Welcome to the Ask a Nutritionist podcast, brought to you by Nutritional Weight and Wellness.

We are thrilled to have you join us today as we discuss the connection between what you eat and how you feel,

and share practical real-life solutions for healthier living through balanced nutrition.

Now let's get started.

Good morning and welcome to Dishing Up Nutrition's

new midweek segment called Ask a Nutritionist. On today's show, we will be answering a

nutrition question we received from one of our Dishing Up Nutrition listeners. So this particular

listener wrote, I have finally lost the 30 pounds I have struggled with so long to lose.

How do I retrain my brain for maintenance? And how do I change how I eat daily? This has been a part of my

problem for the many times I have lost weight. I think this is an excellent question. I loved this

question. This is why we picked it out. And first of all, I wanted to just say congratulations on that

weight loss. 30 pounds is amazing. So I hope that you're able to recognize that success for yourself. And I really hope that you're so

proud of yourself and the efforts that you've put into losing that weight. Second of all, I want to

just bring this back to now all the other listeners or people who may be watching this video

and just pose that question, does that ring true for you? Or does that question resonate

for you? Have you lost weight in the past? Once, twice, 10 times, 20 times have you lost that

weight in the past only to struggle with maintaining that weight loss or to struggle with that

mindset and those thoughts that are

required to just continue having that success long term. I'm willing to bet that this is hitting

home for a lot of listeners and for a lot of you who may be watching this video, which again

makes it a really great question to discuss. And I hope if this is resonating for you,

that it just shows you that you're not alone and that there's many people in the same boat
