  • Did you know you have a relationship with your protocol?

    Your protocol is your decisions on how you want to eat most days.  

    Our relationship with our protocol determines how we show up with our protocol.

    Hope Unwrapped is a 6 week Advent-Inspired Weight-Loss Journey class.

    1.  We will be studying 6 lessons of Advent and applying them to our weight-loss journey. 

    Here are the topics of the 6 lessons:

    Prophecy of the Messiah - how can we apply the anticipation of God's promises to our weight loss journey.Preparing the way - how can we prepare our hearts for Christmas and repent to make our hearts pure.The announcement of Mary - what was Mary's response to the angel telling her she was going to be the mother of Jesus.  How can we practice trust and obedience in our weight-loss journey.The joy of the Shepherds - how can we have joy in weight-loss...even when it's hard.The love of God - how does God's love affect our weight-loss journey.Christ coming back - How can we have a future focus on our weight-loss journey. 

    2.  The 2 phases of nutrition.  Here is what we will be learning about how food affects weight-loss.

    over-desire and urges.  Our focus will be on whole foods with exceptions.  The goal is to follow our plan and master urges.  There will be a meal plan template and specific meal plan samples for guidance in planning.Calories and macros.  The focus will be on how to nourish our bodies in a slight deficit so it isn't under stress.  The goal will be to learn how much our body needs to survive and still lose body fat.  There will be a specific meal plan sample with calories and measurements of food for a guideline.

     3.  Results - you create.

    I will teach you how to create any result you want.  You get to choose what you want to focus on.  Here are some ideas of what you will take away from our 6 weeks together and the tools I will teach you.

  • Hey Hey Hey my friends!!!  Happy Monday!  This episode is a recording of a teaching I did last Friday.  It was the end of our 5 day Meal Planning Challenge. 

    We talked about creating the energy to KEEP GOING!  Most of us quit our weight-loss journey because we get tired of the battle.  In this episode, I teach you why you're tired and then practical ways to lay that burden down and create energy to stay the course.

    Thank you for listening.  I appreciate you. 

    We start our Hope Unwrapped weight-loss class November 4th.  I'm hosting a Q&A call next Tuesday, October 29th @11am PST.  Click here to join me.  If you can't make it live, I'll send you the recording to your inbox.  

    Have an amazing week!

  • What?!??  There’s no ONE way to plan?  I had no idea!  I always try to find that 1 “right way” to do things.  

    I’ve found that when I believe there’s only 1 right way, I feel defeated and overwhelmed.

    Once I realized (and really believed) that there’s many ways to do things and all of them are right…I found MY way that gave me confidence to keep going.

    This is for all areas of our life.  It also is the secret to losing weight & deciding ahead of time what to eat to lose weight.

    Imagine not feeling overwhelmed or pressured to plan your meals the right way.  Imagine feeling confident & inspired to plan the way THAT WORKS FOR YOU!

    This is what I’ll be teaching in our 5 day meal planning challenge next week.  Want to join us?  We start Monday.  Sign up to join & get the different ways to plan meals & pick the one that inspires you!  

    Come join me for a 5 day Meal Planning Challenge!

  • Most of my life, I've been over-weight.  It wasn't until 2020 that I learned how to unwind my love for food and create my body to be a fat burning machine.  I thought this was the way.

    Until I couldn't lose anymore.  I wanted to lose the last 10-15 pounds, and I couldn't...I felt like I was stuck.  Then I started counting calories & macros specific for my body.  I started on August 5th and have broke through my plateau and am 10 pounds down counting macros.

    Now I know there is no right way to lose....in fact, we need both ways.  That has prompted me to offer a 6 week weight-loss journey implementing both phases to master weight-loss.

    Join me for a 6 week Advent Inspired Journey to losing 10 pounds leading up to the holidays.  I'm calling it Hope Unwrapped.  We will be unwinding our love for food and mastering urges in Phase 1 and learning about nourishing our bodies while in a caloric deficit for phase 2!

    Check out Hope Unwrapped here...I'd love to have you join us.

  • Enjoy this hour-long masterclass on setting weight-loss goals & sticking to it!

    In this class we focused on 3 things:

    1.  how to set a realistic & motivating weight-loss goal.

    2.  what is currently holding you back from achieving the weight-loss you want.

    3.  how to stay committed to yourself and lose the weight.

    It was fun.  There was good participation and breakthrough for the people who attended. 

    At minute 56, I talked about a new 6 week class coming in November.  I'm calling it "Hope Unwrapped."  It's a 6 week Advent-Inspired Weight-Loss Journey from November 6th- December 16th.  If you'd like to join us registrateion is open.  Click here for details.

    Listen in today as I share a very stressful situation that happened this week.

    As I navigated through the stressful situation, I learned that when I want to over-eat is AFTER the stress is gone.  So fascinating!

    I also share the phases of change and what to expect as you start to change a habit.
