Episode 163 – Loop Holier Than Thou – Part 1

We enjoy forgetting and we’re hoping that you do too.  Way back in episodes 11 and 12 of We Only Look Thin, when the podcast was still in black and white, Catherine and Donald looked at Gretchen Rubin’s “Logic Loopholes” through the lens of weight loss and fitness.  Now they’re doing it again!  Logic loopholes are the lies we tell ourselves that keep us from achieving a goal or starting a habit.  With the benefit of a few more years of experience, the couple take you through loopholes 1 to 5 and remind you that the only way to create a habit is to consistently perform that behavior.  Plus, Donald’s here for freaking you out, Catherine doubles down on buttercups, and the couple are the best at self-sabotage.
