When what used to work to keep weight off isn’t working…

…and the thought of another diet is annoying – what do you do?

Assess your habits, routines and behaviors.

In the last 2 years I’ve found it harder to keep my weight in check than ever before. 

The intermittent fasting wasn’t working for me anymore and I found myself craving more sweets vs salty chips as I had in the past. 

I didn’t want to do another diet so I started using the Lumen breath sensing device. 

FREE Download, 5 Steps To Optimal Health - Learn what steps you need to take to begin feeling healthy and start living your best life today!

It helped me to realize how my habits, routines and behaviors were messing with my blood sugar balance, a key factor over 40. 

I was able to see in realtime what I needed to adjust to get me back on track. 

While it still helps me to keep things in check I realized last spring that I needed a bit more help. 

Turns out dialing in your blood sugar only goes so far when you aren’t challenging your body enough during the day. 

With using the Whoop I realized I was sitting more than was optimal for my body so I started moving more during the day.

And with the help of my fitness coaches I increased my workout intensity with sprint workouts twice a week and switched up my weight lifting routines

With the Lumen, Whoop and increasing intensity things shifted a little but I knew I was missing something. 

When I met Ali Shapiro during a podcast interview and she helped me to realize the root cause of my stress eating things clicked. 

Tomorrow, September 10th, 2024 Ali is hosting a free call “Untangle Your Food Triggers: Catch Yourself Before You Fall Off Track” – 12-1:15p ET/9a-10:15a PST click HERE to check it out. 

In this class she’s going to go through the same coaching exercise she took me though to uncover the source of my emotional eating. 

This mini-class is one aspect of Ali’s 12 week live course “Why Am I Eating This Now?” that she’s offering this fall. 

If you’ve been struggling to put all the pieces together with over 40 weight loss and you know you’re prone to stress eating I know Ali’s program will help you. 

She helped me add the missing piece to my total body wellness program. 

Check out her class if you can or listen into my podcasts with Ali Ep 482 and 495 to get a sense of what it’s like to work with her.
