Diets make you obese

Science has finally figured out that diets make you obese
I wish we knew that before I started my first diet at age five!

As a perpetual dieter I’ve learned a lot about food now I’m a certified healer and life coach and getting my certification in sports nutrition.

Society is weight biased
I know from first hand experience the frustration of

- Gaining weight on a weight watcher’s diet plan, then being blamed for cheating
(although I told them I couldn’t eat that much food at the start and needed something tailored to me…)

- Not losing weight when working out four hours a day and eating a 400 calorie diet for a year training for a triathlon

- The doctors telling me I’m eating too much and just need to eat less (than 400 calories?)

-Being told I had an eating disorder when I was following
the doctor’s advice on how to lose weight.

- Racing an Olympic size triathlon at 220 pounds and being told to leave the staging area for the racers.

- Being rejected on insurance because I wasn’t under 170 pounds, even though I was in perfect health and in triathlete condition.

- Being evaluated on weight when I complained of exhaustion and a doctor told me all I needed to do is lose a few pounds to feel better, when I had mononucleosis

Now science knows to use exercise for well being not to lose weight and
that dieting doesn’t work, but food does

Lose weight by eating right and managing stress!
Nourishing yourself in the right amounts at the right times during the day
can bring balance into your life.

You may need to eat more to lose weight. Together we can figure it what your body needs.
