FOMO vs. Following Your Inner Voice

Hello,

This week on April and Debbie Dish the Truth on Weight Loss, we’re digging into something that comes up A LOT on this journey…

🌟 The Fear of Missing Out vs. Honoring Your Goals 🌟

April shares how she’s navigating life with a gluten allergy—not just avoiding it because she has to, but reminding herself why she chooses to say no in the moment to feel her best. Debbie opens up about her decision to give up drinking and the emotional (and sometimes awkward) moments that come with being the one who says, “no thanks.”

Together, we talk about how to stop people-pleasing and start honoring your inner voice—even when you're surrounded by pressure and tempting offers. 💬

And we’re not leaving you hanging—

🧠 We’re also sharing our Mental Rehearsal Tips for Saying No to Food/Drink Pushers to help you feel more confident in those tricky moments:

Mental Rehearsal Tips for Saying No to Food/Drink Pushers

1. Visualize the Trigger Scenario
   → Imagine someone offering you that drink or dessert. Picture it clearly.

2. Rehearse Your Response
   → “Thanks, but I’m good right now.”
   → “That looks great, but I’m sticking to my plan today.”

3. Imagine Your Confidence
   → Calm. Smiling. Relaxed. You’ve got this.

4. Mentally Prepare for Pushback
   → “Come on, it’s just one!”
   → “It is tempting! But I’m feeling good about my choices today.”

5. Feel the Victory
   → Picture yourself walking away feeling PROUD. 🙌

6. Practice Weekly
   → It only takes 2-3 minutes. Try different settings so you're ready when it counts.
