I have a deep appreciation for my life and the way I live now but it hasn’t always been this way. I have struggled with my weight and body image most of my adult life and in my thirties, I weighed more than 200 pounds.

 

My weight was a constant obsession. Sugar was my go to if I felt stressed or uncomfortable in any way.  I couldn’t understand why it was so easy for some and so hard for many of us to maintain a healthy weight.

 

Through intense and difficult dieting I managed to lose about 50 pounds and maintained that weight loss through most of my 40’s and into my 50's but It wasn’t easy. I went on numerous diets and binged and fasted in between. I was always white knuckling it and obsessed with what I was eating and what the number on the scale was.

 

All that changed a couple of years ago.

 

I began my hypnotherapy program and finally everything about my behavior around food made sense. I realized that my subconscious programming was overpowering my day to day willpower.
