There is one mindset required to break the diet/binge cycle and stop regaining weight after every failed diet. It's so effective because you'll never feel like a failure with your diet or weight loss program again. It's called "The Experimenter Mindset". How does the Experimenter Mindset work? Step 1: Define the healthy behaviour you want to do over the next few weeks and be specific. Example: "I want to do 2 x 30-minute home workouts at 12:45 pm on Tuesday and Thursday for the next 2 weeks". Step 2: Run the experiment for 2 weeks. Because you are being specific, you can clearly measure whether you were successful or not by tracking and gathering useful data. Use your phone, an app, a notebook, or a simple calendar on the fridge to track your experiment. Step 3: Review and iterate. Check-in after 2 weeks and measure how you've done. Figure out what went well and what didn't. If it didn't go well, figure out what to scale back and start a new experiment. If it did go well, figure out how to add a new level of challenge or try another experiment with food this time. It is okay to fail and test things out. By embracing an experimentation mindset, you know that all data is good data and you are constantly learning and improving. There is no failure. We can learn NOT TO DO the things that didn't work. If something didn't work, don't get down on yourself, rather ask yourself what tweaks can be made to increase your chances of success the next time. Continue experimenting until your new habits replace the old ones. Have you heard of this Experimenters Mindset and what healthy habit or behaviour would you like to experiment with?

Discover how the "Balloon Effect" can expand your day and make room for essential workouts! Let us all agree that we will never just “have” the time for exercise in our busy schedules. So how do we make the time for exercise in a packed diary? Think of time like a balloon. Consider this. How do you get air into a Balloon? You don’t expand the balloon to make room for the air. That’s not how it works. You blow air into the balloon and then the balloon expands. This is how time works as well. You don’t make room for something in your day and do it. Time expands under pressure. You add more things to your day and life and your time will expand. How is that possible? Once you add new things, you are forced to consider how you do all the other things. Once you add something new that is of great value to you, exercising for better health, you will not have the time for it but if you commit to it, it will force you to think deeply about all the other things you are doing. You will look at tasks, meetings, or engagements and think about how you could do this more efficiently. By adding something, like exercise, you force yourself to make decisions about how efficient and effective you can really be and by doing that, your time expands. You will stop spending too much time on things that don’t matter as much and engage with things that do matter. That is how time is like a Balloon. It expands under pressure. Take out your diary and add some exercise to your weekly schedule. Plan it like a meeting. It doesn’t have to be an hour. It can be 10 mins. Just put it in there. Now see how you can do other things more efficiently. Does that meeting have to be 60 mins or could it be 50 mins? Do you need to doom scroll social media for 13 mins or could you exercise instead? Could you order pre-made meals to save cooking time and go for a walk instead? Time expands when you add pressure. I never thought I’d say this on social media but “BE LIKE THE BALLOON”.
