Ep 18: So you wanna lose weight?


Listen Later

“But what if I really need to lose weight?”

Most of the clients that come to me wouldn't be mad if they just HAPPENED to lose weight some.Or they will outright say, "I really want to lose X pounds."

Some are hesitant to tell me this because they feel like it is "the wrong thing to say."There is never a "wrong" thing to say.The fact that you would want to lose weight isn't surprising at all considering the culture that we live in.

We are all fighting our own battle with fatphobia and weight discrimination.You wanting to lose weight doesn't make you bad or a failure and it isn't something you need to be ashamed of.

The part I want to open your eyes to and really get clear about is the HOW?
How to you plan to lose weight?
What would you do different?

Often it’s “I’d exercise more , I’d eat a few more vegetables, I’d take better care of myself”
Ok, honestly it’s usually a bit more extreme and harsh which is why it’s not sustainable.

When you reach the point of “this is enough, I MUST lose weight!!” You think you need a plan as intense as the hate for your body. 

So you reach for something extreme.
And it works...for a month or two or even 6, but you inevitably end up where you started or worse.

The actual food plays about a 4% role in this work.

If you are someone who wants to lose weight, you know diets don't work but also feel lost as to what your next step should even be, Ep 18: ‘so you wanna lose weight’ is for you!
