👇🏻comment w/ another method you’ve tried to lose weight/get healthy that HASN’T worked.
•••
Unfortunately👆🏻is by no means an exhaustive list!
•••
When it comes to lasting weight loss/health, there are soooooo many bullsh*t methods out there that DON’T. WORK. LONG-TERM. •••
Why do we keep falling for them?
•••
Cause the BS methods are the same ones that bombard you on social media all damn day!
•••
Are ya REALLY gonna juice celery every day for the rest of your life? AreREALLY gonna spend your entire paycheck on supplements from now until the end of time??
•••
I’m not!
•••
When it comes to weight loss/health, I’m ONLY interested in the method that’ll allow me to say, “It’s a lifestyle, not a diet”—and actually MEAN it. FOREVER.
•••
I love wine and food waaaaaay too much to give ‘em up, and I also REFUSE to feel “guilty” every time I eat ice cream.
•••
Life’s too short for all of the bullsh*t methods that cause MORE stress, amirite?? 🙀

I JUST wanted to lose weight + get healthy.
•••
From 2009-2016, I believed sooooooo many of the messages out there (which I now know are total bullsh*t!).
•••
So I did alllll of the things I THOUGHT I should be doing (things I now know were total BS!).
•••
I thought that it was all about “calories in, calories out”...so I ate less and exercised more.
•••
I thought I was overweight because I lacked willpower and self-control...so I kept blaming myself and telling myself to “get it together.”
•••
I thought I needed to adopt an all-or-nothing approach...so every time I “cheated,” I felt like a failure.
•••
I thought exercise was my best bet for weight loss...so I made the elliptical my BFF and worked out 6ish times/week.
•••
I thought eating fat would make me fat...so I avoided extra virgin olive oil, butter, nuts, and fatty fish like salmon.
•••
No matter what I tried, I was still always 15-20 lbs overweight, exhausted, and hangry. (Fun fact: I carried an “emergency apple” with me at all times because I’d get so hungry that I couldn’t make it 30 min without a snack!)
•••
I was on a terrible hamster wheel.
•••
And It took me YEARS to figure out what ACTUALLY works in order to get off of it!
•••
Now, I’m able to effortlessly maintain my ideal weight. And I have more energy and better overall health markers at 34 than I did at 24!
•••
When it comes to health and weight loss, there’s so much BS out there. Because fads, restrictive diets, and gym memberships are SHINY and PRICEY.
•••
You know what’s NOT shiny and pricey?
•••
What ACTUALLY works:
🍿➡️🥒 Swapping processed foods for real, whole foods.
💯 Counting nutrients, not calories.
😴 Prioritizing sleep.
💆🏻‍♀️ Managing stress.
💜 Adopting a self-love, growth mindset.
•••
If you’re in the same boat I was 10 years ago, I feel for ya. And I’m also here for ya!!
•••

Seriously though.
—
There’s so much bullsh*t (yup, I said it!) out there for “getting healthy.”
—
The reason so many messages + methods are BS is bec they’re often not research-based, sustainable, personalized, and/or holistic.
—
If you work better with examples (like I do!), here are a few:
—
BS Message + Method #1: When it comes to weight loss, it’s all about “calories in, calories out”...so eat less and exercise more.
—
BS Message + Method #2: If you’re overweight, it’s because you lack willpower and self-control...so get yourself together.
—
BS Message + Method #3: Sugar and refined carbs are the devil...so you should never eat ice cream, cookies, pasta, or pizza EVER. AGAIN.
—
BS Message + Method #4: If you haven’t been able to attain/maintain your ideal weight and feel great, supplements can help...so go spend your entire paycheck at Vitamin World.
—
BS Message + Method #5: When it comes to getting healthy, the only thing that works is an all-or-nothing approach...so if you “cheat,” you’re doomed.
—
Comment with a 🙄 if you’ve subscribed to one of the above in the past!
—
I’ve fallen for ALL 5!! 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
—
But now: EW, EW, EW, EW and EW!!!!!
—
Here’s a new message + method for ya:
—
When it comes to weight loss + wellness, what ACTUALLY works is what’s sustainable for YOU. So figure out a habit that’s sustainable, do it over and over and over, and wait for the magic to happen!
—
Can’t figure out which sustainable habit you should start today?? Schedule your FREE consultation (top link in my bio @thehealthinvestment) and we’ll figure it out together! 😘

I accepted the challenge.
👊🏻
When @casacoldbrew and I moved to Oakland 10 weeks ago, we had to furnish our apartment from the ground up.
—
On a budget.
—
A tight budget.
—
So I scoured the Internet for deals, and here’s what I realized:
—
More often than not, the furniture items marked down the most were the ones with review like this:
—
“Great piece. Sturdy. Beautiful. Love it! But it’s not worth buying because my husband and I could BARELY assemble it after spending HOURS and HOURS working on it together. Don’t waste your time.”
—
Challenge. Accepted! 💪🏻
—
I LOVE assembling furniture (call me crazy!) because I get to turn a chaotic mess into a trusty creation.
—
Whenever @casacoldbrew offered to help, I’d say, “NO THANKS!”
—
I like to do things ALL. BY. MYSELF.
—
Which is why—a few years ago—I was determined to figure out how to lose those pesky extra pounds and get healthy WITHOUT help.
—
That’s because I didn’t know it’d take me hours and months and YEARS to determine what ACTUALLY works.
—
There’s so much nutrition/health/wellness mumbo jumbo (a.k.a. bullsh*t) out there that it’s nearly impossible to piece together what ACTUALLY works all by yourself.
—
And in the process, you stumble upon a lot of BS approaches that only yield short-term results.
—
🙋🏻‍♀️ I know this from personal experience! And so do you!!
—
You’ve been in the I-wanna-lose-weight-and-get-healthy-but-can’t-seem-to-figure-out-how-to-do-so trenches for waaaaay too long.
—
Don’t worry. I’ve got you!
—
If you’re ready to get healthy for good without the BS, DM me something like, “SOS” or “HALP” and we’ll hop on a free call together.
—
I’m here for ya ♥️
