We all want: Choices | Freedom | Control
It’s all we strive for in life isn’t it?
But when I was struggling with my weight for those long 25 years, choices, freedom and control were not my experience. I felt very much out of control.
I think that’s the appeal of going on a “diet”, a feeling we’re taking control.
But restricting food isn’t control, it’s controlling.
And there’s a big difference between them.
On a diet there’s no connection with ourselves or the driving forces within our mind and body and that’s ultimately why we lose control and end up habit relapsing.
Our lives are full of situations were control is handled by others, but our weight and health, the way we eat and exercise, that should be something that we enjoy with ourselves.
Dietless Living® Personal Health Leadership™ Weight Loss Programs will guide you to:
Using a restrictive food plan to lose weight is like stretching out a rubber band, at some point you’re going to have let it go and when you do, it will snap right back to the way it was.
So what the heck can you do when you know you need to stop eating certain foods but you know you can’t give them up?

Ever found yourself in the kitchen with the cookie jar under your arm and a cookie or 3 already gone and wondered how you got there and why you didn’t notice?
We spend most of our life operating on auto pilot and our eating habits are no different.
The brain invented auto pilot to save us time and energy. It’s super clever, it learns how to do something, which to be fair can be rather tedious, and then to save us time and energy it bookmarks how and when to do that task and then your brain leads your body around like a puppet, so you can think about other things.
Some of the things that are bookmarked are called life skills and talents and others are called habits.
Cooking is a life skill.
Standing in the kitchen with the cooking jar under your arm and 3 cookies in before you notice you’re doing it, that’s a habit.
And it’s these auto food habits we need to get a handle on if we want to lose weight without restrictive food programs.

Happy Easter!
What are you doing this weekend, do you get the whole 4 days off?
Whatever you’re doing, simply enjoy yourself and forget about the Easter eggs, its’ just chocolate after all. And chocolate is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, all year every year and fills shelves in almost every shop we walk into. There is literally nothing special about it.
Break-free from the marketing matrix and become a #freedomseeker instead.
Focus on outside time, having fun, finding connection and laughter.
Whatever’s happening in your world at the moment isn’t going to be improved by chocolate. But getting outside and experiencing the real sensations and pleasures of life will:
And if all the cells in your body were solar panels, stepping outside is what makes them all turn and look up and that is where real joy is experienced.
Life is a wonderful continuation, the sun will always circle the earth, the ...

Do you procrastinate?
Procrastinate means: to delay or postpone action, to put off doing something.
A simple Google search will provide many reasons why we procrastinate.
But from my experience, when it comes to starting a weight loss program, any program, even ones we create ourselves, we back away and procrastinate simply because of a wee little fear.
What that fear is, is different for each and every one of us but mostly they revolve around these:
I know firsthand what it’s like to really really really want to get going, and really really really need to get going and yet, still sit there like a deer in the headlights, and do absolutely nothing except put more food in my mouth.
Whilst so much time can pass while we’re in...
What are 3 things you can do to prevent putting the weight back on?
There are 99 reasons we put on weight and how we feel is just 1 of them.
But how we feel is connected to almost all of the other 98 reasons we put on weight.

We’ve all done it.
We’ve all fallen off the wagon.
There’s literally no shame in that.
Yet, sometimes, it can take us into deep shame that leads us into the quitters spiral.
When we fall off the wagon in such a drastic way that it leads to total abandonment of our goals, it’s not because we ate something we shouldn’t have, it starts with something far more meaningful to us and that’s what leads to the food and ultimately our quitters spiral.
The quitters spiral happens when we break one of our own cardinal rules which discredit one of our deepest held beliefs about ourselves.
Perhaps you have a core belief that:
What’s the easiest way to make great food choices at the supermarket?
Did you know that the front of food labels is all marketing hype? And the ONLY purpose of the front of the label is to get products off the shelf and into your trolley?
But thankfully they also have to give us the information we need to make great choices and that’s the ingredients list and nutritional table on the back.
Watch this week’s episode of The Weight is Over™ for 3 simple steps to losing weight with great food choices.
