About this listen
Hosts: Andrew Dewar & Catherine Collins
This episode isn’t about weight loss fads or rigid diet plans. It’s a real, raw look at how we changed our lives through self-worth, gut health, and intentional choices. We didn’t set out to lose weight — we set out to feel better. The 50-pound loss? That was just a powerful side effect.
🧠 What You'll Learn:- Why this wasn’t a weight loss journey — it was a mental health journey
- How healing the gut transformed everything from energy to skin
- What autoimmune symptoms disappeared after our food changes
- Why we focused on feeling better, not counting calories
- How boredom and procrastination fuel emotional eating
- The 3 key mindset shifts that helped us keep the weight off
