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.

130 ~ Weight Loss Nevers IV
In this fourth and final instalment of the Weight Loss Nevers series, Charlotte wraps up with two powerful reminders to help you stay grounded in your journey. These last two “nevers” are some of the most common traps people fall into when trying to lose weight, and learning to avoid them can make all the difference in building momentum that actually lasts.
Key Points
- Never set unrealistic goals
Setting extreme targets may feel motivating at first, but it can quickly set you up for disappointment. Charlotte breaks down why “possible” and “plausible” are two different things and why understanding that difference can protect your motivation and self-trust. - Never beat yourself up
Self-criticism doesn’t make change happen faster. In fact, it often stalls progress. Charlotte shares how shifting your self-talk, even in small, believable steps, can help you stay consistent and resilient.
Why It Matters
- Setting unrealistic timelines can lead to feeling like you’ve failed even when you’re making incredible progress.
- Managing expectations and celebrating small wins creates sustainable momentum.
- Learning to interrupt negative self-talk with facts helps you build a healthier relationship with food and yourself.
Episode Highlights
- Why unrealistic timelines sabotage long-term progress
- How to use “possible vs plausible” as a filter for your goals
- What to do when you catch yourself beating yourself up
- How small mindset shifts compound over time
