0:00.0	Welcome to the Widowed Mom podcast, episode 53, before you try to lose weight again.
0:10.2	Welcome to the Widowed Mom podcast, the only podcast that offers a proven process to help you work through your grief to grow, evolve, and create a future you can truly look forward to.
0:24.2	Here's your host, Master Certified Life Coach, Grief Expert, Widow, and Mom, Krista St. Germain.
0:32.7	Hey there, welcome to another episode of the podcast.
0:36.5	We're going to talk about weight loss today.
0:39.8	Actually, we're going to talk about some things for you to think about as a widow before you try
0:46.3	to lose weight again. So you might not know this, but in addition to being a life coach, I'm also a
0:51.4	certified weight coach. And I've had my own significant struggles

1:24.9	with ourselves and with our bodies. And since nearly everyone in that
1:29.3	group wanted or wants to lose weight, I know that many of you do too. And we can do that and I can help
1:36.9	you. But before we do that, we need to get our minds right. And that's what I want to talk to you about
1:43.8	today because weight loss is not the answer
1:48.0	you think it is by itself.
1:50.5	It doesn't actually make us feel better.
1:53.4	So I'm going to talk to you today about three things that I want you to consider before
1:58.9	you try to lose weight again.
2:01.8	Before I do that, though, I want to read a podcast review.
