Weight Loss that Lasts

Have you ever felt like you’ve been cursed with a “slow metabolism?”

Trust me, I know that feeling!

For years, I swore up and down that anything I ate made me gain weight. It didn’t matter if it was a whole cake or a piece of lettuce. And I was convinced that my “sluggish metabolism” of mine was to blame for ALL of it.  

I believed that I just needed to burn calories faster, and the weight would finally drop off. And at the time, I was up for anybody’s metabolism-boosting strategy.

So I tried them ALL.

We’re talking the thermogenic pills, the rockstar workouts, the crazy cyclical diets. You name it, I tried it.

But the harder I tried to rev things up, the more my weight-loss efforts stalled. In fact, I was gaining weight despite doing everything “right!”

I was confused as to why did all the expert advice fail? And how was I going to get the engine running again so that I could finally have lasting weight loss success?

For me, it came down to understanding how the body works–and how it DOESN’T work.

I found out the hard way that pushing your body to speed up ultimately brings your weight loss to a dead halt.

I learned that if you want to rev up your metabolism, get your energy flowing, and let go of unwanted weight for good, you need another plan.

And contrary to popular belief, getting your metabolism up and running is not about stimulating supplements or back-breaking workouts.

Today I’m sharing 3 reasons why the usual metabolism-boosting tricks don’t work–and I’m also going to share what genuinely will rev up your calorie and fat-burning mojo!

My counterintuitive approach might surprise you–but it will also help you rev up your weight loss a lot more effectively than the pop-culture advice will. So let’s jump right in!

–

–

Let’s start with what’s wrong with the current picture.

When you see something out there that claims it’ll “speed up your metabolism,” what it really does is speed up your BODY.

We’re talking about strategies like jacking yourself up on thermogenic pills. Or spending hours at the gym doing arduous workouts.

If your body was a car, that might work. But a living, breathing system is a lot more complex than a mere machine.

When you make immediate demands on your body to speed up, it responds the only way it knows how: by going into full-on stress mode.

And I bet you’ve heard me say it before–stress is one of the biggest blocks to weight loss.

So it’s a Catch-22. The harder you try to speed up your body, the more stressed your system becomes. And your body will fight back by bringing your metabolism to a screeching halt.

Why does stressing yourself out slow your metabolism down? Here are the top three things that go wrong when you push your body to speed up.

Reason #1: Stress slows EVERYTHING down. When you’re in stress-mode, all of your body systems take a hit, including your digestion. And when you can’t digest your food, your body doesn’t get the nutrients it needs.

And if your nutritional needs aren’t met, your body searches elsewhere for what it needs. That can translate into cravings. And maybe even trigger binges.

Which ultimately leads to weight gain instead of the coveted weight loss.

Reason #2: Stress makes you cling to fat (instead of burning it). When your body is under duress, fat becomes it’s emergency fuel supply. So harder you push yourself, the more stressed your body becomes. And it fights back by holding onto fat tooth and nail.

And what’s more, stress makes it nearly impossible for your body to build muscle. It causes muscle mass to decrease while making your body cling for dear life to fat reserves.

That’s the exact opposite of what every bottle of thermogenic pills promises, right?

Reason #3: Stress disconnects you from your center–which leads to even more stress. Excessive stress causes knee-jerk responses in your body. And one of the most detrimental side effects of stress is that feeling of disconnection between your mind, body, and spirit.

Why does that matter for weight loss and metabolism?

Because when you feel disconnected, you’re less likely to make conscious and loving decisions. You feel more up in your head, being ruled more by your fear-based ego than your heart.

And when fear is in control, it can set off binge and emotional eating like dynamite. And I’m sure you know where that path takes you…

More out-of-control eating ensues. And more weight gain follows.

This is what happens when you try to jack up your metabolic rate by forcing your body to speed up. And unfortunately, your body responds by shutting down.

So what is the solution?

I’ve shown you how speeding up your body has a rebound effect. But what would happen if you tried the opposite approach? In other words, what if you decided to speed up your metabolism by slowing down?

I know that sounds a little bit out there. But stay with me and I’ll show you why slowing your body down is the fast track to a speedier metabolism!

When I say “slow down,” I mean in all the ways.

I’m talking about less stress and more presence not just in your body, but also in your LIFE.

Start by being present at your meals. Notice what you’re eating, and savor each bite. Eat in a way that doesn’t feel frantic or out-of-control.

And then, take the time to make slowing down a way of life.

By that, I mean using simple practices to be more present throughout your day. Things like taking time out of every hour for an affirmation, a nice deep breath, or just a moment to pause.

So many of us operate on autopilot. I’m inviting you to take a moment to pay attention to your life again.

I know that finding presence and peace is a tall order in this modern society. These days, stress seems to attack us from every corner, from our bosses to our phones. The fast-pace of life itself eventually takes its toll on your body.

And adding even more stress by using the usual tricks to speed up your metabolism will ultimately stall your weight loss.

And let’s be real–who wants MORE stress in their life in any way, shape, or form anyway?

So if you want to speed up your weight loss–and start living a more peaceful life, for that matter–start by making a conscious effort to slow down.

That doesn’t mean becoming lazy or dismissive. It doesn’t mean stop moving.

All it means is bringing a little bit of presence to your day.

It means taking the time to enjoy your meals.

It means giving your body a chance to receive all the nutritional goodness in your food.

It means pausing throughout your day for a few deep breaths and mini-breaks.

Your body knows how to function optimally. You don’t need to fight or force it to be its best.

All you need to do is give your body the support that it needs so that it can support you right back.

If you implement these ideas, you’ll see major shifts. And not just with your weight loss results, but also in your relationship with your body and your food. (Not to mention your overall peace and happiness!)

Of course, this isn’t the ordinary advice you get when you google “how to speed up your metabolism!” So if it sounds a little far-fetched or difficult to implement, I get that.

That’s why I created this special gift to help you turn these counterintuitive tips into weight-loss success!

Let me show you how to optimize your metabolism without crazy thermogenic pills or backbreaking workouts. You deserve to be free from the nasty side effects of the usual “boost your metabolism” strategies (like yo-yo dieting and binge eating).

In case you didn’t know, carbohydrates are an explosive topic in the world of diet and exercise.

In weight loss world, carbs have become public enemy number one. If you don’t think so, tell someone that you “struggle with your weight.”

I bet that no matter who you ask, from the million-dollar guru to Susie and Sara at the gym, the answer will be “cut your carbs.”

Now, I’m going to go out on a limb and say something here. And Keto nation is NOT going to like it. But here goes…

Carbs are NOT the enemy.

Yes, you read that correctly. “Evil carbohydrates” aren’t the reason that you lose control with food.

I’ve helped thousands of women break free from binge and emotional eating, and I’ve also healed my own struggle. Through it all I’ve discovered that that no single macronutrient is responsible for weight loss failure (or success).

Not even the much-feared carbohydrates!

The truth is that you need a balance of all macronutrients to thrive, including carbs.

I eat carbs at every meal without fear. I give my body the nourishment, support, and love that it needs every day – carbs included.

My weight has been stabilized for years.

I don’t have intense cravings. I feel satiated. Food is easy.

And you know what’s crazy, all those years of fighting carbs thinking they were the enemy – adding them in brought more balance.

Watch the video below to get the real scoop on carbs and learn how they work with your weight loss…

If you’re here right now, you’ve probably tried all the things to lose weight. And if you’re anything like I was back in the day, that includes just about every diet known to mankind.  

But that inconvenient truth of weight loss always showed up at the end of the day…

Diets don’t work. And counting on an eating plan alone to get results will leave you doubly disappointed.

Focusing only on what you eat and hoping to get to your ideal weight doesn’t address the heart of the problem. In fact, it adds fuel to the fire.  

Diets of all kinds tend to trigger what I call “survival mode.” And it’s the quickest way to shut down even the best efforts to release weight.

What is survival mode, exactly? It’s a by-product of the cornerstone of all diets and eating plans: restriction.

Any kind of dietary restriction, be it mental or emotional, can trigger your brain and your body into a state of deprivation. The more you restrict what you eat, the more you end up fixating on the food you’re not allowing yourself to eat. (And eventually eating said food, and often in large quantities…)

That’s what happens when you restrict a food group. ANY food group. And yet the single most common weight loss solution these days is cutting carbs.

Where did all this carbohydrate obsession come from (when just a few decades ago, fat was the ultimate weight-loss enemy)?

A lot of the anti-carb attitude comes from the Atkins diet, the hallmark high-fat, high-protein, low-carb eating plan. Then there’s the Keto diet rage of the last few years.

But let’s be real–do these diets really work long-term? Are they good for your mind, body, and spirit combined?

I’m going to bust a few dietary myths and make case for why carbs aren’t as evil as the world seems to think. I’ll also show you how to add carbs into your life without triggering weight gain, blood sugar spikes, and all the things that you don’t want!

Now, let’s talk about how the carb-cutting myth became the Holy Grail of weight loss in the first place.

First off, let’s talk about what happens in your body when you eat carbohydrates.

When your body digests carbohydrates, it requires a fair amount of water to assist in the process. That means that when you ingest high-carb foods–especially if you have been off them for awhile–your body will retain that extra water, at least for a short time.  

The number on the scale goes up. You feel bloated. And right away, you blame the change on the pasta and the potatoes.

That’s what is know as “water weight gain.”

On the flip side, if you eliminate all carbohydrates, the opposite happens: you flush out a large amount of water quickly. And you see a fast drop on the scale.

So you cut out the carbs, the scale says you’ve lost 10 pounds, and victory is yours. Low-carb diets must be magical, right?

But then, after you drop that initial five to 10 pounds of water, all it takes is a bit of salty food to bring it all right back.

Even worse, you just lost a little bit of water, not fat. So it’s not only unsustainable weight loss but also it’s not even the kind of weight that you want to lose!

The second part of the no-carb weight loss myth is all about insulin.

Insulin is a hormone that regulates blood sugar. It also plays a part in energy storage. Which of course translates into fat storage. So naturally, insulin has been a player in the weight loss battle for some time.

The theory is that if you can keep your blood sugar stable, you won’t need the rush of insulin. And if your body isn’t kicking out insulin, you won’t store any fat. Easy peasy, right?

Now, I don’t claim to be a doctor. If you have a medical condition like diabetes, you know how significant insulin regulation is. And it’s important to follow the advice of your health care provider.

But if your body functions in a reasonably normal way, the goal should be a balance. That is, maintaining a healthy blood sugar and insulin levels rather than shutting them both down completely.

Now, after 48 hours on the Keto diet, you’re bound to have a burst of carbohydrate-free energy. You’ll probably feel energized, amazing, and totally sold on the low-carb life.

But honestly, I’ve never seen anyone sustain a hardcore low-carb plan long enough to call it a long-term success.

In fact, most people on the low-to-no-carb train have cheat days and off days. And with them come inevitable blood sugar and water weight hangovers.

You might feel good for a week or a month on a low-carb regimen. Maybe you’ll even get mind-boggling results for a while.

But over time, forbidding anything translates into nothing but food-based fear. And before you know it, the food crazies are back.

How great would it be to return to some common sense balance in your diet?

If you include a combination of nourishing carbs, proteins, and fats, you won’t have massive blood sugar fluctuations. Excessive insulin and fat storage won’t be a concern.

In fact, you’ll feel satiated, grounded, and empowered.

We’re talking fewer cravings and more balance. More peace and ease with your food. No more excessive restrictions all week just to turn around and gorge on the weekends.

And here’s even more science-based evidence in defense of dietary carbs…

Carb-based foods are a dietary staple in many cultures around the world. The Mediterranean diet, for example, is heavy on carbohydrates. Many people are successful with a vegan diet, another carbohydrate-rich regimen.

And the most striking example is the island of Okinawa in Japan.

The Okinawa diet consists of roughly 85 to 90% white rice and carbohydrates. And believe it or not, this area has some of the lowest obesity rates and diet-related health conditions in the world. (Not to mention one of the largest populations of centenarians–people who live to be 100+–on the planet.)

Am I saying that you need to bring back all the carbs and forget about proteins and fats? Not necessarily. What I am saying is that balance is key–and knowing yourself is the ultimate answer.

Just because a diet has been around for 40 years doesn’t mean it’ll work for you. Just because your workout buddy dropped 20 pounds in two weeks on the Keto diet doesn’t mean you have to follow her lead.

And just because I’m telling you right now to eat more carbs doesn’t mean that you necessarily should, either! But if what you’ve been doing so far has ultimately triggered cravings and made you feel out of control, it’s not working for you. And you deserve better than that!

You can live your life without the food crazies. And you can choose a sensible plan based on what you need instead of following the whims of dietary fads.

It’s about connecting with your body and going your own way–even if that means welcoming carbs back to the table!

So trust me–you can incorporate everything that your body needs despite all of the diet myths out there.

I know that this might sound pretty reckless and radical, especially after years of the low-carb craze. I admit that bringing carbohydrates back into the picture was a bold and scary move for me! But when I did, it turned out to be a giant leap toward food freedom forever.

So if you’re tired of fearing potatoes, pasta, and rice and you seek an alternative to carbohydrate hysteria, I can help!

There’s one small step you can take today to take one giant leap with your weight loss efforts.

Ready?

STOP weighing yourself.

That’s right, get rid of the scale. It’s a direct step you can take TODAY to help you free you from the stress of the weight loss battle.

Now, that might sound crazy. Or maybe even too easy. Does the scale really affect your life THAT much?

But you’re anything like I was, you’re probably nodding “YES” right now!

I know how it feels to stumble out of bed in the morning, walk across that cold bathroom floor, and see that little contraption.

It feels like it’s just waiting to tell you if you’re going to have a good day or a bad day, all based on where the blinking number lands.

The truth is that little contraption on the floor packs quite the emotional punch. The scale can either leave you feeling empowered or can completely steal your joy.

So why is that gadget such an emotional gut-punch, and what can you do to take your power back from the metal box with the blinking light?

In my own experience and in working with clients, I’ve found two possible outcomes for the daily weigh-in. Let’s break those down here.

Situation That Sets You Up for Failure #1: Suppose that you’ve started a new eating plan. You’re feeling alive in your body and empowered with your food. And you can’t wait to get on the scale and be rewarded by a “good” number.

And then you step on the scale, and the number hasn’t moved. It might’ve even gone up a by a pound or two.

Just like that, a pesky little number turns your emotions upside down. And it triggers a rebound reaction. You think you may need to up your diet game, cut out this, and stop eating that.

Of course, you can guess where that leads.

You fly straight into battle mode. It’s back to restrictive thoughts, food obsessions, and a skewed body image.

And if you’re at all susceptible to binge and emotional eating like I was, you’re right back in that trap, too.

All of which ultimately leads back to weight gain. And just because of a blinking little number from the gadget on the bathroom floor.

Then again, this scenario might be possible, too:

Situation That Sets You Up for Failure #2: So you’re rocking your current eating plan. You haven’t binged in weeks. No more cravings, you’re eating “right,” and you’re feeling fabulous.

Then you step on the scale and presto! You’ve dropped a few pounds. All your efforts are paying off, and now you have proof!

You’ve got a winning formula with the clean eating, so you roll with it. What could possibly go wrong?

But then things take an interesting turn.

That clean eating enthusiasm turns to clean eating fixation. And before you know it, it’s all about what you can and can’t eat all over again.

If that course continues, you eventually fall back into those old cravings for the forbidden food. It leads you right back into survival mode.

And the binge, emotional, or overeating you sought to get rid of is back. With a vengeance.

Pretty crazy, right? But I’m guessing that you know exactly what I’m talking about.

The scale can trigger a cascade of wild emotions. And if you’re not ready to experience those feelings without holding onto them, the scale can ruin your day.

Think The Scale Helps You Stay On Track? Think Again…

I’ve come across some arguments in favor of the scale. Some people say that regular weigh-ins help them stay in control and on track.

But in my experience, both personally and with clients, the scale triggers emotional stingers that quite frankly aren’t worth it.

Anything that alters your behavior with food or affects how you feel about your body puts you in a vulnerable place. Whether it brings on feelings of extreme success or dismal failure, the scale pushes all the emotional buttons.

Now, if you can honestly say that the number on the scale doesn’t faze you at all, fair enough.

But if you’re feeling at all vulnerable to the emotional stingers it can give, having it around does more harm than good. To your weight loss efforts, your happiness, and your sanity!

So what do you to to take back your power from that crazy contraption?

The simplest solution of all is to just get rid of it!

Grab something that you can break your scale with, and go to town. Take it out to the front yard and smash it, declaring your freedom all the way.

Or if you prefer to be a little less theatrical, just throw it away! Or ask someone you trust to get rid of it for you.

Here’s the deal. Anything that negatively affects how you feel about yourself doesn’t deserve any space in your life.  If it steals your joy, kick it out.

Because at the end of the day, the scale only tells you what your relationship to gravity is. It has nothing to do with the REAL you.

You are NOT the number on the scale. You’re so much more than that. There isn’t a bathroom scale in the world that can measure how amazing you are.

What matters is how you treat yourself. How you treat others. How you show up in the world. And what you do with this amazing life that you have!

So don’t let that cold, random piece of metal that blurts out your relationship to gravity have any real say in your life. Not. Ever.

I know that letting go of the thing that “keeps you on track” is a lot to ask. That’s why I’ve created a gift for you!

You know the drill by now with most diets and exercise programs. They’re all about what to eat and how to move. And most of them stop right there with a little “mindset” work at best.

The conventional wisdom is that fixating over what’s on your plate and following a crazy gym schedule is what you need to succeed.

And there is no shortage of information out there to tell you what to eat, how to move, and how to do it “right.”

But tell me– have diet and exercise alone ever taken you all the way?

I struggled with what to eat and how to move for about 12 years. And the more I focused on my plate and my exercise schedule, the less in control I felt.

Turns out that obsessing over every bite and every workout wasn’t “working out.” In fact, it was stealing my power, triggering binge eating, and leaving me miserable.

But then I decided to look a little bit closer at my entire being–mind, body, and spirit. And I soon discovered that when it comes to lasting weight loss, how I was feeling was just as significant as what I was eating.

There was an emotional component to weight loss…something deeper “beneath the surface” that I’d been overlooking for years.

And when I learned how my inner being and physiology worked together, I was finally on my way to food freedom.

The way you relate to the world, yourself, and food from the inside out, and how you handle your emotions, your subconscious beliefs, and your internal state is actually a huge predictor of your relationship with food – and it’s the part of the story that most of us don’t talk about.

As all of these things come into balance – something like lasting weight loss can be a byproduct for most, if there’s weight to lose to get to where your body is comfortable and at it’s happiest!

Watch the video below where I share the deeper components of a normal easy relationship with food and lasting weight loss!

3 Deeper Components to A Normal and Easy Relationship with Food and Lasting Weight Loss Success

#1 – Hiding Behind Weight or Binge Eating for Protection: Maybe you want to lose weight at all costs. You’ll follow this advice or that plan–any means will justify the end result. Or so you think…

But what if you were secretly resisting what you say you want the most?

Maybe that sounds absurd. But sit with it for a moment. What would happen if your weight loss plans succeed?

Sometimes when people lose weight, they feel themselves more exposed. We’re talking about being more vulnerable to attention, being seen, and maybe even disappointment.

For example, one thing that used to trigger nasty bouts of binging in me was a breakup. When a relationship went south, I went straight for the food.

Back then I figured that it was just everyday emotional eating. I mean, doesn’t every girl turn to ice cream in the wake of a nasty breakup? (It almost seemed like an obligation or a rite of passage…)

But what I realized was that the post-breakup binging was not just about comfort food. It was helping me hide from the world.

The longer I stayed stuck in binge eating, the less I put myself out there on dating sites. The less I’d show up for social engagements. And the less I’d allow myself the opportunity for genuine connections with others.

We’re talking about hiding behind a wall of weight in an attempt to fix a broken heart. A wall that I thought would protect me from getting hurt again in the future.

Of course, you and I both know that extra weight doesn’t protect you from anything. But your subconscious mind can sometimes pull some serious trickery. It can make you take questionable steps in the name of staying “safe.”

And sometimes, it triggers you to put yourself through something as uncomfortable as binge eating in order to keep you “safe.”

So it’s entirely possible that you might say you want to lose weight, but be secretly sabotaging yourself for fear of how succeeding might change your life.

Emotional Factor #2: Where your feelings and your physiology collide. What do you do when you’re on a weight loss quest? You hit the gym. You cut your calories or control your food. You skimp on certain things and maybe obsess over every bite.

And no matter what you do, it’s not happening fast enough for you…

You still haven’t dropped those 20 pounds. You’re still not the size you think you should be. You still don’t like the reflection in the mirror.

Trust me, I know that feeling!

Where does all of that fighting, forcing, and insisting upon absurdly high standards take you? It turns your body into a big-time ball of stress.

And if there is anything that is the antithesis to weight loss, stress would be it. Let me explain what I mean by that…

The more you fight, the less you let go. Sounds obvious at first, right?

But the irony comes in when you understand that you’re putting up a fight in an attempt to let go of  weight. And you’re standing directly in your own way of success.

How does excess stress stunt healthy weight loss?

When your body is in a stressed-out state, your digestion becomes less efficient. Your metabolism gets sluggish. You build less muscle mass and store more fat, particularly around your stomach area.

Your body is in a tailspin of chaos. And it ends up clinging to the weight that you’re fighting so desperately to lose.

In other words, the more you push, control, and force your body into changing, the more it will fight to stay the same.

Fighting won’t help you lose weight and focusing intensely on weight loss creates chaos in the system.

Let go of the fight and work with your body instead of against it.

Reducing your stress, giving yourself compassion, and moving toward inner peace is what really will set you free.

Emotional Factor #3: Shifting your focus from weight loss to nurturing your body and working with it instead of against it.

I’m not saying that you have to release your desire to lose weight all together. If you want to lose weight, that’s ok.

But, remember all that stress we talked about in #2…that stress response that makes it impossible to release weight is increased by an intense and stressful focus on the outcome of watching the scale go down.

It’s ok to still want to lose weight, but one must put “weight loss” for its own sake back on the shelf so it doesn’t create more stress.

Along with stress, a focus on weight loss has you think about food more, have more cravings, and leads to all the the things that would make you gain more weight.

So – one must release the focus on weight to actually get to a place where your body can release it in a way that lasts.

Instead of doubling down and getting tunnel vision about a number on the scale, take the process one step further.

Start by healing your relationship with your body. Focus less on a set of numbers, and more on feeling fantastic and free in your own skin.

For example, instead of pushing your body to change, focus on nourishing your it with love and food that leaves you feeling great.

Instead of struggling to be a perfect size whatever, honor your body as it is now.

Instead of identifying as someone who “needs to lose weight,” reconnect with your true self and step into those feelings that you think weight loss will bring you RIGHT NOW.

When you reconnect with yourself, the deeper work becomes a lot more doable. You’ll have easier access to limiting beliefs and self-sabotage patterns, and have a better chance of letting them go.

That connection with your body is the key and you’ll be that much closer to the lasting success you’re dreaming about!

Weight loss is not a one-sided, linear game. It’s more than calories, macronutrients, and CrossFit.

The inner work is what will ultimately get you to lasting freedom and ease.  

You’ll feel more peaceful and calm throughout your day. And you’ll turn that relationship with your body into a lasting lifetime partnership.

What could be a more beautiful path to lasting weight loss AND freedom and ease with your body and your food?

Now, I know this is a lot to take in, especially if you’ve been on the traditional diet for years! Bringing in this deeper piece might be a big step for you, and I get that.

All you need to do is start returning to yourself. Take one step at a time to address your emotions and reconnect with your body. And along the way, you’ll find freedom with your body and your food.

If you need a little support in this area, I am here for you! I’ve led thousands of women through binge and emotional eating and on to freedom. I’ve turned around my struggle as well.
