This episode is so chock full of information, I don't even know where to start!

In this episode I interviewed my own weight loss coach that helped me lose 25 stubborn pounds and keep them off.  As much as the weight loss was amazing, what's more amazing are the other changes I made to my mindset.

In this episode you will learn all about what it takes to create lasting weight loss.  You'll learn about terms like "insulin resistance," the true things that happen from the processed foods we eat, the real cause of weight gain, how to deal with urges and cravings, and all about what causes the dreaded "plateau" in weight loss that has derailed our progress countless times.

Laura de Sans is a weight loss phycisian and mindset coach.  After 15 yrs of practicing medicine she saw a lot of patients struggling to lose weight permenently.  Classic diets treat being overweight as a symptom and that's why the solutions only work temporarily.  In order to get to the root cause of the weight you need to understand why a person overeats.

Laura found that people tend to over eat for one or more of the following three reasons...

1) over hunger (a hormonal imbalance)

2)over desire (your brain gives more importance to food than it has)

3)emotional eating (using food to neutralize problems)

Luckily, all of these causes are fixable!  This opens up a whole new paradigm in the weight loss industry, work on a deeper level where weight loss is the byproduct.

"A lighter body starts with a lighter mind."

If I had a dollar for everytime someone shared with me that they were in a rut...

This is such a common issue and let me tell you it is completely normal!  Life has it's ups and downs, that's what makes it interesting!  The problem is when we feel stuck in the downs and don't have a great plan to get out.  It's not easy to just "snap out of it" without a plan because we're operating from a place of negative emotions.  

In this episode you will learn 5 simple steps to get yourself out of a rut (or a slump).  I am 100% certain this process helps and that if you take the steps that you will see improvement... I don't always give my 100% guarantee so trust that this is the real deal.
