If you already eat healthy, how can you lose weight without dieting?

Oh do I know how defeating it is to live inside this question.

I used to be clinically obese despite my healthy whole foods plant based diet.

What's worse is that even with decades of experience behind me as a nutritionist and graduating with honours from 2 of Canada's top holistic nutrition schools - I just could not figure out how it was humanly possible to NOT eat processed junk food or be a sugar addict - and still end up obese anyway!

It took me a year to even decide to do anything about it because I was in 'poor me' mode. 

I fell into victim consciousness, because it felt like I was already doing everything right. 

It felt like no matter what I did, I just couldn't win.

I wasn't willing to beat my body into submission at the gym and nor was I willing to be an obsessive calorie counter.

It all just felt futile.

Here's are the 3 insights that changed everything for me:  

  1. My results are a reflection of my mind.
  2. My body is a reflection of my emotions.
  3. Clearly I was missing something and my body was holding onto fat for a specific reason.

This shift of consciousness enabled me to lose 12 dress sizes without 'dieting' or exercise.

Here is what I discovered:

  1. There were gaps in my knowledge that needed to come to light.
  2. Those 'pesky' symptoms of PMS & hypoglycaemia were not just "me" or "how I am", they were my body's way of telling me that I had dis-ease brewing beneath the surface that had been trying to get my attention since my early twenties. 
  3. I had emotional issues that I was suppressing and life situations that I was settling for and they were weighing heavily on me.

You see, my ego was in the way.

I had been telling myself that I already knew everything, that I was "fine" (when I wasn't) and I simply did not want to look at what needed to change in my life, because the devil I knew, was less scary than the devil I didn't know.

At that point, I was comfortable using my extra body weight to insulate me from the hard, cold truth that I was nowhere where I thought I could or should be in life.

So here is what I did to overcome this:

1. I studied weight loss physiology like my life depended on it.

2. I pinpointed the underlying health imbalances that were causing me to gain weight despite a healthy diet.

3. I admitted to myself that I was staying in an dysfunctional marriage dynamic that had little chance of ever changing and it was draining my energy. 

Awareness isn't enough though. 

I had to change everything for my life to be transformed. 

I share what changing everything looks like in the 'Lose Weight Without Dieting' webinar series.
