Approximately 98 million adults in the U.S. are considered overweight, with obesity seeming to be on the rise each year.

Why is this? That seems to be the question of the day. It has to do with more than simply willpower, diet, and exercise. The brain, hormones, genetics, our mindset, stress, the food industry, emotional eating, and more all play a part in weight gain. 

The good news is that many chronic conditions such as heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes can be prevented by making lifestyle changes, learning how to deal with stress, diet, lifestyle habit change, and strategies to handle emotional eating.  Even small changes of 5-10% loss in body weight can have a profound increase in health parameters and can help you avoid these issues.  Don’t wait until you have a diagnosis to start making changes toward better health.

How would you answer the following questions:

Question #1

Are you a busy professional and have difficulty finding time to eat healthy, find work-life balance, and have gained weight as a result?

Question #2

Do you automatically go to food for comfort when stressed, lonely, angry, or tired, and as a result it has now taken a toll on your weight and health?  Not sure how to stop the cycle?

Question #3

Do you feel tired and sluggish often, going through the motions, just trying to survive the day?

Question #4

Are you confused about what is a healthy option to buy when you go to the grocery store?

If you answer "yes", you are in the right place. There is hope!

Where to Start and How Seeds of Change Can Help

After years of coaching clients, I’m confident that diets do not work for long-term weight loss, especially if you are an emotional eater.  The “Diet Mentality” sets us up for failure because it fosters a temporary way of life that is not sustainable (again, especially for the emotional eater).  Typically, once people lose their goal weight, they slowly go back to eating and living as they did before, often gaining more weight than they lost . . .  and the cycle repeats.  Diets do not take into account the individual person, their genetics, environment, stressors, habits, preferences, and why they eat emotionally.

If you’re tired of cookie-cutter solutions and want to get off of the weight loss/weight gain roller coaster, ask me about the Seeds of Change “Non Diet Approach Coaching” that takes all of the above elements into account, leading to weight loss you can maintain for a lifetime!

I’ve always had a natural passion for eating healthy foods and an interest in nutrition and how it affects the body. After dieting to try to lose weight quickly, I unknowingly ended up on a high inflammatory diet. This, along with intense stress in my personal and career life, led me to develop an autoimmune disease diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis (MS). I decided not to accept this diagnosis and battled for my health.

I saw results firsthand by changing my mindset, my food choices, practicing the power of prayer, making positive lifestyle changes, setting healthy boundaries and being surrounded by supportive people.
