14. How Dieting History Shapes Your Journey with Dr. Beverley David - Spring 2025
40:34||Season 5, Ep. 14In this powerful and eye-opening episode, Gina sits down with clinical psychologist Dr. Beverley David to unpack the emotional side of weight loss—and why it matters just as much as the food on your plate. From the mental swirl of Week One to the deep-rooted patterns driving your choices, they explore how your past dieting experiences shape your present, and how understanding your thoughts, emotions, and reactions is key to long-term success. Dr. Beverley introduces the "Five Ps" framework to help you make sense of your story, shares how to shift thought patterns with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and offers practical tools like “Capture–Cancel–Correct” to help you respond, rather than react. Whether you’re spiralling on the scale, triggered by old habits, or just trying to keep your cool mid-Hulk moment, this episode will remind you: the feels don’t mean you’re doing it wrong—they mean you’re doing it right.Dr. Beverley is a Clinical Psychologist registered with the College of Psychologists of Ontario. She also holds a Ph.D. in Sleep Research (Insomnia) and a Master's in Health Psychology.Find Dr. Beverley:https://www.yourpsychologycentre.ca/@drdrbeverleyYou can find the full video hosted at:https://www.facebook.com/groups/livymethodspring2025To learn more about The Livy Method, visit www.ginalivy.com.
