In this episode, Amy discusses how diets, fitness challenges and many weight loss programs we sign up for trigger ALL or NOTHING thinking, which is a form of artificial scarcity.  This is yet another reason why these programs have such a high failure rate.

Instead of pursuing dramatic, short-term results, Amy reviews why it's so important to focus on the long game and see our choices on a continuum so life doesn’t get in the way, and change is sustainable and becomes the way you live.  We do this by:

  1. Focusing on building habits
  2. Listening to our body
  3. Managing our mind
