How many times in your life have you tried to lose weight using restrive diets such as keto, Weight Watchers, the no-carb diet, and so on? How many times have you told yourself, “I’ll start again on Monday?” How many January’s are you going to restrict yourself from carbs and cookies? For the majority of the people, this NEVER works. Fad diets and diet culture deliver false promises and show us testimonials of former clients on day 28, but what they don’t talk about is what happened on Day 31. 

In this episode, Kim and Cassie discuss why women need to do the inner work of understanding and nurturing their bodies and how to get off the struggle bus when it comes  to achieving our wellness goals.  Cassie’s approach is centered around NOT counting calories, NOT stepping on a scale daily, and NOT restricting ourselves from certain food groups. Instead, she offers us a healthy and feel-good solution to achieving our optimal health and wellness goals.  She explains why we must stop utilizing a “one-size-fits-all” approach when trying to lose weight and change our bodies and instead create a sustainable lifestyle that truly fuels us.

What You’ll Learn From This Episode:

• Why it’s important to dissociate diet with body image and body size
• Why diet culture and fad diets are terrible for you, and why they don’t work
• Why cutting out entire food groups and restricting yourself leads to future weight gain and feelings of guilt, shame, and depression.
• What companies and culture do to trick you into thinking their food is healthy.
• The simple formula for creating nutrient-rich balanced meals that maintain blood sugar levels and keep you satisfied.
• The Protein – Healthy Fats – Fiber Formula that will blow your mind when it comes to meal planning and staying satiated.
• Why building lifelong sustainable healthy habits is possible without all of the guilt and the strict rules
• A simple plan for achieving your wellness goals

“Are you truly building lifelong sustainable health habits or are you finding a quick fix diet for 30 days, and on Day 31, you run out to grab a box of doughnuts because you’ve completely restricted yourself for the last month? This approach doesn’t work.”  Cassie Riley
