Testimonials
-
Being over 50, I almost gave up on losing weight and keeping it off. While working with Heather, I discovered what works best for me. Together we retrained my thinking and attitudes to bring about a healthy, sustainable way of life. I’ve lost 20 pounds. Exercise is now something I miss if I can’t do it, rather than something I resist. I feel energetic and hopeful about life. What a blessing!

“Food was my biggest problem. I’d cut out bread and sweets but go right back to them, rationalizing I deserved it. Working with Heather helped me understand why I was sabotaging myself and I learned to change my negative behaviors. I now enjoy food without over-eating. I’m stronger, have greater endurance and my clothes are loose! And I know have the internal resources to sustain this lifestyle.”

“For years I used food as a method of stress reduction or to reward myself when I was feeling down, which often left me feeling worse. With Heather’s help I have become mindful and prayerful when I eat so that I not only enjoy food but I eat just what my body needs. I feel strong, healthy and spiritually in tune with the body God has given me.”

FAQ
I KNOW WHAT TO DO. SHOULDN’T I BE ABLE TO DO THIS ON MY OWN?
I know it feels that way. And I trust there are many things you do well on your own. While you have the know-how needed to lose weight, you’ve experienced that’s not enough to achieve a long-lasting result. In coaching we dive deep in order to un-sabotage your efforts and turn the situation around.
Will you give me a diet to follow?
No! You’re done with diets (right?!). The failure rate is depressing. (And no, a diet doesn’t “work” just because you once lost weight on it.) You will learn to reconnect with hunger and fullness and to eat foods that you enjoy and that nourish your body. When you learn how to eat this way, your body will reach its ideal weight.
How is working with you different?
Most programs focus on behavior. My coaching process identifies what drives your behavior. You can only white-knuckle your way through this for so long. Eventually you get tired and just want a break. That “break” typically ends in bouts of over-eating and not taking care of yourself, leaving you worse off than before. My process gets the head game straight so that you can get back to living life and reach your body’s ideal weight.
Do you guarantee weight loss?
I wish I could. I promise to be 100% committed to the coaching process and to provide you with the best support in achieving your goals. That’s why I offer a free strategy session so that we can be sure we’re a fit together and that this program is the right solution for you. Weight loss is the result of many factors, none of which are in my control. I need you to also be 100% committed to the work that we will do together and be responsible for what you put into the process. That is the best guarantee of your success!
How are the sessions structured?
All coaching sessions are conducted over the phone or via Skype – your choice! How frequently we meet is driven by your specific goals and needs and will be determined during our initial strategy session.
