Following on from my chat in stories today...Typic

Following on from my chat in stories today...Typically, when we hear the word “diet” we conjure up images of a long list of foods we have to avoid. That’s because this is how most “diets” work. According to the dictionary, there are two definitions of diet:

① the kinds of foods a person, animal or community habitually eat (for example,
vegetarian, vegan or paleo diet);

② a special course of food to which one restricts oneself, either to lose weight or for medical reasons.

When I refer to the word “diet” I mean it in the “abundance of foods enjoyed because
they support an individual’s health context, not a restrictive “you can’t eat that” diet or “you can only eat 1200 calories a day” diet.

Restrictive strategies set us up for failure in the long run. As a society, we’ve been falling victim to the diet mentality for way too long and then blame ourselves because it doesn’t work. It’s not your fault! ANY restrictive diet will have a yo-yo effect. When you deprive your body of the nutrition it needs, it keeps track. Once you go off the so-called diet, your body knows what it was lacking and your willpower is just no match. Again, it’s NOT your fault. This is why diets don’t work long-term, not to mention the damage that can be done to your health with overly restrictive diets.

Focus on nourishment, start feeling good that is what will keep you going and your body will LOVE you for it. I promise 😊

Envision Your Future Self 🤫 Here’s a littl

Envision Your Future Self

🤫 Here’s a little secret about one of the ways I keep myself motivated.

HINT: It WILL work for you, too!

Why would you want to wait 1, 2, or even 3 years to start feeling and thinking like your future “best” self?!

Well, you don’t have to! If you want to create a new reality, you have to DO things differently than you do right now. Here’s how I personally do it ...

💡I picture how I want my life to be in the future.

🤺Right now, I’m envisioning myself 3 years from now, having ALREADY achieved all my work and personal goals.

And then I imagine ...
✔️what kind of decisions will I be making?
✔️what will I be thinking about?
✔️what will I be doing during the day?
✔️who will I surround myself with?
✔️how will I feel when I get there?

I think about it all!

➡️ What is my daily routine like? How is my confidence? My health? What habits have I changed along the way to help me reach that goal?

🔥For me, that looks like ➡️ Getting up early in the morning to get some work done before everyone else wakes up, feeling super excited about the progress I am making! And that would give me even more energy to fuel me further.

✌️Then I start living my life as my “future self!” – as if I have already reached my goal. It’s fun … and I know it will help me get to my goal even faster.

Try this for yourself! What are 3 to 5 qualities of YOUR future self you can start embodying TODAY?! Let me know in the comments!!! 👇👇👇

One foot in front of the other...progress not perf

One foot in front of the other...progress not perfection 💕

The only person standing in your way is YOU! 💁‍♀️

I have to remind myself of this every day because my own self beliefs can stop me doing so much. However, I have learnt to get out my own way and live the life I CHOOSE to live. Even when I don’t feel good enough, strong enough, clever enough, confident enough, fit enough, I get up and do the best I can. I too have good days and days I want to stay in bed and hide from the world. It’s called being normal, I listen to my body and my mind and always do what is right for me.

So, if you have a dream, reach for it. If you have a goal, smash it. Whatever it is just DO IT if it feels right. Have a wonderful weekend...💕

Client Review 💕 “I contacted Christy in Janua

Client Review 💕 “I contacted Christy in January at my wit’s end and she was kind and supportive taking me through lots of little steps and explaining “diet” things over the years that haven’t helped me. I made small changes and the difference was incredible. Getting sugar out of my system was hard and it felt dreadful but oh my I felt unbelievable, I was sleeping better, had much more energy and people kept commenting on how I was looking.
I had lots on over my initial period and Christy talked me through nights out, weekends away, holidays and how to get right back in track. Her plans aren’t hard they are sensible and her support is so so important.
I have a long way to go but she keeps me motivated and telling me I’ll get there and I believe her. I think that’s a huge thing, she is approachable and you can put your trust in her and that’s invaluable.
You won’t regret logging on and picking up that phone.”
