So many times, people who come to us and have 60 lbs to lose worry about the end result. They worry about loose skin, when they'll start exercising or that their goal weight is too low. Why worry about those things when you haven't even started! DON'T BORROW TROUBLE!

In this episode, Cristy and Cari discuss some of the common stuff that people worry about that they shouldn’t even be having in the first place. Some people are very worried about some little details that shouldn’t matter at that time. For instance, someone who is starting a weight loss journey and have some much weight to lose can’t be worried about loose skin. You’ve got bigger fish to fry.

Another thing we hear all the time is the goal weight we choose for our clients in our programs. Some rebels are not happy with the goal weight we set for them. They think they’ll become too skinny. The problem here is that they become obsessed with this number yet they have a lot of work ahead of them.

Once you start your weight loss journey, you’ll get a lot of questions and skepticism from naysayers. Remember you don’t have to justify your health decisions to anybody. Don’t worry about what other people think. This is about your health. 

The problem with worrying about these things is that it consumes so much of your time and your brain. Focus on the weight loss, once you have reached your goal weight, we will be there to help you with the other stuff.
