Biking Wellness

I Was in the Best Shape of My Life and Still Overweight. Here's What Finally Changed.

I've talked about the moment I stood in front of the mirror and decided to lose weight for the last time. But I've been thinking about it, and that wasn't actually when everything changed. The real moment happened a couple of years before that and it had nothing to do with food or dieting or calories. In this episode I'm sharing the story of how my husband buying me a bike for our anniversary was the actual turning point in my weight loss journey, why falling in love with movement completely changed the way I thought about my body, and why I was probably in the best shape of my life while still being overweight. I'm also talking about why this isn't about biking and how finding YOUR thing, whatever that is, might be the piece that changes everything for you too. I'm running a free challenge starting the week of June 2nd. Go to sascy.com/challenge [www.sascy.com/challenge] to get on the waitlist so you don't miss a thing!

I Stopped Believing I Could Lose Weight. Here's What Changed.

If you've tried to lose weight so many times that you've quietly decided you're just not the kind of person who can do it, this episode is for you. I'm sharing what it was like to grow up thinking I just loved food too much, the PowerBar and Powerade lunches in college to look good in a dress, the years of calorie counting and never having enough points, and how I eventually just stopped getting my hopes up. And I'm talking about what actually made me believe again, because it had nothing to do with finding the right diet. If you don't believe it's possible for you yet, that's okay. I'll believe it for you until you're ready to believe it for yourself. Also, I'm working on a brand new challenge for the lead up to summer starting the week of June 2nd!

Why You Fall Off Every Diet By Week 2

If you have ever started a diet on a Monday, been SO excited about it, kept it up for a week or maybe two, and then completely fallen off and spent the next few months feeling guilty about it before trying again, this episode is for you. I'm sharing what this cycle looked like for me for years, including my very exciting first round of Weight Watchers with the little wallet and the McDonald's points booklet, the hand-me-down Nutrisystem food that tasted like cardboard, and the pattern of only being able to lose weight over the summer when I wasn't working. And I'm talking about why this keeps happening and why it has absolutely nothing to do with your willpower or motivation. If you're tired of starting over, I am working on a brand new challenge for the lead up to summer that I am really excited about.

You Already Know What to Do. So Why Aren't You Doing It?

You know what to eat. You know you should be moving your body. You've read the books, you've done the calorie counting, you could probably give someone else advice on how to lose weight. And you still can't make it work for yourself. In this episode I'm getting really honest about the gap between knowing what to do and actually doing it. I'm sharing what it used to look like for me standing in front of the pantry after a long day shoveling in Goldfish and pretzels and Doritos knowing it wasn't helping but not being able to stop. And I'm talking about what I actually needed to bridge that gap, because it wasn't more information. If you've ever thought "I know what I should be doing, I just can't make myself do it," this one is for you. I'm working on a new challenge for this summer and I'm building a waitlist right now.

Not Every Week Is Going to Look the Same (And That's How You Actually Lose Weight)

Last week I didn't do a single formal workout. I was exhausted from work, not sleeping well, and barely had the energy to get through the day. But I spent a full day spreading mulch, coached my son's baseball team, and walked the dog a few times. When I looked back I realized it was one of my biggest movement weeks in a while. I just didn't see it because none of it felt like a "real" workout. This week I'm on vacation with more energy and more time, so I made a simple movement plan and posted it on Instagram for accountability. Two completely different weeks. Both count. Both are moving me toward summer feeling good in my body. In this episode I'm talking about why sustainable weight loss means knowing how to adjust instead of following a perfect plan, why movement matters but NOT because of the calories you burn, and why I'm being honest about the difference between "all movement counts" and avoiding the things you know you need to do. If you've been beating yourself up because your weeks aren't perfect, you need to hear this. Come follow me on Instagram and YouTube @sascycycling. I just wrapped up a 14 day challenge sharing everything I stopped doing to lose 50 pounds and I've got more fun stuff coming. Send me a DM and say hi!
