Allowing myself to eat “bad food” whenever I want has been a game changer. It has made me crave those foods way less and I make healthier choices in general because I want to.
As always Cori. you are giving us the no BS approach and ' calling us' to examine our habits. I enjoy these short , information packed vids with the mini cut aways to you reflecting the emotions you are speaking of. Appreciate you taking the time to post , keeping it real and encouraging us on our journey to be a better version of ourselves. May I say too the gorgeous red hair is stunning- you're really rockin' it!
My new biggest obstacle is my brain telling me I need to eat extra because i'm getting too thin. Yesterday evening that reaction triggered, and I ended up eating a bunch of nuts before bedtime to 'compensate' for the great job I was doing during the day. And I wasnt even feeling hungry. I'm 48, 5'4, and my weight fluctuates between 135 and 140 lbs. I want to lose 2-3 lbs, and keep it there without my brain telling me I need extra calories to compensate for the loss. I wonder if it's just me or anyone else is experiencing this.
Yesssss🎉 I do the same thing as I’ve been intermittent fasting but lately I’ve been listening to my voice say you need more or you aren’t gonna be healthy? Like I was doing just fine till I bought those nuts lol
One of the best on here for dieting & training I’ve experienced all of the above lost a lot of weight fast by cutting out sugar & doing 30 minutes a day on an exercise bike ended up having a break out & eating loads of crap & putting a lot back on but have got back on track & having a few treats here & there
Nice glimpse of archery! I so enjoy archery and am working training to regain national level competitive status even in Master's and ages 70+ (I'll be 70 for the next national tournament I am training for - last one 2017 and I have not actively competed since pre-pandemic due to restrictive closure and injury. Losing weight as directed for osteoarthritic knee (I wear a specific knee brace when doing my archery and when exercising). Hit a weight plateau with about 15 more pounds to lose, but am taking your fine advice here. Thanks for these inspirational videos!
Love this! Esp the complementary goals and skills-based focus, which seems to really make a world of difference in progress and motivation to keep going full steam ahead. Great content, as always!
I’ve been in a cal deficit with a pretty intense weightlifting program for over 3 months now. The results have been great but definitely just came upon a platue and just being mentally drained from all the tracking. Going into maintenance for a reset. Having some junk and naps for a week
Thanks for sharing. This is super related to my experience. After suffered from bloating and upset stomach too often, I finally was convinced that my digestive system are not happy with pure healthy and "100% whole grain" diet...
You look amazing! Better than ever!! Way cute hair! Plus of course always helpful, useful content presented in an intelligent but approachable way! Thanks from southwestern Pennsylvania!
I dealt with the second mistake, trying to eat 30 different vegetables per week and focusing on plant based food. Still recovering from a totally messed up GI…
Great video. Your passion is contagious...I do less calories during the week, and do a bit extra on the weekend, I also add cocoa to my breakfast oatmeal/protein powder so I start the day on a happy yummy note🎶😂
Ok….I stopped at the two minute mark because I just want to say….. THAT’S ME!!!! But in this latest battle in the war on my fattness (yes, I know that’s not really a word) I have adopted the idea of not letting a bad diet day or even a week of less than diet perfection, derail the whole process. Cori has been talking about this for years in one video or another. It’s the second best piece of advice I’ve gotten in the last 6 years. Which is the timeframe of my getting fat. So, thank you, girl. I hopped on the scale on June 15th and it said I weighed 0. That, I decided, was enough. Three months late I’m down 30 pounds. I don’t beat myself up over the occasional pizza/ice cream/lasagna/pretzel breakdown. I just reengage the next day. And I track. Calories and macros. I shoot for 1500 calories, 35% protein and less than 60g of carbs. This way if I go long on calories or carbs I’m still in a good spot for the day. I’ve taken the marathon approach rather than the 400 approach. I’d call it slow motion dieting fartlek. The occasional sprint in a long workout.
Hi, I was wondering if you could explain more about maintenance. I dont know what to aim for or expect. Is there a range for maintenance calories? I am trying to be within 100 of my daily maintenance, but break even over a week. I think its working but how long should i wait to tell if its working or not? More than a couple pounds of weight gain, or anything outside my normal range of fluctuations? 😅
