Last week my client,, (I’ll call Sally) told me the stress she used to feel came from knowing she wasn’t doing right by herself.
She spent more than 50 years believing that her best life would begin once she lost the weight.
She was an emotional eater and yo-yo dieter her entire life. She spent her life at war with her body.
Sally built a successful, meaningful career, fulfilled her commitments, contributed to her community and invested deeply in the people she loved. She knew how to work hard and take care of others, but the one person she consistently failed was herself.
She had become trapped in a cycle that revolved around food, her weight and her body. So much of her energy went into thinking about what she would eat, regretting what she had eaten and searching for the next diet strategy that she believed would change her life.
Every diet, every Monday morning promise, every summer, and every number on the scale carried the hope that “this” would be the time everything changed.
She kept waiting for the day that she would finally feel healthy, confident, worthy and free.
It wasn’t until recently that she realized...
…that day never came because she was chasing the number on the scale instead of pursuing ‘freedom’.
Fast forward, in just under 6 months, Sally is down over 30lbs.
But here’s the part thats important that you know.
When Sally finally decided to call me, she was searching for ‘freedom’ more than the weight loss.
Sally shared that she realized that life wasn’t waiting for her, and that it was time to step into the identity of the woman she had always hoped she could be.
Sally has learned about:
*Growth Mindset
*The Dieters Mindset
*Leading her life
*Self-Compassion
*Better Self-talk
*Having a Strong WHY
*Mindful Awareness Practices.
This is the foundation that is allowing Sally to become that new woman, and what helped her to lose the 30lbs. Sally is not on a diet.
If this hits home, I invite you to join me on July 13th at the Beyond The Food 5-Day workshop where I will be teaching women how to choose themselves first.
If food has been running your life for more years than you care to count, this workshop will teach you what you need to shift to become the woman who stops being at war with her body and stops putting her life on hold “until”.
Registration closes on July 12th. If you’re ready to get to the other side of your battle with food and yourself, you can grab your seat HERE-->www.beyondthefoodlive.com
