On a scale of 1-10, where do you land when it comes to believing in yourself that you can lose the weight? (1 being zero believe, 10 being you 100% believe you can)

#weightlossmotivation #weightlossjourneyinprogress #weightlossaccount #weightloss #weightlossjourney

Have you ever thought about the amount of time you spend thinking about losing weight each day?

Whether it be picking yourself apart when you get dressed in the morning…

Or wondering if anyone else has noticed you’ve gained weight…

Or thinking about your next meal, feeling guilty about what you want to eat…

Or negotiating with yourself about why you can just wait until Monday to restart?

When I was starting my 80 pound weight loss journey, it consumed me.

It was all I thought about.

From waking up, to trying on 16 different outfits before work, going back and forth in my head about if I should get my frappuccino or not, to feeling like the biggest person in my meetings at work, to going home and comforting myself with food and feeling so defeated.

I had all of these big goals and dreams, but felt like I didn’t have the brain space to focus on them because I was so worried about losing weight.

Over a decade later and I have lost the weight and kept it off, and let me tell you something…

When you take action and lose the weight, you get all that time and brain space back…plus confidence.

You start following through on what you said you would do. And THAT is how you build trust, confidence and belief in yourself that can transfer to the other aspects of your life.

Instead of worrying about your body and losing weight, you get to put that time into other things like…

Being fully present.
Going after your next goal.
Living life without being mentally weighed down.

Think about what you can accomplish and how freeing it will feel when your mind is no longer preoccupied with wanting to lose weight?

If you are ready to ditch the weight loss struggle, comment PROGRAM and I will send you all the details of my 6 month weight loss coaching program, For The Last Time, enrollment ends TODAY! This program is designed to equip you with the mindset you need to lose weight for the last time…and free up your time for good!

This time is going to be different.

This time is going to be the time where it sticks and instead of quitting like you have in the past, you decide this time you are going to face any obstacle that comes your way. No more backing down.

I know trying again isn’t easy.

Especially when you have been trying to lose the same weight, year after year, and feel like you aren’t getting anywhere.

Your belief in yourself gets shaky and you start wondering if you are just meant to be heavier and start questioning if you have what it takes to lose the weight.

In case you need to hear it today: you can do this.

You can lose the weight.
You can overcome emotional eating.
You can become consistent.
You can learn to get back on track when you stumble.
You can do this sustainably.
You can rebuild your belief in yourself.

But you have to try again.

You can’t lose the weight if you don’t try again.

So go into this time believing that this will be THE time you lose the weight.

Because it will be if you believe it will be. Instead of quitting, you will stay committed and figure out solutions so you can keep moving forward.

If you need help, I want to invite you to join you inside my program called For The Last Time. It is a 6 month program designed to help you learn how to lose weight sustainably, rebuild the belief in yourself and get to the root issues that have previously kept you stuck so you can move beyond any obstacle in your way.

Enrollment closes tomorrow.

Comment PROGRAM and I will send you more details.

This program is the answer to your weight loss struggles.

12 years ago today, I made the decision to change my life.

I will never forget the work event that changed it all for me. A work event where we were asked to write down our top 10 accomplishments and disappointments for 2012. I was embarrassed that I couldn’t think of any accomplishments, yet had a long list of disappointments.

I went home that night and studied those disappointments until I noticed a clear parallel to my lack of confidence, my health and insecurities.

You see, I had gained about 80 pounds after graduating college. I allowed excuses to rule my life and I was so uncomfortable in my own skin. I was unhealthy and winded at the slightest activity.

I had an ah-ha moment: “Whatever you aren’t CHANGING, you are CHOOSING.”.

It gave me chills and I knew in that moment, it was time. I decided to start that day and promised I wouldn’t give up. No. Matter. What.
.
Even when I didn’t see progress, I showed up.
Even when I was tired, I showed up.
Even when I had doubts, I showed up.

12 years later...and I am still showing up.

My best advice? Make sure you are choosing your life. Make sure you are making choices that align with how you want to feel. We only have one body and one life - and trust me, it is way too short to not love every second of it! You are never too old or too far gone to change.

You are one decision away from an entirely different life. Choose wisely.

I have spent the last decade helping women lose weight and I found something was missing. Programs would teach you what to eat and what to do in the gym, but never taught you how to stick with it.

I created a program that does just that called For The Last Time. It is a six month weight loss program where I will teach you everything you need to lose weight for the last time. Enrollment closes October 1st.

Comment PROGRAM and I will send you more details. I am confident I can help you lose weight for the last time.

Everyone always wants to know the THING that made me lose weight.

12 years ago, I was 215 pounds and sick and tired of my own crap.

I was sick listening to my own excuses of why I couldn’t, why it was easier for everyone else, why I was too busy and too tired.

I was sick of constantly telling myself I would start on Monday, only for Monday to come and go.

I was in a cycle of letting myself down and not following through on what I truly wanted to do.

I knew I had two choices.

Keep complaining and stay the same. Or do something.

So, I did something.

I know you want to find the secret that will help you get unstuck. You have to figure out the solution to WHY you haven’t lost the weight.

Why are you avoiding the work.
Why are you quitting?
Why are you running to food?

When you solve for that - weight loss becomes easy and you become consistent.

Diet and exercise are important, by the secret to consistency lies in the WHY.

If you avoid figuring out why, you are going to find that you repeat the same patterns each time you jump to a new diet.

You break the cycle of starting and quitting when you figure out why.

I created a six month weight loss program that solves for the WHY and it is called For The Last Time. This program is the answer to your weight loss struggles where together, we will get to the root cause of why you haven’t been able to lose weight so you can finally ditch the struggle, for the last time.

Comment PROGRAM and I will send you all the details. Enrollment closes October 1st and we kick off October 7th.
Imagine going into the New Year with 15 weeks of progress behind you and feeling confident, you are losing weight for the last time.

I can show you how.
