The Best Way To Lose Weight: How To Definitely Know What You’re Using Food For

The best way to lose weight is to know what you’re using food for.

And the way to do that is to know what food is and also what food is not.

The best way to lose weight is to know what food is not

It will help you immensely along your weight-loss journey if you take the following to heart:

• Food is not a friend when no one else is around.
• Food is not a way to numb or avoid your emotional state.
• Food is not a fixer of your problems.
• Food is not a means to give yourself courage or conquer your fears.
• Food is not a method to escape from your life.
• Food is not a comfort when you are in need of comforting.
• Food is not a way to alleviate pain.
• Food is not a bolster for your self-esteem.
• Food is not a measure of your worthiness.
• Food is not a provider of encouragement or permission or approval or belief in yourself.
• Food is not a substitute for what’s missing in your life.

I want you to know that when I was morbidly obese, I used to use food for all those things.

I also want you to know if you’re using food for any of those things, you are using food in a way it was never intended to be used.

The best way to lose weight is to know what food is

Food’s only job is as fuel for your body so you can thrive.

That’s it.

Food is fuel. Period.

The best way to lose weight is to change your mind

Once you change your mind about food’s role in your life, a few things will happen:

• you will free yourself from food fear and obsession.
• you will heal your relationship with yourself and with food.
• you will lose the excess weight and you’ll be able to keep it off without struggle or strife.

Do yourself a kindness and change your mind right now.

The best way to lose weight is to remind yourself

Food is fuel and that’s all it is.

• Food is fuel.
• Food is fuel.
• Food is fuel.

That’s a mantra I live my life by now.

Food is fuel needs to be your mantra too.

Get off the diet-go-round. Get on with your life.^®

Stop wishing, start doing.
Create your own weight loss before and after success story.

My weight loss transformation & how it can help you have successful weight loss stories

You absolutely can break the diet cycle. I got free. Your life can be that way too.

I made my own path because I needed to get myself out of the crazy-making behavior I was having around food. I needed:

• no more dieting.
• no more restrictive eating.
• no weighing and measuring food.
• no off-limit foods.
• no more judgment around food.
• no more trying to figure out healthy eating or just what healthy foods to eat.
• no more judging my self-worth based on the scale.
• no more you’re-not-doing-it-perfectly diet rules that were only fueling my constant thinking about and obsession with food.

I needed to stop: searching for weight loss tips, wondering how to lose belly fat fast or how to lose weight fast, worrying about how to eat healthy or finding healthy snacks for weight loss, coming up with yet another healthy eating plan, trying to have quick weight loss, or forcing myself onto yet another weight loss diet. What I needed instead was to find, out of all the weight loss programs out there, the best weight loss program for me. Turns out, the best way to lose weight was to find out what works for me and do that.

• I’ve lost 160+ pounds naturally by simply trusting myself and listening to my intuition (mindful eating and eating intuitively).
• I have maintained that weight loss for 10 years and counting by trusting myself and listening to my intuition (mindful eating and eating intuitively).
• I no longer have any eating disorders, including bulimia (bulimia nervosa) and binge eating disorder (compulsive overeating).
• I no longer have a fear of food.

Just imagine what you could be doing with your life if you’d just commit to having your own before and after weight loss success story. You could be: following your own dreams and reaching your own goals, cultivating your own passions, and making both your inner and outer worlds a more blissful and peaceful place.

I got that for my life. I want it for yours. I will teach you how.
