What are the upsides and downsides of 'losing weight'?

Sometimes the upsides of staying where we are outweigh the upsides of getting to our goal so the questions in this video are designed to help uncover anything that may be sabotaging your results.

In this video I talk about how sometimes we have a hidden agenda that keeps us from making the changes we desire--like 'losing weight' (or, as I prefer to say 'getting lean'). And that could be that it is safer or better for us to stay where we are because the upsides of staying where we are outweigh the upsides of accomplishing our goal. The same goes for the downsides of accomplishing our goal outweighing the downsides of staying where you are. If you are stuck then there is a good chance you are getting more from being where you are than getting to your goal would provide.
