How Life Coaching can help with weight loss
Your life coach also holds a Diploma in Clinical Nutrition and she uses a combination of her understanding from the discipline of life coaching with her background in nutrition to draw up a coaching program for you that focuses on weight loss. This is commonly known as Diet Coaching and it's a weight loss method popular with celebrities. We're not here to tell you exactly what to eat - but we are here to support you in your weight loss goals and to make suitable recommendations.
At Shape It Up! we believe in sustainable weight loss - that is, weight loss that stays off, as opposed to temporary weight loss that comes from heavy dieting. We achieve this by looking closely at the reasons why you overeat as well as encouraging you to make the types of diet and exercise changes in your life that can become part of your newer, slimmer lifesyle.
The truth about weight loss is that to keep weight off long term you need to make a permanent commitment to your lifestyle and that is how we can help. By keeping you accountable, motivating and supporting you through those initial weeks of change you are more likely to find success in your hopes of losing weight and keeping it off.
Because we understand nutrition we will encourage you to maintain good nutrition while you are dieting so that you don't sacrifice your health for the sake of weight loss.
Most clients who undertake weight loss coaching also have a couple of other areas of their life they'd like to work on and we can include some general life coaching in your sessions for this purpose. When it comes to the different services we offer, it's entirely up to you which ones you want to include in your sessions.
