Do you want to lose weight? If so, you are not alone. I was there for many years along with millions of other women just like you. The truth is 91% of women are unhappy about their body and seek weight loss as a solution. For most of us in this community, this desire to be “normal weight” has gone one of two ways: we did lose weight at some point but it didn’t “stick” OR we haven’t yet attempted to lose weight because we are so afraid of failure and change.
Why is it that we can’t do what we deeply desire?

The act of dieting is the greater predictor of weight gain. Most of us know diets have failed us and continue to fail us. The older we get, the worse it gets… it’s not just failing us physically on the scale but also emotionally and mentally.

We want to be confident and healthy but we know diets don’t work… but we feel we have no other choice. Right??

This time next year… 2019 is going to be the best year of my life. I know this is true. Each year is always better than the last. I keep evolving and working on myself. My goals keep getting bigger. My heart keeps getting bigger. My clients’ lives keep getting bigger. In December, in the Academy, we write our goals for the year. But we do it differently than anyone else. We choose how we want to feel. We chase our Desired Feelings.

167-UnDiet 2019: How to Get Results: 5 Obstacles to Avoid
All of us have goals. Goals like getting married or maybe having children. Taking the next step up in our career or for some, having more energy.

“I get off track very easily and difficult to get back on track. Finding a way to be motivated every day is hard. What should I do?
That’s one of the top 3 questions I get on open forums. Along with how to be consistent and how can I lose weight (I never answer this one anymore!).
Maintaining motivation is a struggle for many as it was for me and is still when it comes to exercise.
Here’s the secret… Motivation is not something you have or don’t have. It’s something you cultivate via your intention.
165-Undiet 2019: Body Acceptance: The Must-Have to Make Peace with Food
We think that we can delay accepting our body until we get our relationship to food OK.

163-Smart Women Don’t Diet… and What They Do Instead
Smart women don’t diet… they do THIS instead.
After 27 years of dieting, I’m clear on one thing… diets don’t work.

We think that a “thin” body is going to unlock our happiness, our acceptance, our joy.
And 95% of all dieters regain their all weight within 1-5 years.

162-All or Nothing Mindset Trap
Do you say things like “I’m on track”, “I’m having a good or bad day” and the ultimate “on and off the wagon”?
Absolutist thinking is one of the most common denominators in our Going Beyond The Food community. It’s the source of many emotional eating loops, overeating weekends and restricted food binges.
The truth is the all or nothing mindset is a negative thought process also known as cognitive distortion. Everything- from food to your views of yourself to professional life– is divided into black or white terms. Everything is either success or failure.
