I lost 110 pounds, but I'm most proud of keeping it off. Together, we're going to do the same thing. How do we do the same thing? By not doing the same things we've been doing. That means we'll need a plan -- yes, including me. I don't know everything, and if you're living this life right, you shouldn't, either. It's not about diets, it's not about exercise, it's about healing the mind. Build your plan with me, Mike Pridgen! Be kind to yourself!

- 23 - Are You Holding Yourself to These Standards?
I'm about to starve my cat. The vet said she's too fat, so we have to put her on a special diet and bring her out to exercise and whatnot. But that sounds complicated and expensive so I think I'm just going to stop feeding her.
If you're a normal person, that paragraph upset you. And yet, you've looked in the mirror and said the same thing to yourself. Why wouldn't you starve a cat, but you'd starve yourself?
This week, I talk about standards you're holding yourself to that you're not holding anyone else to, and why it's slowing down your progress.

Wed, 25 Sep 2024 - 34min - 15 - Beat Procrastination, Impostor Syndrome, The Scale, & The Mirror -- Q&A
How to beat procrastination, impostor syndrome, negative self talk, motivation burnout, a lying scale, the mirror, & more in this Discord Q&A episode.
I take questions from out Discord Community and read them for the first time on the show, so that I don't have time to prepare, and you can see my process in giving an answer. I feel that the method by which I get my answer is just as important for you to hear as the answer itself, so that you might be able to solve your own question next time. But I'm always glad to answer!

Wed, 18 Sep 2024 - 55min - 14 - Chris Terrell - Before & After
In this very experimental episode of Mike Needs A Plan, I pull an unreleased episode from the vault -- a year after it was recorded -- to see just how far I've come in the time since.
Who better to do that with than my friend & mentor Chris, a guy who lost 125 pounds and has helped thousands of others do the same for good. He has informed a lot of the way I think about weight loss & the mindset behind it, and it was fantastic getting to go back and revisit the beginning of our friendship a year later.
Join the guild to meet us both! https://chris-terrell.mykajabi.com/a/2147751468/6Hz8hxJY

Wed, 28 Aug 2024 - 35min - 12 - You're Not Going To Like This, But You Need It
This one's going to piss a few of you off. But I wouldn't be serving you properly if all I did was affirm you. You know we do REAL positivity here -- none of that toxic positivity.
This is also not meant to be accusatory, or demeaning. These are tough conversations I had to have with MYSELF if I wanted to keep my 110 pounds off for good. I wasn't going to make progress I was happy with until these things were properly addressed.
You won't, either.

Wed, 21 Aug 2024 - 34min - 11 - Do You Have A Food Partner In Crime? | Ep. 11
Some of us wouldn't eat as much as we do if it wasn't for someone in our lives always suggesting food, and the suggested deciding "sure, I could eat." Sometimes you're the suggested. Sometimes you're the suggestor.
We explore the topic of friends and family with invitations bigger than our appetites, Sean's question from the Discord group regarding how to stay accountable when you want to eat *everything,* and several other hopefully relevant tangents on today's episode.

Wed, 07 Aug 2024 - 42min - 9 - How To Hope Again
I quit my job a year ago. It was the first time in recent memory that I truly, genuinely hoped for something. Without shooting myself down, anyway.
My mantra of "No hopes!" kept me safe for a long time. But what was it keeping me safe *from*? Failure? Or success?
In this episode, I talk about my hope journey, and why it was vital to complete it to maintain the work I'd done on my weight loss journey. What will you hope for this week?

Wed, 31 Jul 2024 - 34min - 8 - 6 Things You DON'T Want To Hear About Improving Your Life
We need to talk.
Don't worry, I'm not about to tell you to"eat less and move more." What more are you going to gain from a skinny guy telling you that again?
Weight. That's what you'll gain. Because it changes absolutely nothing for you to hear that again. You know how the biological process worked, but nobody ever made an attempt to explain howyouas a human being fit into the equation.
That being said,we need to talk about a few things. And hopefully, one or two of them will humanize your journey.

We're always talking about what we CAN do on a weight loss journey, which I'm very grateful for. It's a much-needed shift in the weight loss conversation that has for years been bogged down with everything you can't and shouldn't do.
However, there are SOME things you really can't do anymore if you want to lose 100 pounds and keep it off for good. In this episode, I'll cover 6 of the unexpected things that actually might be slowing down your progress, and you're probably doing a few of them.
