In this episode of the 'Becoming Thin Podcast,' host Chris Harold shares his personal weight loss journey and the importance of overcoming the urge to quit. He delves into the reasons why people typically abandon their weight loss efforts, attributing it to the failure of reconditioning the mind's 'automatic pilot.' Chris explains the conscious versus unconscious mind and emphasizes the need for a core-level change in lifestyle and habits for lasting results. He introduces five key steps to recondition the subconscious mind: repetition of ideas, activating the body, discussing ideas with supportive people, journaling, and modifying the environment. Chris also elaborates on the importance of community support and the Guild of Champions, a community designed to help individuals recondition their automatic pilot and achieve their weight loss goals sustainably. He concludes by urging listeners to be mindful of their automatic behaviors in daily life.

Most people don’t fail at weight loss because their plan didn’t work. They fail because they quit before the timeline was complete.

In this episode, Chris explains why lasting weight loss is more like running a marathon than following a diet. The steps themselves are simple, but the challenge is doing them consistently for a long period of time and staying in the game when quitting feels tempting. If you’ve ever lost weight, gained it back, and wondered what’s wrong with you, this episode reframes the problem entirely.

You’ll learn the one thing every failed weight loss journey has in common, why emotional eating turns progress into double the effort, and why weight loss is really a personal development journey. This episode is about removing quitting as an option and learning how to keep moving forward, even imperfectly, until you reach the finish line.

If you’ve ever thought “I always quit” or “this is taking too long,” this episode is for you.

If you’ve ever started strong with weight loss and then quietly fallen off, this episode explains why.
Quitting isn’t a motivation problem. It’s not a discipline problem. And it’s not a character flaw. In this episode, Chris breaks down what’s actually happening when people lose momentum, revert to old habits, and end up back where they started.
This is not a motivational episode. It’s an explanation of how unconscious patterns take over when attention drops and why relying on motivation is a losing strategy for long-term weight loss.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
• Why most people quit losing weight even when they want it badly
• What’s really happening when motivation fades
• How autopilot behavior overrides good intentions
• Why “self-sabotage” isn’t the right explanation
• Why asking “How do I not quit?” is the real shift
• What actually needs to change for weight loss to last
If you’re tired of starting over and want to finally understand why this keeps happening, this episode will give you clarity.
