There is no “One” way to lose weight and Concierge Weight Loss & Coaching provides a unique personalized approach. I bring motivation and inspiration to weight loss to help women lose weight the way that works for them.
Sometimes you just want pies for breakfast I want to show you how "un-diet" like I really am. I was at a family reunion over the weekend, where my family all gathered and brought all the food.
My cousin makes homemade, from scratch pies. The old me would have felt completely out of control around so much sugar and would feel like this was a choice to lose weight or enjoy pie, with no possibilities between. All or nothing. I now know that I can choose how I approach these family affairs.
I came ready to love on family and enjoy every moment. And guess what I chose to enjoy these homemade pies. ALL OF THEM!
At the reunion I had a plate of lunch that was a little less than what my body was actually hungry for, so I could save room for the desserts.
When I got my plate I had a sliver of all the desserts I wanted to try. When a cousin who knows I am a weight loss coach, laughed and asked if I was going to post all the desserts on my page, I knew I had to share.
I want to share because diet mentality that we've all experienced would say "I shouldn't be eating all the desserts." That kind of thinking leads to deprivation and restriction, which leads to thinking you are "good" if you don't eat it and "bad" if you do. Then when you have all the FOMO you eat it all and then spiral overeating and criticizing on repeat.
I love sharing another way. I teach you to eat what you love but do it in a way that you can feel good about yourself.
I enjoyed my family and the food. I listened to my hunger and yes, I did overeat a little but nothing like I did before. I only ate the part of the pies that I liked (I don't like crust or meringue.) I chose to have some for breakfast and then I was finished, it didn't carry over into binging, restricting, and starting again tomorrow.
I now make decisions for myself, my health, and my weight loss all from a place of love & compassion. I always consider what I truly want and then do it in a way that honors how I now take care of myself and my relationship with food.
So yes, sometimes I eat all the pies for breakfast and I am not ashamed to let you all know it.

Week 3 in the FINISH Course revisited is all about Thought Work.
Thought work doesn't sound like something you would "work" on. Thoughts are just something that happen, they pop in and out of your head. Right?
If you have listened at all to me or any of my programming you have heard multiple times about how your thoughts, feelings and actions are related.
As you learn to understand that your thinking is responsible for what you are feeling you begin to realize that you may have some control over it. You may want to practice some thinking that feels good.
You learn that the things you do, the actions you take, are all motivated by your feelings. Then you realize this "work" called thought work might be very beneficial to get you to "do" things, things like lose weight.

Week Two in revisiting the FINISH Course - Self Module
This month you are getting a sneak peak into the membership. Each week I deliver a juicy morsel that only the membership receives. Check each week's podcast to get all the behind the seasons info.
The Self module was intentionally put at the beginning of the course because as women we typically were not taught self: gratitude, care or love.
As we re-visit this module it is a great time to brush up on all these.
☞ Have you gotten away from affirmations?
☞ Are you scheduling self care into your day?
☞ How are you speaking to yourself? About your body or your weight loss?
☞ Are you dreaming of you future or stuck in your past?

This week we will talk all about the Quick Start Course. How planning our meals helps us identify what areas we need to work in to lose weight. I teach you how to appreciate and even love planning. Seriously, no joke...
Re-visiting the basics reinforces your foundation of weight loss. The basics will always be the foundation for growth.

Water & Sleep are two of the basic fundamentals required for weight loss. And yet, so many still struggle.
I discuss the important role they play in your body and give to tips to get them in.
As simple as enough water and sleep sound, they do not happen accidentally. Until you develop the habits, you will intentionally plan them.
This and all self care are worth the effort, because YOU are worth it!

Do you feel out of control with your favorite foods?
Banishing them in the name of Weight Loss?
Managing urges is simply understanding the urge & deciding how you want to react.
Urges are normal and will always be there but the urgency will diminish as you practice not acting on them.
Sometimes you will choose to eat & sometimes you won't. There is no judgement, no beat downs, only a choice. What are you choosing? The food or your goal? A moment of pleasure or the momentum from pride that drives the next step to your goal?
Practice having & not having foods. Take the deprivation out & remove any power you have given it.

Do you know who you want to be?
Decide who you are and who you want to be. We talk about the characteristics you want to be known by and how to create your style. You can use your style to reflect who you want to be. Some days you dress for how you want to feel and then your thoughts and mood align. When I put on a dress and heels, I feel together and attractive. Your style will be the first thing others see of you.
Tell them what opinion to form by how you dress, how you present yourself and who you say you are.

This month we are beginning our Great Reinvention. We start with our relationship with food. We look at where we are and what we would like it to look like. We walk through the process of creating that ideal relationship with food.
We will look at what are "diet mentality" dreams/expectations and what is the next step in the journey to your goal weight and ideal food relationship.

Happening "to" or "for" you?
This is one of those cup half full vs. half empty kind of explanations. As you learn what personality type you identify with, you will see how it is supporting or limiting you. There is no good or bad personality, only what is useful or not.
As you discover how and why you may respond in specific situations you can give yourself not only awareness and understanding but also grace. Everyone has their strengths and knowing yours along with your limitations can make weight loss and everything else much easier. You can reach your goals, knowing what areas you may want to make easier on yourself.
How you perceive your level of control, responsibility, and ability to create change greatly effects your experiences in life, your relationships and how you respond to circumstances. You may begin believing that everything happens for you, the result you wanted or for the opportunity to learn and grown.

Do you think of yourself as a people pleaser? Do you find yourself worried about hurting someone else's feeling so you do all kinds of things to prevent that? Are you the resident volunteer for everything, and just can't seem to say no?
Another coach once said that people pleasers were actually people manipulators. Harsh? Maybe, but I'll help you gain your power over your own emotions, thoughts and self validation. You will learn to find those things within yourself instead of from others.

Unsupportive Partner?
Do you have an unsupportive partner? You think you will never be able to lose weight with them doing and saying all the things. They just don't understand. They just keep bringing all those treats around and asking for pizza every night. I teach you how to overcome an unsupportive partner and maybe even get them on your side.
With or without them YOU CAN SUCCEED! I can show you how.
Feelings sometimes are uncomfortable and you may want to stop those feelings. I teach you how to be so comfortable being uncomfortable that you never need to hide from or avoid your feelings. Weight loss can seem harder when you are not managing your feelings and you have used food to distract yourself. When you are willing to feel anything and know that it has no power over you, you will not avoid feelings or try to stop them. I coach my clients how to manage their thoughts and create new ones. However, sometimes just knowing where the uncomfortable thought and feeling is coming from is all you really need to do. Dive into this exercise and learn how to manage your feelings through your thoughts, knowing there are no bad feelings.
Don't give food the credit for Your Relief Do you eat when stressed? Many say it make them feel better. Some recognize that it a mere distraction. There are so many other ways to distract you. The thoughts and feelings are still there until you manage them. Those feelings keep popping back up again and again. I teach you how to manage the thoughts and feelings to really solve for uncomfortable feelings. You are the solution to your relief.
Summertime FOMO?
Do you have summer FOMO? You are not alone. I teach you how to enjoy your summer fun and lose weight. Make this the summer, the one you got it all. You will start practicing how to be a person who has lost weight while having all the fun.
Sit in Frustration or Fix it Do you feel frustrated, overwhelmed, confused or defeated? Do you tell yourself it is taking too long or that you'll never figure it out? Most just say "I don't know."
I don't know what to do. I don't know what is wrong or how to make it work. Simply I don't know.
I teach you how to turn the broken record off and just create movement. Movement of any kind or any speed is still movement. Movement is what gets you to your goal. Weight loss will happen if you don't just sit in frustration.
Learn how to create that movement all with a simple thought.
Layering on the Judgement
You have made mistakes on the journey to your weight loss goal. We all have! But what do you do next?
Do you start judging your mistake? Thinking you didn't do it right or that it takes too long or this is too hard.
Does that motivate you to get moving? The "kick in the pants" may have for awhile. However usually it doesn't stop there.
Usually you feel bad for your mistake, judge it and then judge feeling bad or feeling disappointed. Do you think I shouldn't feel disappointed I SHOULD feel motivated? Now you are not only feeling bad or disappointed in the mistake you made but now judging yourself for feeling bad about it.
This layering of judgement can feel heavy, overwhelming. It is no wonder that most attempts end in quitting.
It's not even that the "diet" or program is too hard, it's that our thoughts about our mistakes feels too hard.
Watch or listen and find out how to feel the feels without judging them. No more layers of judgement!
One day is a thought we think when we are wanting something but really thinking it is too hard to achieve, now. I teach you how to break your goals into doable steps and how to manage your thoughts that get you to start today. You will learn how to manage your weight by just doing it. When life is messy or chaotic it actually makes it the perfect time to start. You will have people who need you, events and stress in the future when you reach your goal. Learning how to manage your weight while life happens will make you actually know how to manage it. You will not have any better day than today. Are you ready to get started?
Goal setting can feel impossible when you set your goal too high. Have you set a weight loss goal and started out super excited, ready to slay and then give up? The goal you set should feel like such a small stepping stone to the big goal that you think it won't matter. That simple doable goal will be much more achievable and when you string together many of these, you are as good as there. I teach you how use a thought model to plan goals that you can accomplish. You have probably previously made a goal and threw all your efforts into it to get there. Those efforts are called actions and are only part of the plan. The thoughts that you think are gold that motivate you. When you feel motivated you will continue each and every step, every little goal that will get you to your weight loss goal.
700 Fails is an idea that if you are willing to fail multiple times then you will "fail" your way to success. Some things will work right away and others won't. When you believe you will fail 700 times then it is just moving past one of the Expected fails so you can get on with the next one. This expectation of failing removes the idea of right and wrong actions, normalizing and neutralizing failures, keeping momentum towards the goal. Knowing eventually one of the things you try will create success.
Perfectionism is a way of thinking that you are NOT perfect, focusing on all the ways you are not good enough. Releasing perfectionistic thinking comes with practice and I tell you how to ladder up those thoughts.
I present these ideas of eating just enough and gifting your goal bites. Listen as we sit in the next level thinking. Your brain may not have ever considered how these ideas although simple, are so powerful. Learn how these little shifts in thought neutralize eating and working towards your goal.
How much = How long is a food challenge that brings awareness to the amount of energy and feeling of satisfied that different foods bring. The challenge will include monitoring eating times, quantity of food and hunger cues and times of returning hunger. You will learn how your body responds to different foods. The awareness is empowering, putting you in control of making decisions for your body while understanding it's true needs.
Choose one day to do the challenge, writing down everything and look at it to determine what you can learn about the foods you eat and what energy they provide. Download the worksheet Here.
