If I had a penny for all the times when someone's told me that, when it comes to making nutrition changes and adding more exercise into their lives, they need to go all in or they won't do it at all, I'd be a millionaire by now. Then a few weeks later, they fall off the wagon, which is accompanied by guilt, self-loathing, and the feeling of just being incapable of change.

There's a simple reason why this happens, and it's got nothing to do with us being unable to change or lacking in willpower. And that's exactly what we're going to be talking about today in this week's podcast.

What We Cover:

- How to start thinking smaller and why 95% of all diets fail

- The influence of culture on how we are trying to make nutrition and fitness changes

- How our brain perceive changes, and why it prefers habits

- Why you need to be adding food instead of cutting it out

- The limits of willpower and the decision-making fatigue

- How to ease ourselves into new habits and go for small, incremental changes

If you're currently off the wagon, and thinking about getting on it, but you're put off by all the work involved, or if you tend to be really hard on yourself and expect perfection, then it might be worth trying this approach, and trying to go for something a bit smaller, rather than having to necessarily go all in all the time.
