Ep # 42: Ending a Lifelong Struggle with Weight and Dieting
Manage episode 397554008 series 3550384
I was at one of the lowest points in my entire life when I found my first coach.
I was desperately trying diet after diet and failing miserably at each and every one.
I was struggling with postpartum depression and anxiety, I was more stressed out and overwhelmed than ever, and my weight had reached an all-time high.
I couldn’t stop overeating.
I couldn’t manage my life or my emotions without food.
I was trying so hard to make restrictive diets work for me, but I would always end up blowing my progress before long.
After a lifetime of dieting and feeling at war with my body (a process that began when I was in the fourth grade!) I felt completely out of control and ready to just give up.
But - hear me when I say this - weight loss and mindset coaching changed my life.
I’m SO lucky that I met my first coach, and I’m so grateful that I had the courage to stop dieting and give coaching a try.
I didn’t know it at the time, but I was about to transform my life…
I was about to lose 35 pounds (and keep it off for 5 years and counting!)
I was about to learn the tools that would free me from a lifetime of battling my weight and suffering through restrictive diets.
I was about to gain SO much confidence. Confidence that I would finally reach my goal (without the suffering and misery of dieting), the confidence that I would effortlessly maintain my weight loss for life, and the absolute relief of knowing that I would never have to battle my body or even think about weight loss again - I could finally use that precious mental energy on something more important.
I could finally stop worrying about my weight and fully enjoy my life.
I’m so grateful that I was introduced to coaching. This is so much more than a diet. This is a transformation. The experience of losing weight through coaching was so powerful, that I couldn’t keep it to myself.
On today's episode, I'm sharing my history with chronic dieting and how I was able to turn it all around and lose weight for the last time through coaching and mindset work.
