Disrupting Obesity
The Disrupting Obesity podcast is for anyone who’s looking to lose an extreme amount of weight and change their relationship with food so they can keep the pounds off. If you’re tired of feeling judged for being fat, of excluding yourself or being left out, and using food to comfort, reward, and cope with your emotions and the day to day, don’t waste time beating yourself up. You absolutely have what it takes to lose a significant amount of weight naturally in a way that you can sustain and that will ensure you keep the weight off too.
Hosted by Charlotte Skanes, a weight loss coach who lost and is keeping off over two hundred pounds, this show will give you the strategies and mindset you need to drop the weight. It’s going to encourage you and motivate you so that you can build the confidence and self-belief to find the healthiest version of yourself. It’s not about the food. It’s about your relationship with food. Once you start to change that relationship you can start disrupting obesity.

124 ~ Weight Loss Nevers I
We’re kicking off a brand new series: the Weight Loss Nevers.
Most of the time you hear about what you should do to lose weight. But in this series, I’m breaking down the things you should NEVER do if you want your weight loss to last. These are the traps, the shortcuts, and the self-sabotage patterns that only make things harder.
In this episode, I share the first three “nevers”:
Never weigh yourself more than once a week. Daily weigh-ins will mess with your head, drive you crazy, and push you toward giving up. Once a week is plenty.
Never go so restrictive you can’t sustain it. If your deficit or food rules are too extreme, you’re setting yourself up to fail. Sustainable weight loss comes from incremental change, not punishment.
Never lose sight of your goal. Big goals matter, but so do the small “micro-goals” that keep you moving forward when the daily grind feels overwhelming.
This episode is about shifting focus away from diet-industry punishment and towards realistic, sustainable strategies. It’s about learning to work with yourself instead of against yourself.
What you’ll learn in this episode:
Why weighing daily makes the scale your enemy instead of your tool
The difference between a healthy calorie deficit and an unsustainable one
How to break big weight loss goals into motivating micro-goals
Why deprivation only leads to overeating (and why you don’t need to punish yourself to lose weight)
If you’ve been stuck in the cycle of extremes - weighing too often, cutting out too much, or losing sight of why you started - this episode will give you a clear, compassionate reset.
