Episode 404 – Error Not Found
So, you listened to our most recent episode and you managed to navigate the Halloween candy being thrown at you and you stayed on track. Congratulations, that’s not an easy task. But just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, it turns out there’s another shark in there. This shark’s name is Daylight Saving Time. But instead of arriving like a shark to eat you,
Episode 403 – Creature From the Snack Lagoon
Most lagoons are associated with a color. When you visit The Blue Lagoon, you expect to find a couple of shipwrecked teenagers teaching themselves biology. When you visit The Black Lagoon, you expect to find a creature who isn’t too happy to see you. But what do you expect to find when you visit The Snack Lagoon? You guessed it, another creature. But this time, the creature is you. And this
Episode 402 – GLP-101
If you’re a person in the world, and most of us are, you have probably heard of GLP-1 medication for weight loss. Listener James wrote in to ask about navigating some of the unexpected hurdles of taking it. GLP-1s aren’t part of our own routine, but we think it’s great that they’re available for those who benefit from them. People deserve options that fit their needs. Plus, Catherine is a re
Episode 401 – 401 ‘kay
Brainteasers. Puzzlers. Riddles. Toughies. You threw them all at us and we delivered the goods. And what I mean is, you asked us so many great questions for our 400th episode, that we spent a whole other episode, this one, giving you great answers. Does being vegetarian make it easier? How do you think self-esteem affects weight loss? What’s your favorite piece of advice that you’
Episode 400 – The 400 Club
Four Hundred episodes. Where does the time go? It seems like only last week we were releasing episode 399. For this very special episode, we asked listeners and members of WOLT place to submit their questions and boy howdy did you come through! This week, Catherine and Donald answer your questions and reflect on what they’ve learned since they started. Plus, Catherine gets super jealous,
Episode 399 – Stop, Drop, and WOLT
If you’re a baby and you’re reading this, you’re probably a genius. Congratulations Baby Genius! If you’re older than a baby, you’ve probably taken part in some sort of emergency preparedness drill. A fire drill, earthquake drill, tornado drill, or some other exercise so that you can be ready if the worst happens. Hopefully you never need to use what you learn in
Episode 398 – Time Bandits
There are many types of bandits in the world. We all know about train robbers, highwaymen, and cattle rustlers, oh, my! What about those bandits who are stealing our time? It seems like we never have enough time to exercise, eat right, or get a good night’s sleep. What if that wasn’t true and was just a story we’re telling ourselves? What if the real bandit was just the way
Episode 397 – Opposite Day
It seems like it would be a good idea to envision your best day. Imagine everything going exactly to plan. You conceive of eating on target, nailing your exercise, and getting a great night’s sleep. Imagining and planning for all this would be a good idea except that it’s opposite day. This week, Catherine and Donald ask you to imagine your worst day; the day when you do everything
Episode 396 – Too Clothes for Comfort
You might not believe this, but some people wear clothes every day. For some of those very same people, clothes can be a mental burden when you’re unhappy in your own body. Even when your health and fitness habits are successful, it can be difficult to know how to deal with clothes that no longer fit and when to buy new ones. Listener Kat wrote in all the way from The United Kingdom to as
Episode 395 – For Those About to Walk, We Salute You
We know that some of you are fans of alternating current while others are fans of direct current, so in this episode we have included both AC and DC. Do you ever think about a time when you were really in shape or really on track and wonder what happened? Do you feel some guilt or shame when you try to compare yourself right now to that past version of yourself? This week, Catherine and Donald
Episode 394 – All the Right Moves
Moves. Everyone makes them, but not everyone makes the right ones. Whether it’s busting out the cabbage patch at the company office party or replying to that email from a stranger asking for your banking information, we’ve all made some wrong moves. But have you ever found yourself saying, “I’m making all the right movies, but the number on the scale isn’t budgingR
Episode 393 – Lord of the Onion Rings
When you’re about to set off on a weight loss and fitness journey, adventure, or journventure, you probably don’t think about asking elves, dwarves, or hobbits to join you. But you might, in your own way, be bringing goblins, orcs, and Ringwraiths along in the form of people or influencers who are keeping you from reaching your goals. This week, Catherine and Donald talk about the im
Episode 392 – Mood Ring
Okay, so the 1970s wasn’t all bad. We got Star Wars, Jaws, The Sex Pistols, and Led Zepplin out of it. But we also got disco, streaking, pet rocks, and mood rings. You’re probably thinking how outdated those things are, but there’s a strong chance that you’re still relying on your mood ring for your weight loss and fitness choices. Except instead of calling it a “
Episode 391 – Mission ThinPossible
Has this ever happened to you? You’re a vital part of a spy mission, but the spy who dives out of the way of the giant exploding fish tank gets all the credit. Typical. Just like in the spy game, when it comes to weight loss and fitness, the big, flashy moves get all of the attention. What really makes the mission a success is all of the behind the scenes work that goes into the preparation.
Episode 390 – Click Bait
This is the episode that other podcasters don’t want you to hear! Most of us have fallen for click bait. We’ve clicked the link that said a terrible thing was happening to our favorite place or that impending doom awaited in our toothpaste, only to find out that the terrible thing wasn’t so terrible and our toothpaste was just doing its job. What you may not know, is that when
Episode 389 – I Like Big Shoulds and I Cannot Lie
If you’re part of the giant throng that has been clamoring for a collab, which is short for “collaboration”, between Gretchin Rubin and Sir Mix-A-Lot, wait no further. Do you find yourself saying things like, “I really should go running” or “I really should eat more raw vegetables”, but the idea of doing either of those things fills you with dread? This su
Episode 388 – Square Pegs
Keys are great for jingling to make a baby laugh, but not so good for weight loss and fitness plans. If you’re like Catherine and Donald, you probably spent years or even decades searching for a “turnkey solution” to your weight and fitness issues. It turns out that there is no one-size fits all plan to developing the habits to hit your goals. This week, the We Only Look Thin tea
Episode 387 – BYO Summer – Part 2
If you’re a hotshot you’re probably used to pop quizzes. People are always coming up to you and saying, “Pop quiz, hotshot!”. But if you’re a regular shot, a room temperature shot, or maybe even a cold shot, you may not have become accustomed to the pop quiz. No matter what kind of shot you are, Catherine and Donald spring a pop quiz on you this week. Did you take awa
Episode 386 – BYO Summer – Part 1
If you’re like most people, when you think of Summer you think of the 1986 John Cusack movie, “One Crazy Summer” and the eternal questions, “Who invented liquid soap and why?”. Or maybe you think of beaches and backyard barbeques and vacations. But if you’re like Catherine and Donald, you think about loopholes. The lies we tell ourselves to get out of sticking t
Episode 385 – Does This Kale Spark Joy?
If you’re like me, when you think about “life changing magic”, you think about tidying up. Author Marie Kondo is right there with us. Her KonMari method of decluttering involves holding items in your hand and asking if they spark joy. What if we could use the same method as a way to reassess our health journventures for this season? This week, Catherine and Donald walk you throug
Episode 384 – Overthinkers Anonymous
You’ve got to have the perfect plan, right? The one with the best tools, the optimal routine, and maximum efficiency. It has to be out there and you just know you can find it. You can plan your way into it. However, there’s a point at which all of the planning stops being productive and just becomes information overload. You’re not really doing anything, you’re just thinkin
Episode 383 – The Case of the Secret Snack
If you’re like me and you think about food all the time, when you hear the word “secret”, your mind might go straight to “secret sauce” or “secret herbs and spices”. But did you know that there are other kinds of secrets? Sometimes, because of the emotions surrounding our weight, we might eat in secret. This week, Catherine and Donald examine secret eating
Episode 382 – Fraud Hard
There’s a raging debate on the internet about whether or not this is a Christmas episode. It has all the hallmarks; it’s being released in May and the hosts mention Christmas once or twice. Despite those clues, you’ll have to make up your own mind. Anyway, this week Catherine and Donald talk about ways to stop fooling ourselves. Sometimes while trying to get healthy, we can be ou
Episode 381 – Warning Label
Movies, TV shows, and books make you think that committing fraud is all fun and games. The reality of committing fraud can look very different from the glamorous portrayal in literature and on the screen. Similarly, when we cheat ourselves on our health and fitness goals, there are obvious downsides, but there are also hidden dangers. This week, Catherine and Donald reveal how fooling yourself
Episode 380 – Goal Control
The triangle might be your favorite musical instrument and you might collect original vinyl albums from the world’s greatest trianglists. Or maybe you’ve enjoyed being “Team Edward” or “Team Jacob” in one of literature’s greatest love triangles. But unless you’re an accountant, you probably have never heard of a “fraud triangle”. This wee
Episode 379 – Afraid of the Dark
Some people are afraid of the dark because they can’t see the ghouls. Other people are afraid of the dark because that’s when their relentless snaking happens. Catherine and Donald probably can’t help with the ghouls, but they just might be able to help with the snacks. This week, the couple take you through some strategies for managing your night-time eating. Adding some pla
Episode 378 – Abili-buddies – part 3
You say you want to exercise. You have the best of intentions to exercise. But the day goes by, and you still don’t do it. But what’s stopping you? That’s where BJ Fogg’s ability chain comes in. It might be time, routine, physical effort, mental effort, money, or a combination. This week, Catherine and Donald walk you through letting go of ideals and by using the ability ch
Episode 377 – Abili-buddies – part 2
If you’re like most people, you try to eat food every day. Sometimes, even making a dinner that fits into our health and fitness goals can be a challenge. But what’s really stopping you? This week, Catherine and Donald use BJ Fogg’s “ability chain” to break down the reasons that it might be giving you trouble. Buy looking at each link in the chain, Time, Money, Ro
Episode 376 – Abili-buddies – part 1
Whether it’s racing formula 1, becoming a fire truck when we grow up, or losing 5 pounds, we’ve all said that we wanted to do something, but then haven’t done it. Most of the time we don’t take the next step and really look at what’s making it difficult to do what we say we want to do. That’s where Dr. BJ Fogg and his ability chain comes in. This week, Catherine
Episode 375 – Going Streaking
Historians and the people who lived through it, often ask the question, “what the heck was wrong with the 1970s? Disco, mood rings, pet rocks, and of course, streaking. The act of running through a public place without any clothes on as a prank became very popular. Sure, you burned some calories, but what the fudge? Anyway, this episode is about a different kind of streak. In weight loss, we
Episode 374 – Postmortem
The word “postmortem” comes from the Latin words “post” (after) and “mortem” (death). What a cheerful way to start a podcast! My point here is that businesses are too lazy to come up with new words, so they’ve co-opted the word “postmortem” to refer to looking back at a project after it’s over to figure out what went right and what could
Episode 373 – Worst Case Scenario
If you’re a longtime listener, you already know that our second favorite thing is to make parallels between business strategies and health goals. If you’re also a fan of that practice, this episode is for you. Usually, we encourage you to imagine that you can accomplish your goals and figure out how to do just about anything. This week, we’re asking you to imagine that it̵
Episode 372 – Final Destination Addiction
After last week’s episode, you probably thought that it was impossible for a weight loss and fitness podcast to include even more facts about Ohio. You were sorely mistaken. This week, the couple answer the second question from listener Erin in Ohio, “How will I know when I’ve lost enough”? The answer isn’t as easy as it might seem to some and the couple walk you t
Episode 371 – Let’s Weight Awhile
Listener Erin wrote in asking about how to deal with plateaus. At first, we thought it was strange that she’d turn to us for information about areas of relatively level, high ground. Maybe there was a Geology podcast we could recommend. Then we realized she was asking about how to deal with periods in your weight-loss journ-venture when your results level off. How do you know when it̵
Episode 370 – People Pleaser
You’ve probably heard the old expression, “People: you can’t live with them”. But if that’s true, why do we spend so much of our time and energy trying to make them happy? A lot of us are “people pleasers”. Most of the time we put the needs of others above our own. It turns out that that may be one of the main reasons we can’t hit our weight and heal
Episode 369 – S.W.O.T. in the Name of Love
As it is nearing Valentine’s Day people’s attention turns towards one thing; business strategies. It is generally accepted that business strategies aren’t good for anything, but what if I told you that you could apply some of the concepts to weight loss? This week, Catherine and Donald walk you through doing a S.W.O.T. (Strategies, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) analysis o
Episode 368 – Adaption, ation, ation
If you’re a character in a movie about big game hunting, at some point you’ll probably say, “humans are truly the most dangerous animals on earth”. If you’re a real person looking to form new habits to hit a weight and health goal, you should know that humans are the most adaptable species on earth. However, learning to adapt to new situations and challenging obstac
Episode 367 – Rigidity Rebellion
Do you pride yourself on knowing the one right way to do something? Do you often say, “my way or the highway” and think it’s a good thing? Not so fast dear listener. This week, Catherine and Donald talk about the dangers of rigidity when it comes to weight loss and fitness. Life is going to happen and when it does, you need to be ready to adjust your thinking and approaches when
Episode 366 – Facts Evasion
If you’re like most people, you probably look into a mirror and sing the Eurythimics song, “Would I Lie To You?”. You sing, “Now would I say something that wasn’t true? I’m asking you sugar, would I lie to you?” When it comes to tracking your calories, the answer is “yes”. Yes, you would lie to yourself. This week, Catherine and Donald take
Episode 365 – Alan or Nothing
It’s our 7-year anniversary! Hooray! To celebrate, we’re going to talk about giving up. Isn’t’ that just like us? Sometimes, we bump up against a number on the scale that just won’t budge, and it can feel like bumping our heads against the wall. Listener Alan wrote in about this situation and how it can lead to wanting to give up entirely. Catherine and Donald t
Episode 364 – After Party
If you’re like a lot of us, you may have treated the end of 2024 like a big party full of food. You may have also treated the beginning and/or middle of 2024 like a big party full of food too. Now, 2025 is practically upon us and we’re trying to bring the party to a close. This week, Catherine and Donald talk about “restarting” and what it means to you. What habits will you
Episode 363 – Cramming for Christmas
There are many ways to participate in cramming. You may have tried to cram too many people into the same car, or, if you’re like the hosts of this show, you’ve tried to cram too many snacks into your mouth. And of course, there’s the classic “cramming for a test”; trying to force as much information into your brain as possible on the night before an exam. One type of
Episode 362 – Perfection Paralysis
Do you ever wish you could take the thoughts in your head about losing weight and getting more physically fit and turn them into actions in a place not inside your head? Unfortunately, the time isn’t perfect, the plan isn’t perfect, the location isn’t perfect, and a million other things aren’t perfect and so you just stay where you are. We’ve all been there. This week
Episode 361 – Perfect Strangers vs Progress Strangers
Why don’t I just do everything perfectly? Shouldn’t I wait for the perfect circumstances before I start? If you’ve found yourself saying these kinds of things, you might be a perfectionist. Or maybe just a procrastinator. Catherine and Donald have been there too. This week, the couple talk about Marie Forleo’s book, “Everything is Figureoutable” and in part
Episode 360 – Holly Jolly Policies
Winging it might work for improv comedians and reindeer flying around, but winging it on your food and exercise plan through the holidays is a set up for regret. For decades, Catherine and Donald went into the holidays without any planning and came out many pounds up on the scale. But sticking to a rigid plan isn’t the answer either. This is where having policies can save the day. Polici
Episode 359 – Math Potatoes
You know that magical feeling when you open a present and discover that it’s the gift of math? Well, we’ve got a whole episode dedicated to giving you that feeling! If you’re like a lot of us, you might be tempted to just give up on any weight or health goals until next year. What if we had a better idea? This week, Catherine and Donald help guide you through planning for the res
Episode 358 – Fall Back Plan – Part 3
It’s that special time of year in between Halloween and Thanksgiving when people can only think of one thing; forming new and healthy habits. Friend of the show in our dreams, Gretchen Rubin, wrote a book about it and this week, Catherine and Donald go through her final eight strategies for forming habits. Are you going to turn to pairing, clarity, or other people? Or maybe everyone’s
Episode 357 – Fall Back Plan – Part 2
You might be saying to yourself, “Look, it’s Autumn. Can’t you just let me enjoy the leaves changing color and some pumpkin spice?” It’s a fair point, but it’s not what we do here. We help you form habits that will allow you to reach and maintain your weight loss and fitness goals. And so does Gretchen Rubin. This week, the couple takes you through 9 more o
Episode 356 – Fall Back Plan – Part 1
It’s that time of year again when everyone starts turning their attention towards one thing; habit formation. But how do you start? Close personal friend of the show, Gretchen Rubin (we wish) has some ideas. She literally wrote the book on it. This week, Catherine and Donald go over Gretchen Rubin’s first four strategies of habit formation and relate them to weight loss, health, and fi
Episode 355 – Dawn of the Dread
At Halloween time, dread is supposed to be part of the fun. But when it comes to exercise, dread is a major part of why we don’t do it. But where does that dread come from? This week, Catherine and Donald examine the origins of dreading a new healthy activity and give you some suggestions as to how to get over the dread and on with the movement. The chilling truth is that adults are responsi
Episode 354 – The Snacks’orcist
At this special time of year, we are reminded that demons like to possess young people and make their heads spin around. Some people have demons from heck, while others have demons jn the form of snacks. Nobody knows what to do about demon snacks, do they? Catherine and Donald may have some suggestions. Based on an article from neuroscientist Alex Korb, Phd, the couple walk you through some id
Episode 353 – Spirits of Halloween
This time of year striking a balance between werewolves and ghouls can get you. Similarly, striking a balance between working treats into your life and cutting them out all together can get you. Figuring out when to moderate and when to put a pause on certain foods and beverages is a tricky road to travel, and this week, Catherine and Donald are here to help. Planning, pivoting, portioning, and
Episode 352 – Ouija Board Weight Loss
If you’ve ever used a Quija (trademark Hasbro) board, it can seem like the other person or people are moving the planchette around. It’s definitely not you making those choices. When we make impulsive food decisions, we WANT to feel like we’re not making those choices either. It was definitely the spirit world that made me eat that entire cake by myself. This week, Catherine
Episode 351 – The Fall Guy
If you’re like me, you thought the movie “The Fall Guy” was about a guy who loved the Autumn so much that he dedicated his life to keeping the Fall season in his heart all the year round. It turns out, that movie was about a stunt person in love with a Director who solves crimes for some reason. Have you ever thought about how cool it would be to have your own stunt person step
Episode 350 – Mise en Place
Most of us know that French is virtually impossible to translate, but there are a select few who understand some of the words. Luckily, We Only Look Thin’s Catherine is one of those select few. This week, the couple talk about how the culinary process, “Mise en Place”, or “Putting in Place”, can help us to achieve weight loss and fitness goals. When we put the righ
Episode 349 – Freaky Friday
If you’re like most of us, you’ve wished for a magical body transformation. To be granted a wish and to wake up in a brand new, perfect body. And you’ve probably promised that you’ve learned a lesson and you’ll always be good from now on if you can just be thin now. But if that really happened, would you know how to maintain that weight or would you celebrate with foo
Episode 348 – Growth Spurt
We’ve all asked Mary, Mary quite contrary how her garden grows and she’s given us some story about using silver bells and cockle shells and pretty maids all in a row. That story doesn’t seem to check out. What effect do silver bells have on plant growth? What even is a “cockle shell” anyway? When you think about it, the right question should be, “how do I make m
Episode 347 – Autumn Reset
Labor Day Sale?!? Pumpkin Spice?!? Halloween Decorations?!? Wasn’t the summer just getting started? If you’re like a lot of us, you entered the year with lofty goals for your weight, health, and fitness. And if you’re like a lot of us, things haven’t turned out how you’d hoped. It’s tempting as we head into the Fall to just put it all off until next year. Th
Episode 346 – Bouncing Back on Track
Have you ever thought to yourself something like, “a positive attitude just means you’re not really paying attention to the word” or “these people need to get their heads out of the clouds and face that fact that they’re never going to get there”.? If you answered “yes”, you might need to work on your resilience. This week, Catherine and Donald talk
Episode 345 – Why MCA
When you’re in your 20’s, most people want to lose weight to look better in a pair of Vidal Sassoon blue jeans. As we get older, most people still want to lose weight to look better in a pair of Vidal Sassoon blue jeans. This week, Catherine and Donald talk about the importance of finding a deeper “why” for your weight and fitness goals. What do you value in life? What kind
Episode 344 – Won Moment in Time
The Olympics may be winding down, but there are still a ton of lessons that “regular people” can learn from Olympians. In a lot of ways, hitting a goal weight is a lot like winning an Olympic medal. This week, Catherine and Donald talk about how, just like top athletes, you need to start planning for after the event even before you get there. Plus, Catherine Ws the Heck, Donald names t
Episode 343 – Olympics of One
If you’re like me, you were watching the Olympic Men’s gymnastics rings event this morning and you were thinking, “I could never do that”. Or maybe you were thinking, “It must be nice to just be able to do nothing except exercise all the time. If I could do that, I’d finally be thin.” Or maybe, “I would have made a great pole vaulter if I’d tri
Episode 342 – Eye of the Swarm
You probably think it’s a coincidence that the word “Storm” rhymes with the word “Swarm”, but is it? Probably. However, it isn’t a coincidence that when you are trying to change your behaviors, one of the most effective brainstorming methods is the Swarm of Behaviors created by BJ Fogg, PhD. This week, Catherine and Donald break down the Swarm of Behaviors an
Episode 341 – Tell Me What You Want
Everyone agrees that there are only two kinds of people in this world: Spice Girls people and Backstreet Boys people. But what if we put aside our differences and used the lessons taught by both super groups to get to the heart of our weight loss and fitness goals? This week, Catherine and Donald talk about the first step in BJ Fogg’s Behavior Design model; clarify the aspiration. When yo
Episode 340 – This is the Weigh
If you’re a space bounty hunter travelling with your adopted child, you probably don’t worry too much about weighing yourself. On the other hand, if you’ve had life-long weight issues you probably worry about it a lot. Maybe too much. Or maybe not enough. Developing a healthy relationship with the scale can be a difficult minefield to navigate. This week, Catherine and Donald wal
Episode 339 – N.E.A.T. Me in St. Louis
Summertime is traditionally a time for beaches, pools, road trips and vacations. Just like teenagers in love who walk hand in hand, road trips and vacations are paired with food and drink indulgences. If you’re anything like Catherine and Donald, you can’t find one without the other. This week, the couple give you some basic tips on navigating the summer vacation season while still kee
Episode 338 – WOLT Hot American Summer
For some, the official start of summer means BBQs and vacations. For others, it means getting stuck in a rut. This week, Catherine and Donald help you look at the summer and adapt your health and fitness routine to the season. Maybe that means moving your activity outdoors and maybe it means moving it into air conditioning; either way it means moving yourself towards your goals. Plus, Catherin
Episode 337 – Convenient Store – Part 3
Mental effort, physical effort, and routine. When you hear that a podcast episode is about those three things, it makes it extra tempting to listen. But what if we threw in “The Ability Chain”, invented by Stanford Professor and bestselling author, BJ Fogg, PhD? And what if we let you know that Catherine and Donald take three links in the ability chain and help you troubleshoot addi
Episode 336 – Convenient Store – Part 2
If you’re the band Erasure, you probably want to Break These Chains of Love. If you’re BJ Fogg, PhD, you want to make your ability chain stronger. It’s sort of a Yin and Yang thing. This week, Catherine and Donald look at the first two links in the ability chain, Time, and Money, and walk you through how you troubleshoot them to get more movement into your life. By making each of
Episode 335 – Convenient Store – Part 1
You’ve heard of necklace chains and bicycle chains and probably even the “Chain of Fools”, but have you heard of the Ability Chain? BJ Fogg, author of “Tiny Habits”, encourages people to make behavior change easier to do. Make it more convenient to do the habits that you want to put in place. This week, Catherine and Donald talk about using the five links in the Ab
Episode 334 – The Weakest Link
If you’re a character from Game of Thrones, you might be known as the “Breaker of Chains”, but if you aren’t a character from Game of Thrones, you probably aren’t. However, even if it’s not a literal chain, there may be links in a metaphorical chain holding you back from achieving your weight loss goals. This week, Catherine and Donald talk about BJ Fogg’
Episode 333 – Thinside Job – Part 3
If Schoolhouse Rock taught me anything, it’s that three is the magic number. And if that’s true then Episode 333 must be triple magic! AND, it’s part three of our series on Logic Loopholes. Is that too many threes in one episode? Have Catherine and Donald gone too far this time? Listen and find out! This week, the couple explore the final three (another three!) of Gretchen R
Episode 332 – Thinside Job – Part 2
The middle episode of a trilogy is often considered filler. Just a bridge to get from the set up in part one to the final payoff in part three. But this middle part is more of a hole and filler. Loophole that is. In the second part of their Logic Loophole series, Catherine and Donald talk about 4 more of Gretchen Rubin’s “barriers to habit formation” and add a few more of the
Episode 331 – Thinside Job – Part 1
Loopholes. Sometimes we work so hard to jump through them, we should call them “hoopholes”. Because people make themselves jump through hoops. Get it? This week, the couple go through first three of Gretchen Rubin’s “Logic Loopholes”; excuses we tell ourselves to get out of doing what we promised ourselves we’d do. Then the couple add a few of their own.
Episode 330 – Doom Patrol
When we name an episode of this show after DC Comics’ wackiest super team, it might be easy to assume that Donald came up with the title, but in fact, Catherine did. Maybe she’s more of a nerd than you thought. Anyhoodle, Catherine found an article from timeular.com about the importance of setting realistic goals in your work life and the gang here at We Only Look Thin decided to mak
Episode 329 – Never Say Never
What has dinosaurs, talking mice, street teams, and 3 cats in a trench coat? This episode of course! Have you ever said to yourself, “I’ll never do that again” only to find yourself right back there at some point? Saying things like “never” and “always” sets us up for disappointment, shame, and an all or nothing attitude. The key to long-term weight loss s
Episode 328 – Tricked by the AARP – Part 2
Those loveable scoundrels at the AARP tricked us into reading an article by Katie Smith about ten habits that could change your life forever. Wouldn’t you know it, the article turned out to be great! Now, we run down the second half of the ten habits: that’s nearly 5! Catherine and Donald take you through the weight loss, fitness, and mental health benefits of cutting people out of
Episode 327 – Tricked by the AARP – Part 1
What if we told you that there were ten habits that could change your life forever? What if we further told you that the habits came from the AARP? Then, what if we told you that we were only going to tell you about five of them this week? Based on an article on thegirlfriend.com from the AARP by Katie Smith, Catherine and Donald dive into habits that you might want to adopt to achieve your
