaching.com/menopausePURCHASE RISE NUTRITION PRODUCTSWebsite: https://challenge2rise.com/Elite Omega-3 on Amazon: https://a.co/d/3dgilSGEssential Nutrients on Amazon: https://a.co/d/6rcULakElite Nutrients on Amazon: https://a.co/d/duQn1TD
One of the most common mistakes I see is something called the “Junk Drawer Syndrome.” It can negatively impact your weight loss efforts, but that’s not all. It can also cause issues in just about any area of life. As if that’s not bad enough . . . This “junk drawer mentality” often keeps you from getting the help or guidance you need, which will tremendously slow down or stall out your progress. Then, if we’re not careful, it might lead to shame, embarrassment, confusion, and maybe even an unhealthy mindset where our pride and ego takes centerstage. In this episode, I explain what “Junk Drawer Syndrome” is, the problems it causes, and why we do it. Then I offer some questions and suggestions to help you avoid falling into this common mental trap. COREY'S ANTI-DIET CLASS: http://www.AntiDietClass.comFREE MENOPAUSE DOWNLOAD: http://coreylittlecoaching.com/menopausePURCHASE RISE NUTRITION PRODUCTSWebsite: https://challenge2rise.com/Elite Omega-3 on Amazon: https://a.co/d/3dgilSGEssential Nutrients on Amazon: https://a.co/d/6rcULakElite Nutrients on Amazon: https://a.co/d/duQn1TD
Are you really tough on yourself? Do you struggle with procrastination?Have a hard time making decisions? Do you just feel mentally exhausted? When it comes to losing weight, do you feel the need to “start fresh Monday” after you mess up? If you answered “yes” to some of these questions, then this episode is for you. It’s an episode especially for us perfectionists. We might mistakenly see it as a badge of honor, but it just might be crippling you, causing more harm than help. You’re about to learn why and how perfectionism impacts your life and weight loss efforts. We’ll cover the 3 things that come as a package deal with perfectionism. And, if you’re ready, I’ve got 5 tips to help you overcome perfectionist tendencies and live a life with more freedom and less stress!COREY'S ANTI-DIET CLASS: http://www.AntiDietClass.comFREE MENOPAUSE DOWNLOAD: http://coreylittlecoaching.com/menopausePURCHASE RISE NUTRITION PRODUCTSWebsite: https://challenge2rise.com/Elite Omega-3 on Amazon: https://a.co/d/3dgilSGEssential Nutrients on Amazon: https://a.co/d/6rcULakElite Nutrients on Amazon: https://a.co/d/duQn1TD
If you try to lose weight, but wind up the same or even gaining a little extra weight year after year …If you have multiple “false starts” with losing weight throughout the year …If you have really high motivation at certain times and really low motivation at other times of the year …Then this episode is for YOU.It was inspired by my disagreement with another podcaster. They were discussing the best times of year to make changes and make progress in life. After hearing what they had to say, I just had to record this episode.There’s something that happens around this time of year every year. Before you know it, it sucks you in and leaves you frustrated, stuck, and discouraged. We are all a product of our patterns. You're about to discover what might be one of your patterns, see what might’ve been holding you back, and learn how to break free!COREY'S ANTI-DIET CLASS: http://www.AntiDietClass.comTWO FREE LESSONS: https://coreylittlecoaching.com/freeFREE MENOPAUSE DOWNLOAD: http://coreylittlecoaching.com/menopausePURCHASE RISE NUTRITION PRODUCTSWebsite: https://challenge2rise.com/Elite Omega-3 on Amazon: https://a.co/d/3dgilSGEssential Nutrients on Amazon: https://a.co/d/6rcULakElite Nutrients on Amazon: https://a.co/d/duQn1TD
Is your relationship with food messing you up? Do you even know if you have a healthy relationship with food? This episode will help you answer both of those questions. Being overweight really comes down to being out of balance. And what often lies beneath our imbalance is a distorted relationship with food. This can manifest differently for different people, but today I’ll explain 4 specific ways someone can have a poor relationship with food. I’ll provide specific questions to help you determine which of these four might be impacting you. Plus, we’ll cover . . . The “instruction manual” for our bodySpecific imbalances that lead to gaining weightHormone imbalances and gut issues The two relationships that are guaranteed to lead to weight loss and a better life!TWO FREE LESSONS: https://coreylittlecoaching.com/freeFREE MENOPAUSE DOWNLOAD: http://coreylittlecoaching.com/menopausePURCHASE RISE NUTRITION PRODUCTSWebsite: https://challenge2rise.com/Elite Omega-3 on Amazon: https://a.co/d/3dgilSGEssential Nutrients on Amazon: https://a.co/d/6rcULakElite Nutrients on Amazon: https://a.co/d/duQn1TD

If you want a clear cut, black-and-white answer about losing weight, then this episode is for you! Whenever you ask a trainer, coach, or expert a question, there should be two words you hear when they respond. These two words can be an indicator that they truly “know their stuff” and can be trusted. The less someone knows about a certain topic, the simpler it might seem. Unfortunately this can be the case when it comes to nutrition, exercise, and weight loss. It’s not quite as simple as “eat less and move more” or . . . If “eat less, move more” worked, then no one would be overweight and we’d have no health problems. “Just don’t eat that”“Just eat less sugar”“Just exercise more”“Just stop eating so much at night”“Just wake up earlier and workout before your day starts”“Just stop binging”“Just get it under control”But sadly, that’s the advice we might get or that we might tell ourselves sometimes. It’s a bit more complex than that, but it doesn’t have to be complicated. I’ll explain it all in this episode. Grab your cup of coffee and let’s do it! COREY'S ANTI-DIET CLASS: http://www.AntiDietClass.comTWO FREE LESSONS: https://coreylittlecoaching.com/freeFREE MENOPAUSE DOWNLOAD: http://coreylittlecoaching.com/menopausePURCHASE RISE NUTRITION PRODUCTSWebsite: https://challenge2rise.com/Elite Omega-3 on Amazon: https://a.co/d/3dgilSGEssential Nutrients on Amazon: https://a.co/d/6rcULakElite Nutrients on Amazon: https://a.co/d/duQn1TD
You may think you just need to be more disciplined. You may think it was just the worst time to start a new diet. You may think you just need a different plan that works for you. Those might be true to some degree. But if you have tried to lose weight and quit multiple times, then I’m willing to bet that there’s a sneaky reason you may not even be aware of. It can impact us when we’re trying to take action and “do good”, but it can also crush us once we actually get results. That might sound crazy, but it’s 100% true. Don’t believe me? Listen to today’s episode and I think you’ll see the reality of what’s behind our reasons to quit. Plus! I wrap things up with a specific 3 step process to help you avoid this in the future. COREY'S ANTI-DIET CLASS: http://www.AntiDietClass.comTWO FREE LESSONS: https://coreylittlecoaching.com/freeFREE MENOPAUSE DOWNLOAD: http://coreylittlecoaching.com/menopausePURCHASE RISE NUTRITION PRODUCTSWebsite: https://challenge2rise.com/Elite Omega-3 on Amazon: https://a.co/d/3dgilSGEssential Nutrients on Amazon: https://a.co/d/6rcULak

If you’ve tried and failed more times than you can count . . .If you struggle to lose weight and keep it off . . .If you sometimes feel like your own worst enemy and you have no idea why . . .Then you’re familiar with self sabotage. For some, it happens as soon as they start getting traction. For some, it happens when life gets busy or they get stressed. For some, it happens exactly when they least expect it - when they’ve made progress and they’re killing it! Regardless of when it happens for you or if you can see it coming or not, self sabotage is real. It’s basically us screwing ourselves up for no good reason. In today’s episode, I explain 3 reasons why we self sabotage and 3 ways to overcome it! Plus I talk about a skinny Chris Farley and overweight Brad Pitt. Just listen.
