Julie's Lifelong Struggle with Body Image and Restrictive Eating
Julie struggled with weight and body image issues most of her life. A former paleo-diet enthusiast and Cross-fitter, she had tried LOTS of things (i.e. restrictive things!) to punish her body into becoming smaller. And it always worked… Until the inevitable rebound. Julie could never find anything that was sane, sustainable, and that allowed her to actually *maintain* her fat loss.
Julie Finds Balance365's Unique Approach
After navigating the body image challenges associated with pregnancy and childbirth, Julie found the body positive movement. This is when she started realizing she could actually be proud and loving towards her larger body.
However, Julie felt conflicted. She felt uncomfortable in her body and wondered if there was a way to marry her desire to be kinder to herself AND lose weight.
After finding out about Balance365 she realized... There might be a way. She joined and never looked back.
Julie’s 3-Phase Process For Losing 100lbs
Julie’s transformation required her to commit to small mindset and habit changes every single day. Before Julie started experiencing fat loss, she did a lot of internal work to set herself up for success (work that our coaches are experts at guiding you through!)
Redefining Self Worth
She let go of the belief that she was only worthy of self-love if she was at a certain weight. She started approaching health from a holistic perspective- which included getting treated for ADHD.
Embracing Balanced Eating
She focused on allowing herself to include all foods in a balanced and nourishing diet. No more low carb or Paleo restrictions. Just simple, balanced nutrition and trusting the behavior change process.
Conquering Emotional Eating
After realizing she used food to cope with difficult emotional experiences, Julie learned new emotional eating strategies so she wasn't relying on her old go-to, food.
Julie’s Life NOW, 100lbs Down
Now, down 100lbs, Julie feels like she’s finally living the life she was meant to have, in a body she feels comfortable in. It wasn’t a quick fix. It wasn't following a “one size fits all” formula. It required Julie to dig in and accept she needed the structure and support of Balance365 and our world-class coaches to un-learn old beliefs and patterns, to work (imperfectly!) at her health commitments, and to find the deep knowing inside herself that she deserved more.
