Two reasons why I don't recommend weight loss pills and why you shouldn't take them

I'm a weight loss fraud...

Yup, your Maintainable Weight Loss Coach is a FRAUD!

Why?

Because I've never been on a diet or taken weight loss pills to lose weight.

And you know what... I'm GLAD I'm a fraud...

I help all of my clients become weight-loss frauds too...

They stop...

• counting calories.
• measuring portion sizes.
• trying the latest diet craze.
• obsessing over food.
• trying to do insane exercise.
• starving themselves.
• gaining and losing and gaining and losing weight.

This ^^ is what our current weight-loss industry and culture is all about in the US and I won't have it.

If I'm out of this paradigm, then great. Call me a fraud and I'll take that name with honor.

In today's episode of Take Control Tuesdays I'm talking about the "two reasons I never recommend weight-loss pills and why you shouldn't take them" to achieve healthy, long-term and maintainable weight loss.

The easiest way to know if you're working-out hard enough to benefit from it

In today's episode I share the easiest and most cost-effective way to know if you're working out hard enough to benefit from your exercise.

But first, remember that if you have 70+ pounds to lose, exercise is NOT the most effective and important tool in your tool box to start losing 1-3 pounds a week. Exercise is more important to improve your mood, energy, sleeping better and the list of exercise benefits goes on.

It's a lot easier to start exercising and hard enough, once you're already feeling better from eating optimally and having lost some weight.  Once you're there or are ready to work on exercise, keep this easy, fun and evidence-based (1) tool in your pocket to ensure you're maximizing your workouts...
