In this episode, TV host, author, creator, and podcaster Cynthia Loyst opens up about her wake-up call with burnout—the moment she realized she couldn’t keep pushing through. From there, she breaks down the difference between burnout and everyday stress, highlighting three unmistakable signs: unshakable exhaustion, emotional detachment, and a steep drop in productivity. The conversation gets real about how we tie our worth to what we achieve, and what it looks like to live in a constant state of "doing." Cynthia also shares practical tools for healing: creating non-negotiable space for joy, asking for help without guilt, and her “AAAH” method—Awareness, Attention, Authenticity, and Help—to reconnect with pleasure. It’s a powerful reminder that joy isn’t indulgent—it’s necessary—and you are worthy, exactly as you are, whether you're doing all the things or absolutely nothing at all.

Maintenance Mindset Mondays is all about cracking open the conversation about what REAL maintenance looks like – beyond the scale and deep into personal transformation. Join Gina and Odette as they dive into the week’s focus, share insights on all things maintenance, and answer your questions. Whether you’re new or experienced, there’s something for everyone!

In this episode, Gina and Odette explore the heart of habit formation during maintenance, asking the real questions: who are you now that you've lost the weight—and who do you want to be? They unpack what it means to reprogram your “automatics,” like how you respond to stress, hunger, and routine without even thinking. From flossing analogies to real-life reflections, the conversation taps into the shift from effort to identity— like how brushing your teeth isn’t just a habit, it’s what you do. It’s a thoughtful check-in on progress, purpose, and what it really means to LIV your life on the other side of weight loss.

In this, Gina reminds listeners that five weeks is more than enough time to see meaningful change—if you’re willing to shift gears. She encourages you to picture the version of yourself who’s already hit their goal and start aligning your choices with that future you. Splitting meals? It’s not just about food—it’s a powerful way to disrupt food noise and rebuild trust in your body. Gina also challenges the guilt loop around indulgences, reframing missteps as information, not failure. From hunger cues to mental shifts, this one’s all about progress over perfection. You’re not behind—you’re right on time.

In this episode, Gina cuts through the noise of Week 7 with some real talk on what it actually takes to keep going. The initial excitement might be wearing off, but that’s the moment things get real. She reminds listeners that momentum isn’t lost just because the scale is up or the week felt off. From using the weekend to reset (not unravel) to trusting the process even when it feels uncomfortable, this episode is a steady nudge forward. Gina also unpacks the meal-splitting tweak, how it challenges old diet patterns, and why showing up—even on a Friday—still matters. If you’ve been wondering whether any of it counts: it does. Today counts. You count. Let’s keep it moving.

In this energizing episode, Gina shares why the urge to move your body might be creeping back in—and what it actually means. From feeling stronger and sleeping better to craving movement that fits who you are now, she reminds us that change doesn't have to look like a gym routine or chasing old versions of ourselves. She also explains why the scale might go up while real progress is happening, and why waiting for motivation is a losing game. Gina brings her signature real talk on how action creates momentum, how splitting your meals this week helps you build trust with food, and why feeding the metabolism challenges old diet brain. Plus, a fresh perspective on movement: it’s not about punishment—it’s a celebration. If you’ve been stuck in your head or waiting for the “right time,” this is the episode you need.

Welcome to your Midweek Motivation!

In this episode, Gina and Odette check in on Week 7 of the Maintenance Program and explore the emotional undercurrent of finding your rhythm after weight loss. From the calm that feels a little too calm, to the subtle but powerful shift in identity—from dieter to maintainer—they unpack what it really means to normalize the ongoing work of maintaining your weight. They reflect on the confidence that comes with routine, the purpose behind the tweaks, and the often-overlooked reality that maintaining weight requires just as much intention as losing it. It’s an honest conversation about doing the work, even when the work looks different now—and why that’s not just okay, it’s empowering.

Join Gina and Program Manager Kim as they break down and dig into the tweak we see in week 7 of The Livy Method.

The Tweak This Week? Feeding the Metabolism

In this episode, Gina and Kim break down the “split meals and snacks” tweak and why it’s a game changer for body awareness and food connection. From shaking up eating patterns to recognizing hunger cues, they explain how this simple shift helps the body work harder for its food—without eating more. They remind listeners there’s no perfect way to do this tweak and encourage them to work it into their own routines, not force it. They also address common questions like what to do when you're not hungry for the second half and why this isn’t forever—but what you learn from it just might be. Whether you're travelling, parenting, or juggling a busy day, this tweak isn’t about perfection, it’s about tuning in.

In this episode, Gina and food addiction counsellor Sandra Elia break down the mental weight of weight loss—where real change begins with awareness, not perfection. They encourage listeners to start by simply noticing their patterns without judgment, leaning into curiosity over criticism. Sandra shares why mindset is the true driver of long-term results and unpacks common thinking traps like all-or-nothing thinking, disqualifying the good, and the ever-so-sneaky “I deserve a treat” logic. She also draws a clear line between planned indulgence and emotional eating, offering tools to redefine what a treat really is. Sandra also explores how your environment and the people around you can either support your growth or keep you stuck. This episode is a must for anyone ready to get out of their own way and start showing up with intention—from their thoughts to their food choices.
