The Chris Terrell Podcast
By Chris Terrell
A Step-by-Step Guide to Sabotaging Yourself
In this episode of the Becoming Thin Podcast, I flip the script on weight loss advice. Instead of telling you how to succeed, I walk you through exactly how to fail—on purpose.
If you’ve ever caught yourself repeating the same frustrating patterns, this episode will hit hard. I cover 10 common (and sneaky) self-sabotaging habits that make weight loss miserable, unsustainable, or straight-up impossible.
This episode is part mindset wake-up call, part reverse psychology, and 100% real talk. By the end, you’ll know whether you’re unknowingly setting yourself up to struggle—and what to do instead.
Why extreme restriction sounds smart—but backfires fast
How your self-talk is either sabotaging or saving you
Why “fast results” is the wrong goal (and what to chase instead)
The hidden danger of talking to the wrong people about your journey
What happens when you assume you’re broken—and how to break that belief

This week’s episode is all about something most people think they understand—but have actually lost touch with: hunger.
Not cravings.
Not habit eating.
Not snacking just because it’s lunchtime or someone else is eating.
I’m talking about real, physical hunger—and what happens when you stop being able to feel it, recognize it, or trust it.
In this episode, I’ll break down:
- Why so many people lose connection to their hunger signals after years of dieting, emotional eating, and shame
- How your brain’s reticular activating system (RAS) is filtering out the signals your body’s been trying to send you
- What it means to become both the scientist and the test subject in your own transformation
- How to re-learn hunger like a forgotten language—and why it’s the skill you need if you’re serious about becoming thin
If you’ve ever felt confused about your hunger…
If you’ve ever wondered why you eat when you do…
Or if you’ve been trying to follow someone else’s meal plan and it just keeps falling apart…
This episode is going to give you the clarity you’ve been missing.

In this powerful follow-up to the rebrand, Chris Terrell takes you deeper into the mindset behind Becoming Thin. This episode confronts the emotional weight behind the word thin, challenges you to stop running from your goals, and invites you to redefine transformation on your own terms.
Chris introduces The Core Four Goals—to become Thin, Healthy, Happy, and In Shape—and explains why chasing only thinness, fitness, or health isn’t enough. You’ll hear raw truth, practical mindset shifts, and a call to reclaim the word thin the same way other communities have reclaimed language once used to hurt them.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why losing weight doesn’t automatically make you happy
- How emotional weight keeps people stuck more than physical weight
- Why you’re not broken—you’re conditioned (and conditioning can be changed)
- How to define thin, healthy, happy, and in shape on your terms
- What it means to outgrow your old self—and why it’s essential
- The reason diets fail and mindset-first transformation lasts
- How to lean into discomfort, fear, and identity shifts to create permanent change

I Rebranded! Now Let’s Talk About the Word ‘Thin’ (201)
Join the “Becoming Thin Facebook Community”
Yes—the name changed. And if it stirred something inside you, then this episode is for you.
In this kickoff episode, Chris Terrell speaks directly to the resistance that many people feel around the word thin, and why that resistance is often the very thing holding them back from finally becoming who they’re meant to be.
He shares his personal story—from the death of his father, to leaving his religion, to finally admitting to himself that he wanted to become thin. Not someone else’s version—his own.
You’ll also learn:
• Why the word thin is a mirror, not a weapon
• What it means to confront the beliefs keeping you stuck
• Why resistance often dresses up as virtue
• And how to shift your identity through the Core Four goals: Thin, Healthy, Happy, and In Shape
This isn’t just a podcast. It’s a reckoning.
And it’s for those ready to redefine what’s possible.

Breaking the Language of Self-Sabotage in Weight Loss
Ready to finally shift your mindset around weight loss?
Join the waitlist for The Guild and become the champion of your own story.
Your words create your world—especially when it comes to weight loss. In this eye-opening episode, Chris dives deep into the subtle power of language and reveals how the words you habitually use shape your beliefs, actions, and ultimately, your body.
Have you ever felt trapped by statements like, “I always fail,” “I just can’t lose weight,” or “I always give up after a few weeks”? Chris explains how such language creates a self-fulfilling prophecy, where your brain—driven by a relentless desire to be right—actually works against you, sabotaging your progress.
By changing your words, you can shift your mindset, rewrite your internal beliefs, and finally break free from the cycle of repeated dieting failures.
Remember: You can’t outperform your self-image, and your self-image is built entirely from your language.
Listen in and learn how to speak success into existence—and transform your weight loss journey forever.

The Power of Mindset in the Face of Chronic Illness | Feat: Evelyn Miller
- Join The Guild -
Life can change in an instant, and when it does, how do you keep going? In this deeply personal episode, I sit down with my sister, Evelyn, to talk about her journey with Multiple Sclerosis (MS)—a diagnosis that turned her world upside down.
We dive into the mental and emotional battles that come with life-altering challenges, the process of grieving the life you once had, and the power of acceptance. Evelyn shares how she had to redefine success, let go of rigid goals, and find new ways to move forward when her body no longer allowed her to live the way she used to.
If you’ve ever faced a setback—whether it’s illness, weight struggles, or any unexpected life change—this episode is for you. We talk about:
✔️ How to adapt when life doesn’t go as planned
✔️ Why comparison is the thief of joy—and how to let it go
✔️ The importance of surrounding yourself with only supportive people
✔️ How shifting your mindset can help you find peace, even in the hardest moments
✔️ Why small wins matter more than you think
This episode is a powerful reminder that even when life throws a curveball, you can still take control of your mindset and keep moving forward.

Ever catch yourself doing the same self-sabotaging behaviors over and over again—like emotional eating, stress snacking, or wasting hours on the couch instead of taking action? In this episode, I break down the four stages of awareness that will help you recognize and stop these destructive patterns before they take over.
You’ll learn:
- Why you keep repeating the same behaviors (even when you don’t want to).
- How to move from retroactive awareness (realizing after the fact) to mastery (stopping it before it starts).
- The power of pattern interruption—and why small, intentional changes can break lifelong habits.
- Simple techniques, including journaling, thought-challenging, and environment shifts, to rewire your brain for success.
This episode isn’t just about weight loss—it’s about regaining control over your mind and your life. If you’re ready to stop getting in your own way and start seeing real change, this is the episode for you.
