In This Episode:
- John
is getting ready to start a new podcast and finds himself with
Impostor Syndrome.
- Adele’s Instagram photo she posted recently for
her 32nd birthday showed a dramatic weight-loss and we talk a bit
about the reactions.
- John-spiration — “Just because someone else is
praised for losing weight doesn’t mean you should be ashamed for
not.”
- John
gets motivated by an Inner Drill Sergeant sometimes. What do you
think? Are you more motivated by negativity or
positivity?
- Emily
has a lot of Marketing (Conspiracy) Theories if you ever get her
started on why something or someone is trending.
- John’s new organizational system is going
well!
- Emily
is re-evaluating her own scheduling system and routine, but she
still likes to get everything out of her head on paper and work off
of that every day.
- She
has also realized losing weight for her is not a priority. She
still enjoys Intermittent Fasting and Yoga, but feels like focusing
on other areas in life and putting weight-loss into maintenance
mode.
- This
isn’t her breaking up with the podcast, BTW! Maintenance Mode is
HARD!
- Emily
looks at pictures of Target aisles because she misses it!
LOL!
- Facebook is just like a scrolling tabloid all
the time! Emily closes Facebook as soon as she gets angry. She
hasn’t been on very often anymore.
- You’re never going to change someone’s opinion
on the Internet. And the best part is, because we can’t go out,
it’s not like we even need to see them!
- Great
job everyone! Yay for the #WinningWednesday posts!
- Emily
never took a lot of Before Shots, and definitely none without a lot
of clothes on.
- Later, Weighters!
