The Healthification Podcast

A few of years ago I published my F.A.T. E.L.I.M.I.N.A.T.I.O.N. Standards. The standards I live by. The NON-negotiable rules that make getting and keeping your best fit, healthy, body simple and sustainable. Although those standards are all still super relevant and hugely effective – as I look back on them – they do weigh heavily on the food and exercise side of body gain. Food and ... READ MORE

“Wow hon, you’re looking really tired today. Didn’t really get the chance to do your hair did you? Or make up. Those circles under your eyes – nothing that a little bit of make up (and perhaps a genius make-up artist) can’t fix though. And are those gym tights looking just a little bit tighter around your thighs?” “Actually, you’re looking so rough – perhaps you should ...

The only thing worse than eating rubbish and not losing weight is believing you’re eating healthy and still not losing weight!  Sneaky little unsatisfying, low value, high caloric density snacks that claim to be healthy are abundant… they’ll flaunt their flashy wrappers at you temptingly. The wrapper is your first hint. Generally if it is healthy, it doesn’t need to tell you it’s healthy!   In this ... READ MORE

One of the top barriers I hear from people struggling to stick to the eating and exercising they know will let them achieve their ideal body is: A lack of motivation The motivation myth is that you either have it or you don’t. That if something is important enough to you, you’ll be and stay motivated. That is rubbish. Like any quality, motivation takes ... READ MORE

If you’re anything like me the main thing that stops you from taking action is NOT a lack of ideas. It’s not that you have no idea what to do. It’s more that you have too many ideas what to do. Even that there are so many ideas… such a multitude of conflicting advice… that it’s really tempting to try a little bit of this approach, mixed with ... READ MORE

Do you know the difference between failing and failure? Failing is finding out what doesn’t work. Failure is giving up. I LOVE that. I heard the best story about a online dating start up recently. Now 10 years ago this site was set up as a way for singles to view videos of other singles and make a connection. It was a ... READ MORE

Yesterday as a client disdainfully patted his belly he informed me he had a burger for dinner last night. I left the bun though. And I just ate 3 chips. Well maybe 6 chips. My gut reaction when I hear such things is not: “Well you must not be too distraught at having that belly then if you’re going to be ordering a burger and chips!” It’s more ... READ MORE
