WANT TO LOSE WEIGHT? DO THIS! I had a conversation with one of my clients today about how hard it is to accept yourself when she still hasn't lost the weight... In her words: "I cannot accept myself with all the fat on my body, I look like a pig, and I'm full of crappy junk foods I just binged on, I cannot accept that!!" But here is the thing, though... >>> You will not be able to hate yourself slim. You cannot punish yourself slim. It just doesn't work! (Trust me, I tried.) You really need to love yourself first. --- I'd like to show you the differences between trying to love yourself slim or hate yourself slim. Imagine a woman that's trying to lose weight. She started a new diet again that will help her reach her goals. Everything is going as planned for a while until one day when she has a super stressful day and she misses her workout and in the evening she eats a huge portion of ice-cream... ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★ 💎 SCENARIO #1 (self-hate) Here is how this continues if she reacts with SELF-HATE. THOUGHTS: "I blew it, again!! How could I eat that ice-cream?! I have no willpower, I'm never going to succeed. What's wrong with me?!" FEELINGS: Guilty. Ashamed. Hopeless. Angry. Inadequate. ACTIONS: Give up. Eat more sweets. Binge on all the "forbidden foods" until the next time she'll decide to start over. ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★ 💎 SCENARIO #2 (self-love) Now let's look at this scenario when she reacts with SELF-LOVE. THOUGHTS: "Hmmm, I wonder why I wanted to eat that ice-cream so badly. What do I really need? Rest? Pleasure? Maybe my body just needed more carbs! Can I be okay with that? Yes. I want to trust my body. I want to be her friend. It's all okay. I've got this." FEELINGS: Compassion. Nurtured. Taken care of. Relieved. RESULTS: Connects with her body in a deeper way. Becomes friends with her body and starts to work with her and not against her. Feels happier. Usually loses weight in the most pleasurable way. ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★ Can you now see how it's actually crucial to approach weight loss with self-love?? Say YES if you agree. 👇 http://ift.tt/2FaL8YA

Did you know that the extra weight on your body can act as a form of self-protection? This is one of the BIGGEST blocks. ❌✋ It is very often that women who were sexually abused gain weight right after that and have a lot of trouble losing that extra weight.  On a conscious level it seems like they truly want to lose weight but if we look deeper we see that they are actually really afraid that if they lose weight they will again become more attractive, which will lead to more attention from men, which - they believe - could lead to abuse again. So this extra weight is actually keeping them really, really safe. Another example is from one of my client, who again, did everything that she could think of but nothing worked.  She sabotaged herself every time she reached a certain weight, she would gain it back again.  Her subconscious fear was that if she loses weight, she’ll become more confident and then she’ll attract other men and fall in love with somebody else. She was in an unhappy relationship at the time and even though she didn’t really enjoy, she secretly longed for more connection and love.  But at the same time, she loved her husband so much and he was her best friend. Once she cleared the resistance, she could finally lose weight for good. What is the extra weight on your body doing for you? You need to figure this out because if there is something, it is definitely blocking your weight loss efforts. I'd love to help you pinpoint the exact thing that's blocking you.  Send me a PM, honey bear. 💋 And we'll figure it out together. . 📸:@anettvelsberg http://ift.tt/2w8czlc

I got one email that brought tears to my eyes and you'll soon learn why. 💌 It was from one of my past clients who has a special place in my heart for sure. She is such a sweetheart... really gentle, kind, with a big heart. But she was in a terrible place when we started working together back in April this year. Super depressed, sad, lonely, and just tired of life. She was eating emotionally, and often ate a whole jar of Nutella just because she wanted to feel a bit of comfort and love. And she was hiding. REALLY hiding. Even though she absolutely loved summer, vacation by the sea and swimming... she hadn't been in a bikini for 4 years! She hated her body! So much shame. So much deprivation. Just waiting for when that moment will come when she'll lose weight and everything will be okay. But yesterday, Sandy wrote to me: "This summer has been amazing, Tiasha. And all thanks to you. I went on a vacation to the beach and I enjoyed so, so much. I now look at myself in the mirror and I actually LOVE what I see. I'm not restricting myself and I'm still getting fitter and fitter. I even met a guy, who unfortunately wasn't the right one and he broke my heart. But I didn't attack my Nutella like I used to, instead, I took really good care of myself and even went to a spa for a week with my best friend. You saved me, Tiasha, and I'll be forever grateful. My life is transformed" Can you understand now why her email brought tears to my eyes?! 😭 It's so incredible how quickly our lives can change if we put in the work! ♥ And I'm so, so grateful that I have the opportunity to help so many women.
