I can move outside my comfort zone and I can achieve my heart's desires. I no longer feel hopeless. I believe in myself and feel excited!

I felt my life was completely out of control and in chaos. My life revolved around my job with no self-care, clear values or life purpose. I developed an eating disorder that spiralled when I got stressed, which created more stress due to weight gain.

Having a heightened awareness of how my thoughts and actions influence everything I experience in life was a big change. My words and actions need to be congruent, including my internal and external words and stories so that I can live in alignment with what I want now and into the future.

Because of 'Design Your Best Year,' I am actually able to 'Design My Best Life'. I'm so happy that I now have the tools to step into a positive future! This program turned my life around!

I was frustrated with my lack of progress. I’m excited & confident to take consistent action without stress.

I didn’t realise that the narrow view of what I should and shouldn’t be doing was affecting my life and causing my frustration with my lack of progress. I am more aware of why I was taking certain actions and why. It has taught me that by taking consistent action I can create new habits and sustain them long term. I’m excited and it feels great! It made me much more confident as I can see a way forward into the future and what I could achieve.

I always failed and let myself down = comfort eating.
EMPOWERING! That is one word I heard at the start. Achieving that feeling is amazing! I am present, feeling my emotions & I am EMPOWERED!

I had so many mind blowing moments! I really learnt what was driving the past me and what I need to do to move towards a future I know I will be proud of. I can visualise it. I have taken back the power of my life!

It’s invaluable to simply be present, in the moments that really matter, to be able to name my emotions and feel them has allowed me to no longer block my feelings with food. I now work through them and have clarity. Being aware of what’s going on under the surface is the biggest change that will heal my relationship with food.

I was also blown away by how much of my attention I was giving away. This is another game changer.

Small, easy actions lead to successes immediately.

The small, imperfect actions that were provided. They were 'easy' to implement and I saw successes
immediately.

I have all the knowledge and tools to make sustained, real changes in my life. It is up to me to do so.

Loved, loved, loved the process! The experience is interesting… initially excitement and the feeling of the unknown. During the program, there’s a sense of fear that you won't get to Mission Accomplished. When the program is coming to an end, there is sadness and a feeling of . . . what next? I want to continue to do this work!

Struggling to stick to a weight loss plan! How did I ever think I would achieve goals with no time planned to do it?

I was struggling to stick to a way of eating and exercising that promoted health and wellbeing. I realised that I was still being influenced by some unhelpful (and untrue) mindsets.

I now feel positive and hopeful about the future and feel like I can do this! Less fearful of failure as I can use them to make me more resilient and stronger.

I can achieve what I want to. I know that I can direct my life if I schedule, plan, and anchor to why I am doing what I want to do.

I overcommit and my true values suffer. By consciously focusing on my values and prioritising them, I feel there’s more time in my life.

Being a perfectionist meant that I wouldn’t say ‘NO’, take on too much responsibility and not delegate enough. Being able to see the downside of how I approach things & the adverse outcomes, I can start the journey of change - understanding what's achievable & aligning my goals with my true values.

Identifying who I am, respecting that & starting to build the bridge to make the journey a more positive one feels empowering. I feel more confident and I am using the knowledge and tools personally, and at work.

Perfection is stopping my progress

I had some big aha moments: That I am self sabotaging by seeking perfection and not allowing myself to learn and keep moving forward. The diet industry is just trying to make money from marketing.

I can rewire and change my food relationship for good. I can move forward from my own space, take steps to create a positive future and not compare myself with other people and their journey's.

How to manage impulse eating without restriction or forbidden foods.

Difficulty understanding why I was not able to stick to a program of diet or exercise.

It is empowering understanding the underlying physiology and psychology factors of binge eating and learning how to control the impulse eating. As a result I am able to eat better, healthier and I am happier.

Procrastination - avoidance - guilt!
Now… In control, less pain, more energy & better food choices

Personal accountability is a huge concept and I am now being honest with myself instead of avoiding and denying.

My health and fitness has improved. Getting out of bed in the morning has a lot less aches and pains. I have more energy and have a more positive outlook.

My food choices have changed dramatically! My willingness to let go of guilt over food and my weight and be satisfied at reaching 80% rather than 100% gives me permission to learn. I feel so much more in control of my life.

Overeating, bingeing & night-time eating. Understanding ‘why’ is helping me gain control & manage my triggers.

I realised that I have had a poor relationship with food for over a decade that begins with my family history. I have used food for every excuse under the sun except I haven’t used it for nutrition. I overeat, binge eat and eat at night.

I realised that food can’t solve my problems and make me happy. The program has helped me to understand ‘why’ I have the issues with food that I do and become aware of things that I didn’t know about.

Imperfect action is better than no action!

Feeling as though I was stuck, as though my life hadn’t really progressed in years. Lack of self-esteem holding me back from growth.

The stories I was telling myself were all very negative, my language was very negative. The program allowed me to see this and to begin to change the stories towards more neutral and positive. I’m more capable of controlling my life and I can decide how to see a situation.

A zillion failed diets lead to fear of failing and food confusion.
Knowing ‘why’ provides hope, empowerment and happiness.

I was so afraid that this was going to be another failure to add to the pile of failed diets.

I have learnt a lot about myself! I don't need to self medicate with food if I am feeding my body with what it needs for brain chemistry. I'm NOT a failure or lost cause with food, I can continue to learn and make changes that support my health and it does not mean I have to go without!

I have a clear path forward and don’t have to live in denial. I can make lasting changes!

High levels of stress, distorted and confused view of food and trouble turning knowledge into action. I am happier, more relaxed and capable of more than I thought. I can succeed and make it simple.

I am truly amazed by how much I learned in just 10 weeks. I learned how food, mindset and brain chemistry affect my mood, bloating, and stress. This is manageable by creating balance and systems. Now I don’t think about food all of the time.

There were so many aha and self-discovery moments:
● Stress is the #1 problem in my life;
● I can eat less and feel satisfied;
● I can eat carbs;
● Eating breakfast makes me a happier person.

I can maintain a better relationship with food for the rest of my life by staying connected and celebrating my wins!

I didn’t realise how ‘beige’ my diet had become and lost sight of how tasty ‘real’ food is. I wasn’t connected with food so I was prepared on a daily basis and this led to frustration and decision fatigue.

Now, I focus on taking small imperfect action everyday to keep the progress up. By having a planning and preparation system it’s reduced the stress of making decisions on what to eat and when. This means more consistent eating.

My clothes fit better and I have more energy.

I needed my daily fix or internal panic would hit! Now…. I don’t have the cravings or FOMO - I look forward to healthy options.

I was confused, frustrated and felt like a failure. I had tried and failed at so many different diet fads to try to get to look a certain way (how I used to). My confidence was shot and I didn't like the person I was.

My biggest change has been my eating choices. I have improved what I eat and how much and this has improved my health - physically and mentally. As a result, my confidence and happiness within myself are coming back. I have now got this!

I was overwhelmed at how I have let this happen to me (my size) and more overwhelmed at the task of 'dieting' and trying to lose weight. In less than 10 weeks, there’s been a huge mindset shift - my mind is calmer, clearer and excited to be thinking about food. I have also lost weight!
