Real Life Weight Loss
Hosted by Corey Little · EN
Welcome to the Real Life Weight Loss Podcast where we cut through the confusion and get down to the truth - down to what really works for REAL people when it comes to losing weight and keeping it off. We're diving into the most doable, sustainable weight loss strategies.
This podcast is all about busy moms, dads, husbands, wives who are working, raising kids, and trying to juggle everything life’s throwing at them … but also want to be the best they can for their family and friends and loved ones.
I’m your host Corey Little, a nutritionist and weight loss specialist with 2 degrees, 3 certifications, and 20 years of experience. I've been a champion bodybuilder with 3% body-fat and I’ve also pigged out at all-you-can-eat buffets and have a deep love of food and enjoying life like crazy! So, I’m not some Nutrition Robot or extremist. I’m a real person just like you who loves the good things in life - friends, family, and all the delicious food that comes with it.
So, make no mistake - this podcast is NOT about how to get six-pack abs or how to drop as much weight as possible in 8 weeks. There’s more to life than abs and there’s more to your body than how much you weigh.
Honestly, weight loss is not really about losing weight … it’s about gaining life! Doing things you never thought you could. Having renewed confidence. And enjoying your body and your health more than ever.
Week by week, I’ll provide bite-sized guidance - 15 to 20 minute episodes that pull back the curtain and reveal the truth about what it takes to lose weight and gain life - what strategy and approach real people are using to get results without giving up their day-to-day life.
And here’s the really cool part …
It’s really not as hard or confusing as you might think.
Changing your body, getting crazy healthy, and demanding success from life is do-able for everyone - and it can be fun - and I’ll show you how.

Transcribe →The Moment That Makes or Breaks Your Weight Loss Journey
1w ago00:26:42Tap to summarizeIn this episode, I break down one of the biggest hidden obstacles to lasting weight loss success. I call it the "Panic Loop."That moment when the scale goes up a little, progress feels too slow, or fear takes over ... it can completely derail your ability to think clearly, assess, and adjust.Because when people panic around weight loss, they often: > Jump to unsustainable extremes > Start believing they’re broken > Obsess over the scale even more > Cut out entire food groups > Chase fast results instead of lasting changeThis episode is for anyone who feels urgency, pressure, fear, or emotional chaos around weight loss and the scale.You’re not broken. But you may be stuck in a panic loop.In This Episode:The “weight loss panic loop” explainedThe hiking analogy that changes how you think about setbacksWhat happens when people panic around the scaleWhy extreme dieting creates more problems laterWhy “Your emotions are real, but not necessarily true”Questions to help you assess your own mindset around weight lossJoin Corey’s Email Newsletter: https://LoseFatList.comANTI-DIET CLASS: https://AntiDietClass.com
Transcribe →Cindy's Story of Mindset Transformation, Renewed Self Confidence, and Keeping The Weight Off For Over 3 Years Now
2w ago00:49:11Tap to summarize“I’m finally comfortable in my own skin.”What if lasting transformation had less to do with willpower… and everything to do with the way you think?In this deeply honest and inspiring conversation, former coaching client “Cindy Lou” shares the mindset breakthroughs that completely changed her life and body.After decades of all-or-nothing thinking, emotional pressure, and tying her value to the scale, Cindy found a new way forward — one built on grace, awareness, reframing, and sustainable habits.Today, she says she feels free, grounded, and more comfortable in her own skin than ever before.This episode is about far more than weight loss. It’s about identity change, emotional healing, and learning how to live from self-respect instead of self-punishment.Cindy opens up about overcoming all-or-nothing thinking, releasing emotional attachment to the scale, and learning how to give herself grace without giving up on her goals.One of the biggest turning points came through understanding her “emotional home” and learning how to reframe thoughts and reactions that had been wired into her identity for over 55 years.This conversation is a powerful reminder that real transformation starts in the mind — and that lasting change becomes possible when we stop trying to punish ourselves into becoming someone new.Just a few snippets from our discussion . . .“The weight isn’t my focus anymore — it’s just a result of the way I’m living.”“I don’t live all-or-nothing anymore.”“You can’t undo 55 years of thinking overnight.”“Those old thoughts feel foreign now.”“I’m finally comfortable in my own skin.”“Grace helped me change more than shame ever did.”Join Corey’s Email Newsletter: https://LoseFatList.comANTI-DIET CLASS: https://AntiDietClass.com
