This is episode number 498.

Welcome to Thinner Peace and Menopause and Beyond.

This is Dr. Deb Butler, Master Life and Weight Coach, and as always, your coach coach if you're a woman and you're smart

and you're successful and you've been struggling with weight your whole life and now menopause is

making it harder than ever and you are ready to make this the last time you ever have to go on a diet again, then this

podcast is for you. Stay tuned. Well, hello, all my dear friends, and welcome. If you're

listening to me, welcome. If you're watching me on YouTube, welcome. And today I want to talk about, first of all,

that I've done 498 episodes. It's like I'm getting close to 500 and I'm going to have to have a

huge celebration for 500 episodes. But today for 498, I wanted to talk to you about something that will help you immediately.

And that's what I'm here to do is to try to help you figure out what's going on in your mind.

Because listen, it's not what you're eating that's causing the problems.

It's what you're thinking when you eat.

And so what I've done is I've created what I call

the model. And the model, of course, I learned from my mentor, Brooke Castillo. She actually

created it. And then I created my own version of it. And that's what I teach. But I got so excited when I learned it

from her because it gave me so much freedom because I realize how much power my mind has

if I know what's going on in there. I used to think that it was more important to know what I was

eating than to know what I was thinking.

And after working with her and working with thousands of clients, I have learned that if you

know what you're thinking and you can be aware of it, you can change anything, especially when

it comes to the scale and it comes to your body.
