In episode 78, Jill and Chris talk with Elizabeth Sherman about the problems with dieting and willpower.

Elizabeth is a life and weight loss coach who works with women in mid-life to lose weight and feel better through managing easy to do, sustainable habits: diet, exercise, sleep, and stress management. Using certain cues, including cravings, hunger, energy, stress (mood), and sleep, she helps individuals design the right health program for their body and lifestyle, and address obstacles and barriers.

“We can achieve optimal health; which leads to better energy, focus, productivity, relationships, and happiness in our lives.”

Elizabeth is a Chicago native, who now lives in Puerto Morelos Mexico and meets with her clients online. She is a certified life coach, nutritionist, personal trainer, and health coach.

We discuss why she is done with dieting:

Why the “eat less, move more” advice can be more harmful than helpful
How she was able to curb her cravings and what she recommends to clients
How she has helped hundreds of women in midlife to lose weight and keep weight off
What does it mean to listen to your body
Why dieting, willpower or eliminating food groups doesn’t work
Her ideas on frequency and density for changing habits and why that helps
Why she tends to “overload veggies” at lunch
Thoughts on intermittent fasting, dealing with stress, bedtime routines
How she suggests working with your higher brain to use your lower brain for making changes

If you’re new to podcasts, you may be interested in learning about the best podcast episodes for women over 50. Because we are more than halfway through the year, I decided to give you a heads up for the top 10 episodes of our Fit Strong Women Over 50 podcast downloaded during the first half of 2019. I’m calling these the best episodes because of the number of downloads. Everyone has their favorites!

These include a variety of episodes. Some are where we (Jill and Chris) interview experts – personal training, nutrition, and healthy living. In other episodes we interview “regular” people about their habits, routines, motivation and success with getting and staying fit and strong. Two of the episodes were just the two co-hosts discussing topics.

Best Episodes of the First Half of 2019
We defined best by the number of our women over 50 podcast episodes downloaded from our hosting platform during the time frame of 1/1/2019 and 6/30/2019. In other words the time frame is just the first six months of 2019. Most of these podcast episodes were released in 2019. Although all of the 2018 podcast episodes were available for download during the same time frame, they weren’t necessarily in the top ten for the first half of 2019
