I'm doing everything right and I'm STILL not losing weight!
Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyy? 😫
Do you ever feel like you've totally HAD it! You're doing all the right things - you're watching what you eat, you started the diet, you're working out way more, and the scale hasn't budged. What gives!?
Well honestly there could be A LOT of reasons that why this is the case but I believe in starting with the most common and the easiest to tackle reason: you're doing too much.
"No I'm NOT" you want to argue with me! "How could I possibly be doing too much, if I don't diet and exercise I won't lose weight!" Yes, I'm familiar with this argument, I've used it myself many times.
We've been told our whole lives that eating less and working out more is the only way to lose weight. Less calories in, more calories out is the key. Would it blow your mind if told you that sometimes more calories in and LESS workouts are the key to getting your body working right and long term weight loss that will STAY off?
It's true and it's largely due to stress and cortisol. You see, a diet, no mater which one it is, is usually just a fancy form of calorie restriction. Not getting enough food puts your body under tremendous stress. Add on top of that all these new strenuous workouts you're doing now to burn calories; more stress to your body. Then add to that all the other emotional stress in your life, lack of sleep, poor hydration, use of stimulants (coffee); stress, stress STRESS! Your body under chronic stress and chronically elevated cortisol levels begins to burn itself out, your metabolism slows, you're more likely to store fat especially around the midsection, and you're more at risk for disorders and diseases of all types. Well Crap!
In this episode we're going to discuss these mechanisms, how sometimes you have to SLOW DOWN TO SPEED UP and exactly HOW you can do that.

Finally, the TRUTH about why those diets haven't worked. It's time for a Re-Boot!
If you’re a woman struggling with yo-yo dieting, you already know that it’s impossible to get lasting results when you HATE your diet. Unfortunately most women make the mistake of seeking out ANOTHER diet, hoping that will be the one, only to be disappointed again. If you don’t know how your body and mind actually work, you’ll NEVER get the results you want, and you’ll just keep spinning your wheels wasting time, money and your sanity. That’s why I’ve set up a FREE mini course - to help you recognize the beliefs and habits that keep you stuck, and ELEVATE your health skill set so you never get stuck on the diet hamster wheel again!

Ditch the Diets and Finally Make Peace with Food
If you struggle with yo-yo dieting then you know how hard it is to make any real lasting change. Unfortunately most women get stuck in the belief that being on a diet is the only way to lose weight and get healthy, and when they inevitably fail they’ve destroyed their self esteem, destroyed their relationship with food, and get stuck in a guilt/shame spiral that starts the whole process over again.
If you don’t understand how reprogram your mind that is sabotaging you, and reprogram your body for health, you’ll never make lasting progress.
That’s why I created the Healthy Mind, Healthy Body Program; to teach you how to make a real, lasting transformation in your Mind AND Body.
