Descripción

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!

episode You Don't Have to Lose Weight Alone Anymore: Why Hiding It Is Holding You Back. artwork

You Don't Have to Lose Weight Alone Anymore: Why Hiding It Is Holding You Back.

You've read the articles. You've downloaded the apps. You've tried the diets. At this point you could probably teach a class on how to lose weight. And yet here you are, still trying to figure out why it isn't working. Today I want to talk about the one thing that changed everything for me, and it's the one thing nobody is selling you, because you can't put it in an app and you can't print it on the cover of a magazine. In this episode I'm getting into why a diet built for somebody else was never going to fit your actual life, why doing this all alone and in secret is the hardest possible way to do it, and how the fear of messing up in front of people is the very thing that keeps you stuck. I'm sharing the story of how I lost 50 pounds without telling a single soul it was even my goal, why that made everything so much harder, and what finally changes when you stop white-knuckling it by yourself and let the right people in. I'm running a free Summer Weight Loss Challenge starting Monday, June 8th and it is built around everything I've been talking about on the podcast. Go to sascy.com/challenge [www.sascy.com/challenge] to get on the list so you don't miss a thing. And if you're hearing this after the challenge has already happened, go to that link anyway because there will always be something there for you.

episode Why Diets Have Never Worked for You (And What Needs to Change) artwork

Why Diets Have Never Worked for You (And What Needs to Change)

Over the last few weeks I've been talking about why you already know what to do but can't do it, why you quit every diet by week two, why you've stopped believing it's possible, and how finding movement I love was the real turning point in my weight loss. Today I'm tying all of that together. Because it all points to one thing. And once you see it, you can't unsee it. In this episode I'm getting into why the way we've been taught to think about weight loss is completely backwards, why starting with calorie counting and restriction and intermittent fasting and saving up your points for the weekend is the reason nothing has stuck, and what actually needs to change if you want to lose weight in a way that you can keep up for the rest of your life. I'm running a free Summer Weight Loss Challenge starting the week of June 2nd and you will have direct access to me during the challenge. I've had hundreds of women go through my free challenges over the years and I want you to be one of them.

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! Go to sascy.com/challenge [www.sascy.com/challenge] to get on the waitlist so you don't miss a thing. It's going to be SO good.

episode Why You Fall Off Every Diet By Week 2 artwork

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.
