Why It’s Not Working

I just want to eat and enjoy my food, but darnit, I really want to lose weight too! Why why why is this so hard?

Sound familiar?

I know how that frustration feels.

I remember feeling like I was putting in soooo much effort and yielding a very slow result.

But here's the thing…

I was putting in a lot of effort THINKING about losing weight, but not DOING enough to give me a result.

Don't get me wrong…

I was doing stuff.

Stuff like…

• Spending time looking online trying to figure out what other people were doing to lose weight.

• Being annoyed when my portion-controlled meal was gone and I was still hungry.

• Sitting in the car outside the gym trying to make myself go in instead of going back home.

• Judging myself for what I ate over the weekend.

It felt like I was doing a lot…

…but I was spending a whole lotta energy THINKING about what I SHOULD be doing, but not doing enough to actually lose weight.

There is a substantial difference.

All that worry and thinking is exhausting.

Of course, I was frustrated.

And what does one do when one is frustrated?

Eat a little of this.

Eat a little of that.

You see where this is going, right?

Looking back, I can see, I was ill-equipped to lose the weight I wanted.

I didn't know how to lose more than 7 pounds at a time.

I didn't know how to stop being frustrated.

I didn't know how to stop using food and alcohol to deal with my frustration.

I didn't know what to do, so I kept doing the same thing.

I see so many women suffer silently about their weight struggles.

They think something is wrong with them, so they can't lose weight.

It's not you…there is nothing wrong with you.

You haven't yet learned how to get off of the weight loss struggle bus.

That's where I come in.

I will teach you what I had to figure out on my own.

I will teach you how to Stop. Dieting. Forever.
