The best weight loss program you can start today

How do i lose weight fast, naturally and keep it off?... is a question i often get asked in my clinic. Carrying extra weight is stressful- physically, mentally and emotionally. It causes us soo much pain that we want to reduce this discomfort as soon as possible. Which is why we keep seeing all these diets come up offering fast solutions. They understand that your brain is wired to avoid pain and experience pleasure and they are capitalising on it.

While you may lose fast using this approach, the weight results are never lasting. What these diets and programs don't tell you is that the weight loss you have sustained is not only fat but also muscles, organ and bone tissues. Your muscle is your metabolism. The more muscle you have the more weight you lose. However fast weight loss leads to lots of muscle loss which mean a slower metabolism. As such when you go back to your previous way of eating you will now regain all the weight loss plus more as you have an even slower metabolism. This will keep you trapped doing yoyo dieting and stress the hell out of you. I have seen it and keep seeing it working with many men and women who have taken this approach.

If you are serious about weight loss you need to commit to a lifestyle change. That will be the best weight loss program program there is. You became fat because you didn't listen to your body and didn't know how to prioritise in such a way that your needs are meet first. You have prioritised work and kids and other commitments above you and here we are. And there is no judgement when i say this because i understand that no one taught you how to work with you body, mind and emotions in such a way that you can experience health and vitality everyday. Our society wires us to be always on the go, always living outside ourselves and overriding important message that our body provides. This gets us in trouble and leads to pain which eventually increases to such a point when you simply need to stop and change. And that's when my clients come and see me.

So what can you do?

Stop and start looking inside. Start paying attention to your body and educate yourself about how you body, mind and emotions work to create health. Then learn how to create a daily routine that keeps you at your peak. This should incorporate a proper diet, movement and exercise, conscious breathing, meditation, time for relation, nature and getting some sun. These are an absolute minimum you should consider.

Creating a routine when your system is imbalanced may be hard, as such i recommend you work with a health professional that can assess you and determine what strategies best suit your presentation. Best to avoid a one size fits all approach and look for personalised recommendations as this will help you create a lifestyle that keeps you fit, healthy, happy and thriving.
