Hey there. We all have moments from the past that shape us. Some bring joy, some bring pain, and some even define how we see ourselves. But living fully means appreciating these moments for what they were and not letting them dictate our future

Hey there. This time of year you’ll start seeing many “survival guides” for eating during the holidays. Let’s look at specific tips for each of the three holidays listed below, along with a couple of extra tips to keep you in a more relaxed headspace.

Hey there. There’s a fine line between confidence and ego. While confidence gives us the drive to take action, ego can push us into destructive behavior if left unchecked.

The hardest part about getting in shape is the headspace. The default thought process most people have around exercising more and eating better, is they have to  go from doing very little up till now, to a regiment that's so specific & challenging it would make an Olympic athlete blush. Unless you're able to fit your life around a program "flipping the switch on" won't work. That's where minimum daily actions (MDA's)  come in.

The saddest thing to see is someone doing all this work to change what’s on the outside because that’s something they’ve desperately wanted for a long time, only to see them win the weight loss game but soon realize that they don’t feel any different on the inside. 

When someone’s trying to lose weight, they’re not only trying to create new habits and routines but more importantly, they have to be able to connect with themselves and work through everything that they have been carrying emotionally, in many cases their entire life.

The amount of knowledge fitness professionals have about eating for weight loss that long time dieters don't is much less then you might think. If you've been trying to lose weight for years, or even decades, you know the mechanics of most “if not all” of the popular diets. Plus, you have hands on experience on how each of the plans you’ve tried to follow have fit into your day-to-day life, which is most important.

Know what screws up everyone’s perception of how weight loss should go? Those magical first few months of starting back on a fitness routine. You know, where you can drop 10-20 lbs of weight a month for the first month or two. This is your body dropping water weight, getting acclimated to the new routine AND losing fat. The problem is we get driven by the drop on the scale.
