Well, my friends, the holidays are upon us, and as we all know, the holidays in so many ways are synonymous with food. We have spent the last few weeks talking about food. Hunger diets and weight loss. Today, we're going to continue in that vein to talk about a very important aspect of healthy dieting that is often missed in the diet, weight loss narrative, an aspect that in my mind is more important to our success than the food that we eat. In this episode of Health Bite, Dr. Adrienne Youdim emphasizes the importance of mindset when it comes to weight loss and healthy eating. She argues that our words and thoughts have a significant impact on our success in achieving our goals. Dr. Adrienne Youdim encourages listeners to shift their language from one of restriction to one of abundance.
