Hello, welcome to the Lean of Plants podcast. My name is Chelsea and if you are struggling to lose weight on a plant-based diet, then this podcast is for you. While there are thousands of books, podcasts and resources about the benefits of a plant-based diet, the reality is that being vegan does not

guarantee losing weight. If you are feeling frustrated and confused about where to start,

or you know exactly what you should be doing, but you just can't seem to rustle up enough

willpower to do it, then keep listening. In this podcast, you'll learn the truth about plant-based weight loss, but just as importantly,

how to use proven methods of behavioural change to turn what you know into lifelong habits

that lead to getting and staying lean.

Can't wait to get started.

Let's do this.

I'm so grateful that you've chosen to put me in your ears today.

get more consistent with your food choices.

And this sounds like such a boring and dry topic.

I'm sure that just even the word discipline evokes negative memories from childhood. I know that it brings up a lot of stuff in me. But self-discipline is actually so incredibly necessary to

our long-term success when it comes to making choices,

specifically around food and exercise and good habits, when we don't feel like it.

And so I looked up the definition of self-discipline.

I was going to say dictionary definition, but that would be a lie.

I googled it because Google is your friend.

And anyway, this is what Google had to say.
