Do you feel frustrated in your weight loss efforts because it seems like you keep making the same mistakes over and over?
Have you vowed a million times to stop doing certain things, like continuing to eat even though you’re full, or snacking after dinner, or eating too much junk food, but you keep doing them anyway?

If so, you’re not alone.
But it doesn’t’ have to be that way.

Vowing to stop doing something just doesn’t work. You need to have a plan to change your behavior and establish a different habit.
You need specific, doable strategies to overcome your obstacles.
What if you reversed your approach?

Strategies to replace that habit with a different one.

This is such an important topic. Just yesterday I was speaking with a friend who had lost weight BUT started sabotaging herself by going out for snacks and happy hour with her friends to celebrate.
