Because that's why you're stuck in a circle of failures
in your weight loss and body transformation goals. Because it's not about nifty formulas, or the perfect macros or the fasting hours. Those things are cool and are helpful, but they're merely the icing on the cake.
If you're finally sick and tired of not seeing results, when you truly want to stop living where you're at...
If you are truly ready to move into
where you want to live, in a healthy, shapely, lean body that you love, not detest, that makes you proud, not sad...
...where you can walk around in clothes that you can now fit in to,
walking strong and proud...
...not feeling anxious about going out for dinner...
Then you know you are ready for real change. But it requires a different approach, one that coaxes the body, not pushes it into a new place.
See, as we age, turning that body around can get harder because the body gets set in its path, it gets comfortable carrying that weight around, and it really doesn't like change (same with your thought habits, those get ingrained with age too).
So you have to work differently.
"Coax the body and it responds. Force the body and it rebels."
Right now, millions of people are
forcing their bodies with a New Years Resolution program that likely is pushing their bodies into a place where it simply won't sustain the change.
And that is why the stat remains the
same: 95% of all people who embark on a weight loss / body transformation program will lose the results - and gain even more weight - in 6-18 months.
And the more diets you have done, the
faster the loss.
It's just how the body is made. It's smart. It's not just flesh and blood.
It has a built in thermostat that wants to regulate things the way IT wants, to keep it happy, comfortable and, well, alive..
And this has nothing to do with what YOU want for it.
So you have to work WITH the body. And being January, the start of a new year, most people are NOT working with their body.
See, the comfort zone
is always there, pulling you back in.
Lately, I've been doing coaching calls with women who are filled up with information. Because this is the time of year where they take to Google, to learn all there is to learn about the body, weight loss,
etc.
So why aren't millions and millions of people getting lean and thin? In fact, we have more information than ever, but we are getting unhealthier as a nation every
year.
Because it's not about not having access to information (and all the gunk that comes with it!)
Information is not transformation. Full stop.
But many think it is, because that's what we're taught. And the 'info junkies' are the hardest to coach because they just don't want to let go of that need for control, info, 'I can do this myself' type of
thinking.
Cool...if you can, and it is sustainable with ease and joy, for the next 30 years, then you have found something that works. But really, it's not about the info that you fell
upon...it's about YOU. YOU made the shift.
And that is what coaching is all about. Because to craft a program with proper food and movement strategies is pretty straight forward, once we
learn about the client's metabolism, lifestyle, restrictions and such.
It's making things a habit that matters the most. And how do you do that? How do you stop the self
sabotage?
With a cognitive restructuring. And what we start with is a brain detox called Getting the Junk Out, a way to bring the unconscious beliefs to the surface, and purge them
out. THEN we can insert powerful, engaging beliefs and habits to put clients on a new path to absolute freedom and ease...the fitness and food stuff now sticks! The need for 'motivation' or 'willpower' is no longer, because they have made that 'switch' in their brain.
It's the best part of my work!
If you're interested to see how this works, book a call. I can 'see' what's really at work and we can create a strategy to uproot the old and insert new, empowering beliefs
that stick! I promise you, it will most certainly be the most interesting and eye opening 45 minutes you will have spent in a long time! This I guarantee.!
