PERSONAL:
Years of failed attempts to gain control of my physical weight left me at my lowest point, frustrated, angry and confused. I had given up on myself and did not believe I could change what I had become. I had tried all the diets out there and was stuck in the “cycle” (not uncommon), which was to
start a program, make some progress and then quit, only to gain the weight back, plus more.
In January 2008, understanding why I couldn't succeed in this area of my life when I was successful in other areas became more important to me than losing the physical weight.
And so, my transformation journey towards a healthier me took on a new approach.
For the first time, I was doing the work from the INSIDE out. No longer concerned with a specific number on a scale or a specific clothing size, I went to work. My personal experience releasing over 50 pounds of physical weight and gaining even more as a result of the inner-work has made clear for me that positive, healthy change is possible for each and every one of us.
I believe by implementing simple, gradual, sustainable changes in the way we think, the way we eat and the way we move, we can benefit from lasting results towards our improved overall health, while inspiring others to do the same.
