Let me share the hack, but it's probably not what you think. It's not about control it's not about food itself but it's more about shifting your identity towards V2.0, it's not what you're doing it's more about the person you are BE-ING.  It's something that I have personally been working on, and that's gratitude and appreciation.  In this episode I share 3 simple hacks that I recommend trying out...

I've seen a theme of WLS patient's not priortising themselves after surgery.  This might be staying up too late and not getting enough sleep, not doing all the things they know will help them such as meal planning, prepping. Or continuing with their V1.0 old eating habits.   They're caught up in a rut.  Making easy and fast eating choices. They maybe eating their way through the day or night. Weig...

We all have an Inner Mean Girl. It's the part of us that is judgemental, critical harsh.  Nothing is every good enough. She might come out when you see your reflection in the mirror.  Or when you are getting dressed each morning.  Or maybe comes out in a work meeting or a parenting moment, or maybe she comes out after you eat half the block of chocolate.  She might tell you - you're a failure, you...

So many women tell themselves the narrative that they are relaxing and eating…maybe the whole day has been about everyone else. Then it;s night time, the tv on and the chocolate or chips come out. You tell yourself you're relaxing but you are really numbing out. The main difference is that relaxation is when our awareness is in our body. When you are truly relaxed, you are often you aren't thinkin...

Many of us are guilty of asking for other weight loss surgery patient's before and after photos. I get the positive intention behind them.  Let's dig deeper because maybe this can help you and you can help others… What is underneath the before and after photos? When you think about it, it is nothing more than some strangers before and after photos that has nothing to do you with you.  It has nothi...

We all have a part of us that avoids things.    But how might it play out specifically with your eating and weight?   Avoidng gives us short term relief, but leads to longer term pain.  I see the avoidance part playing out in 1 of 3 ways for women who struggle with their eating and weight:   Avoiding there's a problem in the first place. Often we can be in denial that we have a problem in the firs...

I did.  I used to be so consumed about "fixing' my eating and weight.  It became a personal quest.  I didn't realise that it was a trap as we can't THINK our way out of this.  I believe we need to feel our way out of it and focus on the cause, not just the symptom.  Learn about what I recommend to focus on instead to start to get...

I've heard so many client stories and sabotage themes over the years.  Partner's: Bringing in V1.0 snacks when specifically asked not to. Ordering the favourite take away, even though they can't eat it. Pilling up the plates, after being told that it's too much and they can't eat it all.  The thing is, often it isn't just partners, it could be other family members or even friends.  We unpack it al...
