Your family and friends don’t want you to lose weight. And it can be one of the most defeating experiences when they try to sabotage your efforts. It feels like you’re being betrayed, and then if you try to stand up for yourself, it feels like you’re being rejected. And then so many women end up just caving to the pressure, and then blame their loved ones when they quit their diet. So why does this happen?

Together, we will unpack:

• The 3 hidden psychological reasons why your family and friends sabotage your weight loss (it’s deeper than you think).
• How sabotage can be either innocent or malicious, and what this distinction actually means. 
• Why your transformation triggers other people, and what that means for you.
• Why food is still the glue in many relationships, and what to do when breaking that bond feels like rejection.
• 3 ways to hold strong when people test your boundaries, especially when you normally give in.
