Let's Run Podcast With Pahla B Fitness

When you’re plagued with indecision because you fear making a mistake, there’s one clear path forward: make mistakes anyway. This MVP episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast will show you how and why making mistakes is the fastest and best way to get your goal.It can feel pretty overwhelming, for those of you who are new to the podcast, to try and sort through two hundred and ninety-one older episodes. So, occasionally, I’ll be sharing some of the most valuable older episodes, with an introduction like this one, which sets you up for why the message is still relevant and helpful today.This episode, about making mistakes, has two key takeaways:-First, that perfectionism slows you down-And second, that being willing to make mistakes will take you everywhere you want to goAnd the best evidence for this argument can be had just by listening to this three-and-a-half year old podcast! You can hear how far I’ve come, and how much clearer my message is, and how much I’ve changed and grown as a podcaster, all because I w

Whether you think you already know how to lose weight, or think you don’t, I have a powerful mindset shift to share in this episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast that will teach you everything you need to know about losing weight!On the one hand, if you’re telling yourself that you already know how to lose weight, it sounds like a good thing, right? Like, you know about how menopause has changed weight loss, and you understand the science of how eating in a slight caloric deficit over time is the way your body releases weight, and you know the five tasks to do every day. This is all really good stuff!But, also… here you are, getting the five tasks done, but not actually losing any weight.And on the other hand, if you’re telling yourself that you don’t know how to lose weight, you’re probably feeling a lot of confusion or overwhelm or doubt. And you might be asking a lot of questions without really implementing any of the answers, because you sort of think that that must not be it.So… you’re not really losing w

Everybody wants weight loss to be easy, right? But also, you value hard work and want to be proud of your efforts. On this episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, we’re exploring how to get the best of both worlds while you’re losing weight.On the one hand, you definitely want things to feel easy. Easy is pleasurable, it’s what your brain craves, and it requires virtually nothing from you. So nice, right?On the other hand, though, you’ve been socialized to value hard work, and truly believe that nothing good comes without it. Weight loss actually has to be hard to be worthwhile, doesn’t it?Navigating these opposing ideals is tough, and can stop your weight loss in its tracks.So, on this week’s episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, we’re finding the middle ground, evaluating the thoughts we have about easy weight loss and hard work, and managing our mindset to get where we want to go.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: -Why you don’t REALLY want weight loss to be easy-Why you don’t REALLY want to work hard, either-A better

Depending on how much weight you want to lose, you might need to adjust your calories while on your weight loss journey. On this episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, I’m teaching you when, why, and how to make those adjustments.My rule of thumb is that there are two times during weight loss when you might want or need to adjust your calories – at the beginning of your journey when you’re learning to be consistent, and after you’ve lost about 40 pounds (or your weight loss has stopped for more than four weeks).Not everybody needs to make adjustments, but if you do, here are some key points to keep in mind:-First and foremost, it’s OKAY to adjust your calories. You are an experiment of one, and you can do anything.-Be sure to take your time adjusting, and spend at least a month gathering data before you make changes.-Know that the data you’re gathering ISN’T from the scale, it’s from your body’s signals and what your brain offers you in your journal. (This blows your mind, doesn’t it?)-And finally, make your a

Daily journaling is the most useful tool in your weight loss toolkit. And on this week’s episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, I’m sharing my best tips with you, so you can feel like a journaling pro and get the most out of it.Each day with The 5-0 Method, we do five tasks that make you say, “Oh! I had no idea weight loss at my age could be so simple.” And the number one task is to manage your mindset, by finding your thoughts and deciding if they’re helpful.So many women are on board with four of the five tasks – because water, sleep, eating, and exercise seem more “weight lossy” than journaling, don’t they? But in my experience, it’s the mindset work that makes the difference between long term success versus those who struggle or give up.Each day with The 5-0 Method, we do five tasks that make you say, “Oh! I had no idea weight loss at my age could be so simple.” And the number one task is to manage your mindset, by finding your thoughts and deciding if they’re helpful.So many women are on board with four o

You have questions about weight loss over 50, and on this week’s episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, I’ve got the answers!I’ve been studying weight loss for over ten years and really paying attention to the questions you have – especially when you first get started on your journey. It feels difficult to navigate all your choices, and unbelievable that others have had success with such a counterintuitive plan.You want to get everything right, so you can stop gaining this menopausal weight and start losing. But it’s confusing to figure out what to do or where to go for credible information.The wonderful truth of it all is that even the most complex questions have a simple answer.On today’s empowering episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, we’re exploring calorie apps, chatting about whether or not to eat junk food, and deciding what to count as water, with science-based answers and the mindset shifts that will help you move forward with confidence.

Weighing yourself can feel calm and easy. In this episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, I’m sharing the simple process that will change your relationship with the scale.You’re on board with the idea of how mindset work or journaling *might* be helpful for losing weight. But weighing yourself? It’s hard, it feels terrible, and if you could just throw away your scale, you definitely would.I hear from clients all the time that they hate to weigh themselves because the daily fluctuations drive them crazy, or they feel like the numbers just mess with their heads. You feel really good about your eating and exercising and water and sleep, but then you get on the scale and your weight is up, or it’s still the same, and all of a sudden it’s like everything you’ve been doing is all for nothing.If this is you, you’re in the right place. Today, we’re taking a deep dive into the topic of WEIGHING YOURSELF, and I’m sharing exactly how to make peace with the scale once and for all.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: - WHY weighing your

The idea of loving your menopausal body sounds so nice. But what are the actual steps? How do you DO that? I’ve got the scoop in this week’s episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast!Loving your menopausal body is a feeling that’s available to you – even if right now you think you hate your body, or it’s betrayed you, or you just don’t understand it anymore. You CAN love your body, and I highly encourage you to do so.When menopause came knocking at my door, it changed everything I thought I knew about myself. But instead of getting stuck in the anger, frustration, and betrayal of those changes, I decided to change my MIND. Join me today as I share the story of my menopause (and grief, and aging) journey, and what it’s meant to my relationship with my body.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: - How I knew I WASN’T loving myself (I honestly hadn’t realized I wasn’t)- How MENOPAUSE wasn’t really the problem (of course it was my thoughts!) - Why it wasn’t about my WEIGHT or what I can DO, either- The EXACT STEPS I’ve taken to feel

Your body will only go where your brain goes first. Which means that successful weight loss begins with the belief that you can lose weight.On a scale of one to ten, how much do you currently believe that you can get to your goal weight? Zero? This could be what’s stopping you from getting your goal.In this week’s short, sweet and inspirational episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, we’re diving into the concept of BELIEF and why it’s so important in reaching your goal. I’m sharing personal stories of how I overcame my own lack of belief and how you can borrow belief from outside of you, too.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: - Why belief is the “secret sauce” to getting your goal- How to cultivate belief in yourself- Where you can get belief (for free!)

Losing weight with The 5-0 Method means you’re focused on eating the right number of calories every day – because staying in a slight caloric deficit over time is the only scientifically proven way to shed pounds. But WHAT should you eat? Do you need to go low carb, or eat in an 8-hour window, or find low calorie substitutes for your favorite foods?No, no, and no. In fact, your best bet is to eat the foods you already love, in portion sizes to fit your weight loss calorie target.But how can that be? Don’t you have to eat healthy for your health? And hasn’t that whole “calories in, calories out” myth been debunked?Yes and yes.

Most of us think getting to our goal will be just a straight line to success, and when things get tough, we just give up. But that doesn’t have to be your story. When you know what to expect along the way, even the bumpy path to your goal is navigable. And the truth of it is, the road to your goal looks like… a checkmark!On this week’s episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, I’m drawing you the map and pointing out all the milestones you can expect, so you can get YOUR goal, no matter what it is.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: - Why success is NEVER linear- How to THINK about your progress, and- What to DO when the road gets toughIf you’re ready to get your goal, this episode is for you!

Slow weight loss is frustrating, isn’t it? Even when you’re faithfully putting in the work with The 5-0 Method, you might still be losing weight slower than you want to, and you’re just so… over it.But what if slow weight loss isn’t the problem that you think it is? What if there’s a simpler answer than just trying to work harder?Because there is: in this week’s episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, I’m covering the science of how fast or slow you can reasonably expect to lose weight at our age (and why), plus the mindset shift you can access TODAY to get the scale moving faster. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: - Why SLOW weight loss isn’t really a problem- The REAL issue that’s slowing you down, and- The ONE EASY TIP that can get the scale moving fasterNo matter how slow it’s going, my friend, you *can* lose all the weight you want and keep it off forever when you’re working on your mindset like we do here on the Get Your GOAL podcast!

If you know me from YouTube, you’ve likely noticed that I’m not posting exercise videos like I used to, and maybe you’ve questioned why I’m not making workouts anymore. Here’s why: they’re not helping you lose weight.WHAT? Since when?Literally, since always – and even though I’ve shared with you many times over the years that you can lose weight without exercising at all, it’s still one of the toughest aspects of weight loss to wrap your brain around.

People with self discipline don’t seem to have any trouble losing weight, do they? They get up early to workout, they never have trouble with snacking, they drink their water, and get plenty of sleep every night. You know that if you had that kind of self discipline, you’d be losing weight easily, too – but you’re struggling with having *any* self discipline right now. How in the world can you get MORE?You can (and I’ll tell you how). But also… you might not even need self discipline AT ALL.Join me on this week’s episode of the Get Your GOAL podcast, where I’m clapping back at the notion of needing more self discipline and offering up a kinder, gentler way to lose weight instead.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:What self discipline ISWhat self discipline and is NOT, andWhy self discipline could actually be HOLDING YOU BACK from achieving your weight loss goalsMy friend, if there’s one thing to take away from this episode it’s this: you have the ability, the tools, and the power to make self discipline work for YOU, no
