369 // How to Lose Body Fat Without Reliving 2003 Diet Culture

In this episode, Nicole talks about why today’s body and weight-loss landscape feels eerily familiar to Millennial women who grew up in 90s and early-2000s diet culture; and why old beliefs about food, weight, discipline, and thinness can start feeling louder when everyone around you suddenly seems to be getting smaller.

Nicole breaks down how you can be “done with dieting” and still mentally follow the rules you learned from Weight Watchers, Atkins, SlimFast, The Biggest Loser, and the rest of the diet culture that raised us. She also explores the important difference between wanting to lose body fat and feeling like you need to become as small as possible to be successful, disciplined, or worthy.

Throughout this episode you’ll learn what sustainable, health-promoting fat loss can look like; including creating a manageable calorie deficit, protecting muscle and strength, eating enough to support your body, maintaining flexibility around food, and building habits that can survive your actual life. Nicole also introduces The Rewrite, her approach to identifying the old diet-culture rules still influencing your choices and replacing them with evidence-based nutrition skills so you can finally create fat loss you can confidently maintain.
