About this listen

Welcome to the Real Life Weight Loss Podcast where we cut through the confusion and get down to the truth - down to what really works for REAL people when it comes to losing weight and keeping it off. We're diving into the most doable, sustainable weight loss strategies. This podcast is all about busy moms, dads, husbands, wives who are working, raising kids, and trying to juggle everything life’s throwing at them … but also want to be the best they can for their family and friends and loved ones. I’m your host Corey Little, a nutritionist and weight loss specialist with 2 degrees, 3 certifications, and 20 years of experience. I've been a champion bodybuilder with 3% body-fat and I’ve also pigged out at all-you-can-eat buffets and have a deep love of food and enjoying life like crazy! So, I’m not some Nutrition Robot or extremist. I’m a real person just like you who loves the good things in life - friends, family, and all the delicious food that comes with it. So, make no mistake - this podcast is NOT about how to get six-pack abs or how to drop as much weight as possible in 8 weeks. There’s more to life than abs and there’s more to your body than how much you weigh. Honestly, weight loss is not really about losing weight … it’s about gaining life! Doing things you never thought you could. Having renewed confidence. And enjoying your body and your health more than ever. Week by week, I’ll provide bite-sized guidance - 15 to 20 minute episodes that pull back the curtain and reveal the truth about what it takes to lose weight and gain life - what strategy and approach real people are using to get results without giving up their day-to-day life. And here’s the really cool part … It’s really not as hard or confusing as you might think. Changing your body, getting crazy healthy, and demanding success from life is do-able for everyone - and it can be fun - and I’ll show you how.Copyright 2026 Corey Little Hygiene & Healthy Living Psychology Psychology & Mental Health

  • The Accountability Myth: Why I’ve Changed My Mind About Accountability
    Feb 17 2026

    “I need someone to hold me accountable.”

    It’s one of the most common things people say when they’re struggling to stay consistent. And for a long time, I believed it too.

    In this episode, I explain why I’ve changed my mind about accountability. It’s often misunderstood and overvalued.

    This episode is about shifting from being afraid to let others down to learning how to stop letting yourself down — and why your relationship with yourself is the real foundation for consistency.

    WHAT YOU’LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE:

    1. Why accountability isn’t the magic solution most people think it is
    2. Why fear of letting others down doesn’t last
    3. The difference between external and internal accountability
    4. How repeatedly “falling short” trains you to expect failure from yourself
    5. Why repairing your relationship with yourself matters more than you can imagine
    6. What truly successful clients do differently


    WHO THIS EPISODE IS FOR:

    >> Anyone who feels like they “just need more accountability”

    >> People who struggle with consistency and follow-through

    >> Those who have started and stopped many times


    This is the kind of work I do with my clients. If you want support doing this work instead of trying to figure it out on your own, you can learn more about working together by shooting an email to: support@CoreyLittleCoaching.com

  • 5 Things I’m Seeing That Are Ticking Me Off and Screwing You Up
    Feb 10 2026

    There are a handful of ideas I’m seeing everywhere right now — on social media, in ads, and in the weight loss space — and honestly, they’re driving me a little crazy.

    Why? Because they’re oversimplified, misleading, and quietly setting people up to fail.

    In this episode, I break down five things that sound convincing on the surface, but often do more harm than good when it comes to weight loss, health, and long-term success.

    This isn’t about trends or hot takes.

    It’s about learning how to think more clearly in a world that rewards extremes, shortcuts, and unrealistic expectations.

    If you’ve ever felt confused, discouraged, or pulled in ten different directions when it comes to fitness and nutrition — this episode will help you recalibrate.

    This episode is for . . .

    >> Anyone tired of conflicting advice about weight loss

    >> People who feel overwhelmed by fitness trends and extremes

    >> Those who want sustainable results — not shortcuts

    >> People who value clarity, honesty, and long-term thinking

    >> Anyone ready to stop chasing hype and start thinking critically

    Here's what we'll cover . . .

    1. Why absolute, black-and-white claims should always raise a red flag
    2. How underqualified coaches create more confusion than clarity
    3. Why trying to fix internal struggles with external “solutions” rarely works
    4. The real problem with short-term challenges for long-term weight loss
    5. How unrealistic body ideals distort what “success” even means anymore
    6. GLP-1 medications, peptides, and why they can’t do the work for you
    7. Why “It depends” is often the most honest and correct answer
    8. How social media has warped our expectations of healthy bodies
    9. The difference between being good at social media and being good at coaching


    This episode reflects how I approach coaching — not with absolutes, gimmicks, or shortcuts, but with nuance, real-world application, and keeping the long game in mind.

  • Emotional Eating, Stress Eating, and The Deserve-It Mentality
    Feb 3 2026

    Have you ever noticed how easy it can be to find a reason to eat?

    A great day.

    A hard day.

    Stress.

    Celebration.

    Exhaustion.

    In this episode, we explore emotional eating, stress eating, and what I call the “deserve it” mentality. Whether we realize it or not, this is quietly undermining our relationship with food and long-term results

    Using real client examples, we explore how the same mindset shows up whether you’re celebrating success or struggling with stress … and why both lead to the same outcome when food becomes the reward, relief, or escape.

    This episode isn’t about restriction or shame.

    It’s about awareness, honesty, and choosing a better framework — one that supports real freedom instead of keeping you stuck in cycles of reward, guilt, and restarting.

    WHAT YOU’LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE:

    1. What the “deserve it” mentality really is (and why it’s so common)
    2. How “deserve it” shows up during both success and stress
    3. Why earning food through exercise, dieting, or emotional suffering backfires
    4. Why “deserve” vs “don’t deserve” is a trap either way
    5. What it looks like to move from a deserve-it mindset to a freedom mindset


    WHO THIS EPISODE IS FOR:

    1. Anyone who eats “because they deserve it” — for good days or bad ones
    2. People who feel stuck in cycles of reward, guilt, and restarting
    3. Those who use food to cope with stress, overwhelm, or emotions
    4. Anyone working to rebuild a healthier relationship with food
    5. Those who want freedom, not food rules

    This is the kind of work I do with my clients — learning how to unlink food and emotions, break unhelpful patterns, and build a healthier, more honest relationship with food.
