It’s almost guaranteed that a big transformation will take you longer than you expect it to.

What you really need to know is that fat loss and fat gain are both dependent on energy balance. You don’t have 50+ lbs of a positive energy balance to cause fat gain in a few short days, so stop expecting to lose it that fast.

The entire process, gain or loss, is scientifically pretty slow. But it is worth it.

“So you know, I’m putting together a brand-new program starting Feb 21. This is specifically for moms/ women who want to lose 10 lbs in 60 days without having to hit the gym. It’s a remote program, so you can join from anywhere in the world.

I’m looking for 5 to test it out at a HUGE DISCOUNT, help me work out the kinks, and get amazing results that I can use as a case study. If that’s you, comment ‘tell me more’ below and I’ll message you with the details.”

I know some of you might want to lose weight and that’s okay.
But let’s get real for a minute - why do you really want to lose weight? No one puts “lose weight” on their resolution list every January just for the heck of it.
Let’s find the real reason this goal is important to you with the “5 Why Game.” For example...
Q: What is your goal?
A: To lose weight.
Q: But why?
A: Maybe it’s because you don’t have a roadmap that helps you create a plan of action
Q: Ok, but why is that important?
Then ask why again. And again. And AGAIN. Usually when you have answered “why” for the fifth time, you’ll get to the real reason why you’re here. And that’s the answer we really need to know because it’s the root of the mission. You can use the “5 Why Game” for any decision and choice you make.
No one's going to put in the work that’s required to lose weight and keep it off just for the sake of losing weight. They're going to do it because they miss going out with friends and family; they hate that they feel uncomfortable when they see their friends or family they haven’t seen in awhile; they hate feeling embarrassed when they can’t do things with family of friends at the beach or pool, cause they don’t look the same in the bathing suit.
Keep your why at the forefront of your mind when you’re pursuing weight loss. It’ll be the driving force that keeps you going when you get frustrated, tired, and ticked off at the process. And then every time the apathy monster rears its ugly head, remind yourself WHY you’re doing it in the first place.
Why is weight loss and fat loss worth it to you?

Physical Activity is not a Punishment

We need to stop negotiating for junk food aka. sweets, soft drinks, desserts, cookies, frappes, beer, etc. with exercise.
You don't have to do anything to eat and drink whatever you want.
Never punish yourself with physical activity after eating something, whatever it is.
Enjoy the foods and drinks you eat and feel good about them in the moment. Enjoy going for coffee or a few beers with friends. Food is a positive thing, especially when it involves bringing us closer together and forming human connection.
Physical activity is not a punishment.
Physical activity is done because you feel good about it, because it is fun and good for your long-term health.
Eating what we want and also exercising are two POSITIVE things we do because we feel good about it in one way or another. One doesn't have to be conditional on the other and neither should be a reward or punishment for the other.
Exercise because you feel good about it.
Treat yourself and enjoy food because you feel good about it.
Stop the self-abuse, negative self-talk, and self-inflicted punishment.
Be physically active, enjoy the foods you love often, and do what you feel good about.
