Radio Blah Blah: Tune Out Food Noise and Reclaim Control
Have you ever caught yourself hearing that persistent inner voice whispering: “You’ve had a rough day – go on, treat yourself,” or “One more biscuit won’t hurt”? That voice – that constant loop of sabotage – is what we at LighterLife call ‘Radio Blah Blah’.
It’s the station in your head that plays the greatest hits of self-doubt, temptation, guilt, and failure on repeat. The food noise it produces can be deafening – and it’s one of the biggest barriers to sustained weight loss.
What is Radio Blah Blah?
Radio Blah Blah is your internal saboteur. It’s not just a fleeting thought; it’s a full-blown narrative, a script that undermines your confidence and keeps you stuck in unhealthy habits. For some, it’s the sound of childhood conditioning. For others, it’s the echo of failed diets and years of negative self-talk.
This ‘radio station’ might sound like:
– “You’ll never lose weight – why bother?”
– “You’ve ruined today’s diet already – may as well start again Monday.”
– “You don’t deserve success.”
These messages are powerful because they’re familiar. But familiarity doesn’t make them true.
How to Change the Channel
The first step to silencing Radio Blah Blah is awareness. Once you recognise the voice, you can challenge it. At LighterLife, we help clients shift their mental frequency – from sabotage to support, from doubt to determination.
Our Re-Creating Me programme teaches clients how to rewrite their internal scripts. Here’s how a few common ones look when transformed:
Sabotage Channel:
– “I must have some of that.”
– “Nobody will know if I eat this.”
– “I always fail at diets.”
Channel Support:
– “I’d like it, but I don’t need it.”
– “I’m not hiding – I’m healing.”
– “I’ve learnt from the past – I’m doing things differently now.”
Why Mindset Matters More Than Willpower
People often believe they need more willpower to succeed. But willpower is temporary. What really makes the difference is mindset – the beliefs and attitudes that shape our behaviour over time.
Jack Moseley, in his book *Food Noise*, argues that it’s not about being strong enough to resist cravings. It’s about being aware enough to understand them. Once you get to the root of your food noise, it becomes easier to pause, reflect, and choose differently.
Pairing Psychology with Physiology
The LighterLife programme is unique because it doesn’t just tell you what to eat – it helps you understand why you eat. By combining our TotalFast plan – a very low-calorie diet that supports rapid weight loss and appetite suppression through ketosis – with structured mindset work, we help people address the full picture.
This dual approach is key. In ketosis, your hunger naturally decreases, which gives you space to focus on your mental health. And in your weekly support group, you develop skills to rewire your self-talk and keep the food noise at bay.
Silencing the Sabotage
When you stop listening to Radio Blah Blah, you start hearing something else – your own strength, your own progress, your own potential. That quiet confidence grows louder each day you show up for yourself.
Thousands of LighterLife clients have experienced this shift. They’ve gone from daily mental battles to peaceful, empowered decisions. And they’ve learnt that tuning out food noise isn’t about perfection – it’s about progress.
