In this third episode exploring the science behind our hunger, I cover how our mindset affects our body’s ability to lose weight. Drawing from scientific studies, I demonstrate how a growth mindset and positive self-acceptance improve your likelihood of healthy behaviors and success with weight loss.


Highlights:

  • Discover the difference between growth mindsets and fixed trait mindsets, and see how each of these affects our abilities.
  • Learn about epigenetics and why it matters for weight loss.
  • Find out how self-acceptance or self-deprecation changes your behaviors.
  • Hear how our perceptions of ourselves and our behaviors affect our chances of success.
