Why I’m Not a Huge Fan of Before and After Photos

Create Your Balance

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again..I’M NOT A FAN!! In this episode, I’m once again diving in to WHY I’m not a fan of those before and after photos that are posted to promote weight loss. I have talked about this a time or two before, but this time I’m diving a bit deeper. I get it, before and after photos showcase the hard work and transformation people go through… BUT, what is it REALLY doing to to us when we see them??? Let’s chat about that…

1 Year Post-Op. Not Quite What I Expected BUT, Here We Go!!

Create Your Balance

SO a little over a year ago, I went in for a microdiscectomy for L5-S1 in my lower back. If you 've been following me, you know most of the details BUT it seems things have taken a turn that I certainly did not expect. I can say, it isn’t what I had hoped for a year out but I’m dealing with it the best I can. I will CUSS, COMPLAIN, and CRY but I will not QUIT!! As always, I’m putting one foot in front of the other and hoping for the best. Listen as I fill you in on the latest in my recovery.

Muscle Weighs More Than Fat…That’s a BIG FAT LIE!

Create Your Balance

Muscle weighs more than fat! I hear it all the time, but ya know what, it’s not true. A pound, is a pound is a pound. Which weighs more? A pound of feathers or a pound of bricks? You may choose bricks as your answer. Neither weighs more than the other, yet they do appear different. This is so true about muscle versus fat, and I’m about to discuss it in this episode.

Consistency…What does it REALLY mean?

Create Your Balance

I often ask my clients how consisten they have been with their programs in the past and most times they tell me they have been consistent but just aren't seeing results. Well, IF you are REALLY consistent, you will definitely see results. In the world o weight loss and fitness, a LOT of programs have a start and stop date. In the REAL, CONSISTENT world, there is no end, it becomes your life AND it MUST be realistis and sustainable. Let’s dive into a bit more on what it REALLY means to be consistent.

Making Peace With Food After Years of Yo-Yo Dieting

Create Your Balance

How many times have you been around the block with yo-yo diets? ME, Probably more than half my life. When you live your life chasing the diets and the diet mentality is ingrained in your brain, it’s hard to look at food as anything but the enemy. At least that's how I used to live. I went by the good/bad food mentality and feared anything that could cause me to gain weight. Food was the enemy and exercise was the punishment. Best life I ever lived ( sense the sarcasm) IT SUCKED!! Fast forward to today and I can tell you I have healed my relationship with food and see it for what...

Why Losing Weight Won’t Help You WIth Poor Body Image

Create Your Balance

I know, you’re thinking, she’s crazy. Hear me out for a second. I get that when you lose a few pounds and you can zip your pants a bit easier, you FEEL a sense of accomplishment and happiness BUT, with most, it quickly deflates because it can be VERY difficult to maintain. In comes the feelings of defeat, guilt, and anger. It takes a lt of effort to get ther and sometimes it takes even more to MAINTAIN those results. When we focus so much on the weight loss, the number on the scale and our pants, it can be overwhelming and a huge life suck!! Go ahead and ask me how I know that....

My motto is always, is is sustainable, maintainable and can you keep your sanity!!!??? Some of these programs will give you those fast results in an unrealistic and unhealthy way and then when you “go off” the program, there is weight gain over time. We seem to have a pattern of blaming ourselves when this happens. Let me tell you right now, IT IS NOT YOUR FAULT!!
