In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Practical strategies that work with our unpredictable schedules

• Simple ways to reconnect with your body's signals (even during busy clinic days)

If you're tired of feeling uncomfortable after meals or worried about when you'll eat next during long shifts, this episode is for you.

Let's explore how to make peace with food in a way that actually works for your life as a physician.

Ever feel like you’re all in on a new plan—only to hit a busy week, fall off track, and feel like you’re starting over again?

It’s not your fault. Most weight loss advice was never built for physicians with unpredictable schedules, high stress, and zero extra time.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Matthea Rentea, obesity and internal medicine physician, to talk about how to finally make weight loss sustainable—without burnout, restriction, or relying on willpower.

We’re breaking down:
✅ Why “perfect plans” fail the second life gets busy (and what actually works)
✅ How to eat in a way that feels easy—even on call weeks and post-clinic exhaustion
✅ The mindset shift that makes healthy habits effortless (hint: it’s not about discipline)
✅ How to stop the weekend “off track” spiral and build real consistency
✅ The #1 mistake that keeps physicians stuck in yo-yo dieting

If you’re tired of feeling like weight loss is another full-time job, this episode will change the way you think about food, exercise, and long-term success.

Ever feel like you’re making progress with your eating and weight goals, only to hit a roadblock that throws everything off? You’re not alone. Obstacles like stress, chaotic schedules, and exhaustion are normal, especially for busy physicians. But without the right skills to handle them, it’s easy to feel stuck and defeated.

In this episode of Thriving as a Physician, I share 4 simple steps to overcome obstacles without spiraling into guilt or panic. You’ll learn how to stop thinking setbacks mean failure, why obstacles are part of the process, and how to troubleshoot challenges to keep moving forward.

This is the missing skill diet culture never taught you. Let’s change that.
