to. >> working out is important. >> i just lost 20 pounds. >> the magic of having a baby and being on tape. >> how do you get there feeling like you have tried it out. abc's mara schiavocampo is here with her own inspirational. >> i start off on a january weight loss journey four years ago. and this time, i succeeded. losing a total of 90 pounds. after realizing my issues with food couldn't be helped with dieting. for me, the joy of having my first child in 2011 came with the pain of being my heaviest weight, ever, 230 pounds. i struggled with my weight my entire life. i had to view certain food as drugs. frequently binges out of control. as i share in my book, i found

to be brutally honest about my trigger foods. all flour and dairy and then complete lyly doing away -- she also realized food was her fix. >> i gained 35 pounds from binge eating. i didn't recognize my own body because i had never looked like that in my life. first, i think it's enjoyable. then eventually it's real monkey on your back. >> reporter: nadia sought treatment and dropped the pounds. for so many of us, treating binge eating is the real key to losing weight and finding prix domestic. >> if first step simply is hope and surrender. hope that's there a poeblt i might change and number two, surrendering into a plan of

treatment for a real problem. >> so, how do you know if you might have a problem with binge eating? ultimately if you think you suffer from this issue you should talk to your doctor. so often, we're told weight loss is told it's about discipline and self-control. >> you did this once with your first baby. >> you know what's been fun, is habits. bad habits make life much more difficult. good habits make it much more easier. >> you're spinning. >> every day. >> like you ginger i'm hoping to have a 25-pound baby.

>> thank you, marya. now, let's go to amy. >> all right, girls, thank you here with some advice helping you to reframe your thinking of weight loss in the new year, dr. jennifer ashson. how you thinknk about things has a huge impact. >> no question, we heard from mara, so often, it's told your will power and discipline, that's not true. i lookt things through a medical lens. we want to look good but it's what's going on inside your body. you want to focus on your priorities, perspective and plan. if you do that and really focus on the inside-out, everything else will fall into place. >> but first priority. >> priority. when you think about it as a pyramid, yes, we care about what everybody sees.

fitness and on top of it is the mirror mirrorball. we do have that element of vanity, yeah, if you do all these things, what see on the outside will look gogo. >> the next "p" is perspective. >> this is so important. it's very easy to tend on focus through. perspective. so look at this animation. if you imagine you're on the weight loss road or any kind of health changes you're trying to make, you feel alone, there are tons of people on that path also, it's really a process not just about the product. so, when you realize you're not alone i think it gives you that perspective. >> and finally, you got to have a plan. >> nothing works without a plan. and the body will follow the mind. when you're thinking about making these changes, set a meaningful goal. not i want to be a size whatever in my jeans.

cholesterol to drop six, ten points. anticipate obstacles, that's real life. don't let it derail you. lastly, you want to anticipate all of those things but be patient with yourself at the same time. this truly is about your inner health. >> well said. >> thank you. >> inspiring all. so, for so many of us this time of year is about family, friends and faith. i sat down with pastor joel osteen to get his perspective. >> thank you. it's a new year new beginning. how can you get your year off to the best possible start. one of america's best preachers, dr. joel ostten is here to help us make the most of 2016, always good to be in your presence and see you, joel. >> thank you, robin. >> it's a new year, you get to

>> it's a great time to let go of the old. i have learned, robin if you don't let go of the disappointments you won't receive the new things god has in store. we all look back, you got to clean the slate and god will give you a new beginning and there are a lot of things going on in the world. one of your recent messages, i appreciated you saying, the economy is up you're up. down. don't be that way. >> i found if you start off the day grateful, you find some reason to be alive. if you start the day off right, the new year off right, a better year for you. >> how often should parents talk

going on in the world anan to remain hopeful in the new year? >> yeah, i think we have to go back to explaining to kids sometimes it's hard with the shootings and tragedies. it's important to explain that god gives us all a choice. we got to be good, be examples of love and kindness, not go to the negativity and the bitterness. >> it's been wonderful to see families settle celebrating this season and so excited but i want to speak to those people who say, you know what, robin and joel, it's not a fun time for me. i miss my family and some people are very low as they start the new year coming out of the seon, what do you say to those people? >> one thing is important, robin, if you're lonely, gone through loss, it's important to not sit at home by yourself, go

else. if you get outside of your yourself and not just think my problems, my loneliness, my hurts, i think that pulls you down more. encourage someone to go out even if it's just opening a door for a stranger or baking a pie. >> something that you always have suggested, you said be concrete with what you want and put it up -- when i'm getting ready in the morning, those positive words are staring back at me. >> put up those positive affirmations around your house. i am blessed, i am strong. i'm grateful to be alive. sometimes that will remind us that every day is a gift from god. we can never get this day back, never get this new year back. >> to see those words to actually see them and something about it takes over. >> something in the inside of you.

it's more than that. it's part of your faith. if you're hearing i'm blessed, i'm strong, i'm creative. you start gravitating toward that way. >> in 2016 better get ready for the suddenly. >> in one second, god can turn anything around. just one touch of god's favor. just suddenly. >> suddenly i am. i am. you can tell i kind of read your books. hey, joel, always a blessing to see you and especially on this day as we start a new year and have new hopes and new dreams. thank you very much. >> my pleasure. happy new year to you and all of the "good morning america" viewers. thank you so much, robin. time now for some "pop news." ladies, the first edition of 2016, again, it's only day one
