Weight Loss Doesn't Have to Suck

103: Breaking Self-Sabotage: "The Opposite" Approach to Weight Loss

Kimberly Severson Season 1 Episode 103

This week, I'm sharing a game-changing mindset shift that's completely transformed how I work with clients (inspired by a sitcom you've probably binge-watched) - and it might be exactly what you need to break free from those stubborn patterns that keep you stuck.

So many of us get trapped in these autopilot identities: "I'm just a sugar addict" or "I prefer feeling full" or "I always snack at night." But what if those aren't permanent parts of who you are? What if you could simply try on the opposite identity for size? I break down exactly how practicing the opposite behaviors - even just for one meal or one day - can create surprising shifts in your habits and your results. The best part? These small shifts add up to real, tangible weight loss - without restrictive dieting. 

This approach takes all the pressure off transformation by making it playful and experimental. I share real stories from client sessions where this exercise led to breakthrough moments and consistent weight loss week after week. The truth is, sometimes doing the exact opposite of what feels "normal" or "comfortable" is exactly what creates the momentum you need to finally lose the weight without feeling restricted or deprived. Give this a try - I think you'll be shocked by what happens on the scale and in how you feel in your body!
