I was really blown away by Drew Manning’s message and his way of expressing it. September is a time where many clients are doing a reset post summer and it’s a fresh start for many. Having a solid foundation for long term success is the key. The foundation includes your mind and your food. Having a plan and tools for improving your mindset is so important.

I have pages of quotes from her like "the crux of what we do is maintenance, I start talking habits and maintenance on day 1", or "yes it's about using Ideal Protein as a tool not a crutch". Of course, like I always say there are no answers but there are ideas and suggestions that may resonate true for you and help you build your strong foundation of health and vitality.

You want to listen to this just because Moyra’s voice is so soothing and peaceful. She shares about her weight loss journey, the ups and downs (no pun intended), and finding peace with herself, her weight, and staying true to what feels right for her. This was technically a phase 4 check in but we both knew it was also going to be a podcast so it’s not quite a phase 4 check in but it is.

Julie Beyer, owner and creator of Glow Chocolates, shares with us about what goes into the making of a healthy treat. One that tastes great and satiates and satisfies your taste buds. One that does not leave you feeling out of control and wanting to eat more and more and more.
info_outlineDieters often focus on food and forget to pay attention to what they say to themselves. Negative self talk has a huge impact on your success. A coach can help you identify what you say to yourself and start some new kinder habits.
