Minimizing Excuses: Death by a Thousand Nibbles

Have you ever thought, “Just one more bite,” or “This isn’t a real snack”?
And then before you know it, you’ve grazed through dinner while cooking it, tasted everything twice, and now you’re halfway into the evening wondering why you’re still hungry... or worse, why you feel stuffed but not satisfied?

Welcome back to our 6 part series on excuses called Excuses Exposed. Today we’re talking about Minimizing excuses. Minimizing excuses are slippery. They sound harmless. They dress themselves up in logic. “It’s just a little taste.” “It’s not like I’m bingeing.” “This one day won’t make a difference.”

But if you’ve ever felt like you’re working so hard and not seeing results, it might be these quiet little decisions that are clogging up the system.

Before we dive in, let’s do a quick check-in on where we are in the series.

In Episode 1, we talked about what excuses really are—mental habits, not moral failings—and we walked through the Excuse-Proofing Process: Pause, Ponder, Pivot, Practice.

In Episode 2, we got personal and unpacked emotional excuses. That’s when food becomes your therapist, your reward, your stress relief. And we looked at the real needs hiding underneath the hunger.

Today is all about the excuses that don’t scream. They whisper. 

Ready? Let’s go!
