Let me know what barriers to weight loss have you had to overcome or do you need to overcome?

@PibrochPonder 2 дня назад

The biggest barrier was understanding that all I needed to do was focus on just getting one day right. Then just stacking that on to another day and then another and having things compound. Daily consistency and understanding how much of a key that is was the key.

@acousticiris3 2 дня назад

Injuries and aging, demanding jobs, but maybe worst of all my own impatience and overly high expectations of myself. 💙 Hope you get healed soon!

@juliedzyndra4661 2 дня назад

One of my biggest barriers is that everyone jumps in to “help”. Even if I don’t say I’m losing weight or doing a program, they notice just by the quiet change of what and how much I eat. So then comes all of the suggestions and advice and “what about this?” 🙃🙃 can be maddening, but all I do is smile and agree and then go do what I was going to do anyway 😅

@LindaC616 День назад

Ditto all of that for me!@@acousticiris3

@LindaC616 День назад

@juliedzyndra4661 I understand that, but I would rather have that than the person who knows the "old you" and offers you a piece of cake at a meeting. And when you say no, they ask you two or three more times. They asked everybody else just once. But they asked you three times. Tell me that that isn't indirectly some form of sabotage. All it does is make me Flex that will power muscle harder!

I had to learn to face myself in the mirror and realize that my reflection is a person too because I'm a person. I couldn't even look at myself in the mirror before, and I realize that I didn't even see myself as a person. I felt that I was less than. The weight of all the self hate came crashing down on me when I actually looked at myself in the mirror as a person was life-altering. I apologized to my reflection, took responsibility for my actions, and now make a point to look at myself daily. Now I show up for my reflection because she is me.

Carla, please make a video on all the stories you told yourself. I think it would be super helpful.

@Nazalac 2 дня назад

I need to overcome the hyper fixation I have on the number on the scales . If it doesn’t go the way I expected or “want “ I see it as a waste of my efforts so I sabotage myself by having a binge on sugars , the food that my body can not process the most hence the weight. Listening to your videos every morning helps get me on the right path for the day. Thank you 🙏🏿

@d.2110 2 дня назад

the body is MADE for sugars actually, it's the fuel of every cell in our bodies, just not the refined ones. FRUIT is the way to go. Eat lots of that and you will be satisfied. Don't believe myths that fruit makes you fat or anything. It doesn't. Juicy, fresh fruits.

@Cat28286 2 дня назад

The negative self talk has been the bane of my existence for 60 years, which all started from the opinions of others at a very young age. It has been the number one reason for never actually achieving a weight loss goal. I have lost and gained 100's of kgs in my lifetime, never once reaching a goal. Thanks for this video, I have to start kicking the shit out of that negative self talk and the guilt that it creates.🖤🖤🖤

@SolomonEmmanuel-k5u 20 часов назад

@annette-in-vegas 2 дня назад

This video was very helpful to listen to. I am working on changing my negative self-talk to more positive and to have more compassion for myself. I have fears of not being able to lose weight since I have had so many diet failures and I'm 68 years old. So, I'm actually old! I have more confidence than I have ever had though because of BS and what Ger explained about the Id, Ego, and Superego. It really helps. Thank you for all you do, Carla! You are doing a lot for people by sharing your struggles so we don't feel so odd or alone. 🤩

@SolomonEmmanuel-k5u 20 часов назад

@abbyK4932 День назад

It’s very helpful to hear someone put to words that it is possible to overcome the roadblocks and barriers we think will make it impossible for us to lose weight-the barriers that we then use to make excuses. Often verbalizing these struggles exposes them for the first time and makes it easier to overcome them. I have some of the same struggles you do-back pain, plantar fasciitis, mental health issues. So it is encouraging to see that someone else has already overcome that to lose weight. Just thinking that I may be the one to encourage someone else in their weight loss journey by overcoming my own obstacles is motivating for me

@mollys1584 2 дня назад

Hi Carla-I identify with this so much. I've battled my weight all my life. When I was young-I'm 68- Twiggy was all the rage and I was built nothing like her and was never going to achieve that. Your vlogs have been so helpful to me as a year ago I lost 20 lbs but have gained back 9 lbs. I've dropped 2 lbs and determined to lose the rest. Your vlogs have been keeping me honest and making me question why I continually do this....lose and regain. Thank you for your honesty. ❤❤❤

@GarLogan78 День назад

This might be a bit tangential, but I related so much to your first point in terms of coming out of the closet. Since I was a child people made fun of my voice, mannerisms, etc. and called me gay before I even knew what it was. I hated so much the idea of everyone being right or giving people who "Called it" the satisfaction, but it was also something I had to do to start really living my life.

@HalfofCarla День назад

Wow. Thank you so much for sharing with us. I love how so many of us have common humanity shared across different experiences 🖤

@marilynbara6330 2 дня назад

@anassorbestiak 2 дня назад

It always blows my mind that we are trying to use the same techniques used by AA and other addictions: if you smoke you can stop (not easy of course), but you cannot just stop eating!

@CitizenCardigan День назад

You don’t stop eating, you stop eating the wrong foods. AA doesn’t make you stop drinking everything, just alcohol. You can still drink water, coffee, juice etc etc etc

Your honesty ♥Listening to you is so fantastic inspirational and helps me to stay focused on my journey on losing 50 kg. I have lost 10 kg within the last 2 mounts. In the past when I tried, I failed because I stressed about it, and punished myself with food. Now I have more self love and patience and being honest with my self. I wish you a speedy recovery and hope you can dance again soon!💃

@maureengunn7952 2 дня назад

I finally started to confront my issues with food by embracing self love. To acknowledge that I’m worth it. To truly appreciate and care for myself and to not be to hard on myself. Thanks for your help!!❤

@JulieHepplewhite-n9h День назад

Thank you, just thank you ,you touch my very soul I have walked the same path, faced the same challenges and still do. Sending healing wishes for your injury.

@susanmiller7929 2 дня назад

Thank you for this video! Especially your number one. I’ve always believed there had to be other people who felt the way I did. 💜 This “part” of me would be so triggered by a compliment from the same people always trying to “fix” me or by someone that wanted credit for what would’ve been my hard work. It took me a very long time to accept but that has been my biggest trigger and barrier. Accepting that the feelings of resentment and even anger are okay to acknowledge but then releasing them and admitting they are ultimately an excuse the ID would just love for me to accept and eat the cake…all of it 😅, it’s been the most freeing part of the journey. I’ll get there. Thanks again Carla! I really enjoyed the video and was nodding throughout the entire time! 🥰😉💜🖤⭐️

@RachelBehrends 20 часов назад

🤍🤍🤍I’m always so encouraged by your openness and self compassion. I had to overcome the idea that taking time to invest in my health meant taking time from the people for whom I am a caregiver. Now I find ways to prioritize time for my walk, record my meals, make healthy meals for myself, and connect with my emotions so they don’t control me (always trying to be better at this!😂).

@anassorbestiak День назад

since I started dismantling all the negative self talk, and becoming more confident, people in my family or even friends started saying that I seem arrogant and too assertive now, that I've changed in a way I don't like... and I'm like girl did you actually preferred when I was feeling miserable everyday??

@LindaC616 День назад

I used to have the worst social anxiety (I'm old, we didn't have a name for it). The first time I lost a significant amount of weight, I acquired a backbone. To this day, I still have trouble negotiating between doormat and Mack truck😅. Keep being you and keep in mind that maybe some of those people don't like the assertive new you, because it makes things less convenient for them.

@Equinox1.5 2 дня назад

Very profound and helpful video. I identified with all three in one way or another. Even knowing that someone else has had similar thoughts universalises the experience and tells me that these ways of thinking are not unique to me. When my negative self-talk and excuses did feel mine alone, they felt impossible to overcome, but realising that others are formulating similar excuses, too, and have dealt with and overcome them, makes it easier for me to see those voices and excuses for the fear-based thought-forms they are and to start dealing with them (which includes gently ignoring them when necessary), if that makes sense? Many thanks, Carla 💜🩶🖤

@tinacatswhiskers 39 минут назад

Morning Carla, No3 particularly resonated with me,but those cruel words and negative self talk didn’t just come from the voice in my head,but out of the mouth of my own Dad!. I’m a rocker too and currently in the ‘middle’ of my weight loss journey, looking for inspiration and found it in you 😊. I’ve lost 2 1/2 stone and I have about 3 1/2 to go. Cant wait to wear all those love clothes again-we have very similar style. Thankyou ❤

@kellyflanagan7632 2 дня назад

Thank you for another incredibly helpful video. I was nodding in agreement as i watch just now. Negative self talk has done more harm than anything else, not just with my weight and food addiction but in every area. Im getter faster to paying attention when I do this and sometimes even out loud saying "thats not helpful go away!" For me first recognizing what I'm saying to myself and instantly responding , cutting it off has helped a great deal. Its taken a lifetime to do this for myself and somedays its hard. I just keep pushing forward. ❤

@carolynstapp4980 2 дня назад

💖💗❤️ Thank you for sharing today. I would be interested in a video on some of the negative intrusive self-talk that you overcame. One of the biggest barriers has been recognizing the value of small changes at a time, because when consistently done, they are the building blocks of lasting change. The difficulty is accepting that small meaningful changes have a delay in results. It takes time and consistency, building them into my daily systems.

@shraddhas1005 2 дня назад

I recently read that it's a adhd characteristic. My mother struggled with it a lot with me in my teenage years. Say I was going to do the dishes. And if my mom stopped me to tell me "hey can you do the dishes?" in that moment, then I didn't do it anymore.Same thing happens in my head with weightloss. Because I know that everybody and their mother wants me to lose weight..

@lollypop3718 2 дня назад

My negative self talk has kept me from doing so many things... ( not just weight loss, but many other things as well, ever since I was a kid). Your advice on how to deal with that was very spot-on. Thank you! ( also, your skin looked especially glowy and soft in this video!)💖💖💖💄💄💄

@shannonflanigan6408 16 часов назад

Great video Carla! The first one is my toughest barrier to overcome. I feel very triggered when someone compliments me on my weight loss... particularly if said someone gave me hell about being overweight in the past. Ugh it makes me want to pack it in and eat all around me. But thanks to your inspiration and the Body Slims program it's getting easier to stay on the weight loss journey. Thanks for all you do Carla! 🖤🖤🖤

@chosen1504 18 часов назад

🤗💕yes showing up for myself! And now I’m facing body shame in my social circle after gaining back 15 lbs. 😢 Bit learning my lesson to love myself and my boundaries. 🥰

@rrooster8218 21 час назад

I've never heard anyone talk about your first point. I've struggled with the idea that if I lose weight, my abusive dad would "win", would be able to say he was right. I'll try to look at it as ultimately I WIN. I win for me and have the victory for me and he lost me. ♥️♥️

@marilynbara6330 2 дня назад

Oh gosh … I felt compelled to comment before getting to the end of the video so I just have to say, your hair looks great! Your fresh, natural, not overdone look is a wonderful element of your talks. Stay fresh, natural and inspired!

Thanks, Carla. My thought is that you're an angel for sharing this 😇

@imma_cat День назад

Carla! I had the same issue with self hate after an experience with a psycho path in high school. He brain washed me and made me believe crazy things were true. When a friend helped me see that he was messing with me I spiraled. My mind used to tell me how stupid I was every day. Then I discovered through meditation that I could sit and listen to the voice. The voice was not me! So I used to listen and talk back, “oh yes. Please go on. Tell me how stupid I am!” I would smile and wait for the voice to respond. It shut up for good after that. ❤😊

@Rockrgrl4 День назад

I have recognized that I have a huge mental block of some sort but I have struggled to figure out what it is. Maybe some of it is the reason I want/need to lose weight is because we are wanting to start a family, and I must lose weight to do that. I wonder if I’m just not ready yet so I can’t commit to the weight loss. It’s so hard because it’s something that weighs on me even more than me failing myself. I feel like I’m failing my partner and future family too.

@HalfofCarla День назад

Thank you so much for sharing. I am no expert nor do I know your experience, but perhaps a sense of pressure or fear of failure is part of your barrier? Xxx

@mockingbirdnightingale7169 4 часа назад

Wow... I've never heard anyone say that before about the shitty stories but I relate SO MUCH to this. For many years, I explained my obesity because I, like my father, have: a low body temperature, a very slow respiratory rate, and an abnormally slow heart rate (my resting heart rate is 39 bpm). Well as it turns out, when I got a Garmin watch, I found out that my respiratory rate is normal, my heart rate is only slow when I'm not freaking DOING ANYTHING (but it maxes out at 194 bpm so maybe just do something??), and my body temperature is normal. In other words I'm normal, and when I'm active, I burn 2000 calories/day. Just like everyone else lmao. I had to learn that I'm NOT THAT SPECIAL. And that "exceptional" mindset was holding me back SO BADLY.

@Yvonneboni 2 дня назад

I hope you can reply to this. I’ve left messages but no reply. Thanks for sharing your experience. I am curious about the program that helped you. I want to know the amount of calories that they advise you to eat is it sustainable? Realistic for people that want this to be a life long change. I have seen ppl lose weight and certain programs work for everyone is different. So my main question is, will i have to starve and feel miserable to lose weight on This program? How is it different from optavia, weight watchers, low calorie diets etc. please give me some answers I’m looking for something that can be good for me.

@ProgressInTransformation 2 дня назад

Hi there 👋- Carla used ‘Body Slims’ weight loss program. She has lots of videos about her experience with it. She also does not discuss the calorie level that Body Slims prescribed for her as it is a very individualized calculation. (Height, age, current weight, gender, physical fitness level etc all contribute to this calculation) For myself, I do keto and Intermittent Fasting. It took me about 2 weeks to adjust to the OMAD (one meal a day) eating schedule but I only eat 5 meals a week and very rarely feel any hunger. I take electrolytes daily and supplements on my feast days. I do 30 minutes of indoor cardio daily. This works for me. I’ve just reached the -100lbs loss milestone 🤩. It’s taken a solid year to accomplish, but it’s AMAZING! Good luck on your WLJ. ❤❤❤

@LindaC616 День назад

I am in the US, so I don't have access to the program. However, I have listened to the guy who started the program. There is a series of three videos available on RU-vid about Slimming World. And when you're done with those, there are plenty of videos that discuss what you can eat on the first few weeks, etcetera. I have forgotten exactly what it was about the that made it distinctive, but I don't think you have to be starving all day long.
