What is going on, everybody? Welcome back to the Mind Over Macrose podcast. As always, I am your host, Mike Milner. And today we have an important episode because I need to explain how to permanently keep the weight off. This is basically going to be a recap of something that we've talked about, a number of

ties, but this still seems to be a common struggle and even just a common, just misunderstanding

on how we actually get our bodies to stop pushing back against weight loss. When you lose weight,

your body pushes back. It doesn't want you to lose weight.

And actually, the opposite is also true. When you gain weight, your body doesn't want you to gain

weight, and it will push back against weight gain. Now, obviously we know that both things can happen.

You can gain weight permanently and you can lose weight permanently.

But your body ultimately wants homeostasis and I think that too many people are still struggling with that concept of how do we create a new normal? This seems to be a major sticking

point. So that's ultimately what we're going to cover. And before we do, I just have

one quick thing. I don't want to take too much time on this because it's really not worth giving

this too much attention, but I just have to say it. And it's an important thing that I really

need to get off my chest. I sent an email the day after the election. If you're on my email

list, you received it. If you unsubscribe and you didn't receive it. But it was a very simple

and what I thought gentle email based off of the fact that I am a human and I do have emotions

and I do have opinions and I do have beliefs.

I thought I was being pretty gentle when I said, I'm disappointed. And then I followed that up by

saying, I understand not everybody will share the same sentiment. So what I'm going to do for myself

is just take a day, not talk about phallos.

I'm going to give myself grace.

I'm going to do whatever I need to do to recover, to manage stress and rally.

And like if you need to do the same, just don't judge yourself and give yourself empathy and grace.

Right.
