What do a weird car noise, two insanely good cookies, and your weight loss journey have in common? Way more than you think.
In this episode, Dr. Lisa shares a personal (and oddly delicious) story about a recurring thunking noise in her car and how it led her to rethink her approach to treats, cravings, and using planning to create freedom around food. Spoiler: It all revolves around Carol’s Cookies, a local bakery legend in Northbrook, IL.
If you're trying to lose weight without giving up your favorite foods, this episode will help you:
- Understand how planned indulgences can support long-term weight loss
- Avoid the restrict-binge cycle that sabotages your progress
- Learn how to identify and handle food cravings and urges without relying on willpower
- Make smarter choices by checking food ingredients (even in so-called “real” foods)
- Practice mindful eating and emotional regulation around food
Whether you're managing prediabetes, counting macros, or simply trying to create a healthier relationship with food, you'll walk away with practical strategies to enjoy your favorite treats without guilt, shame, or losing control.
Tune in for a fresh take on sustainable weight loss and learn how to plan your treats, manage your cravings, and build healthier habits, one cookie (or car repair) at a time.
