Fast Track Your Results With A Weight Loss Coach

By Aurelie Appasamy


Have you recently joined a gym or perhaps a personal training studio, you have hired a personal trainer and everything is fine however you notice that you just aren't as motivated as you used to be, you constantly have to rely on your trainer for motivation and just going to the gym is a constant battle? Or perhaps you exercise regularly and intensely at the gym, but when you get home you undo your had work by overeating? Do you have an eating plan perfectly laid out for you but you somehow just cannot follow that plan? Do you feel discouraged, frustrated and perhaps a little bit guilty about the whole situation? Do you feel discouraged by it all becuase even with the help of a personal trainer or nutritionist you know that there is still something missing and you know that things just aren't working out a 100%. And you are right, there is indeed something missing. See, while a personal trainer specializes in exercise and a nutritionist in healthy eating, these guys aren't really trained in human behavioral sciences and psychology. As a result they are unable to assist you with the behavioral challenges you are facing. Aurelie is a life coach and specializes in weight loss mindset and motivation. She is trained in NLP( Neuro Linguistic Programming) and her area of expertise is to helo individuals overcome self-sabotage which is the biggest cause of failure in people attempting to lose weight despite the help from other weight loss professionals.

As a former fitness model, Aurelie has been involved in the weight loss industry and unfortunately currently the system is incomplete. There are three pillars to weight loss. First is nutrition, Second is exercise and third is the mindset. Unfortunately the conventional weight loss system only focuses on nutrition and exercise which is why that approach often provides poor results or the results obtained are sustainable. The mindset is indeed the most important thing not just in order to succeed but to also maintain that success. There is a misconception that having the right mindset is only a matter of staying positive. But that isn't true. In order to create the right state of mind for success you must first obtain a very high level of self-awareness which includes examining your deepest desires, fears, your underlying motivators, your values, the meaning you have assigned to past events. A weight loss coach can help you with the above so that you can finally gain more clarity around your own behaviours.

A weight loss coach will assist you look at various areas of your life to determine where the underlying issue could be coming from.

If you are not happy about your weight and body image right now, chances are you are also not happy in other areas of your life as well due to your weight. For instance your weight may be affecting your self esteem which is in turn affecting your relationships. This occurs because we are holistic individuals and every aspects of our lives is related to each other. This also means that if you aren't happy with your body image and health, chances are there is something else impacting on your weight and health. It could be lack of fulfillment in your job, it could be lack of recognition, needs not being met in the bedroom. Aurelie can work with you individually and help you uncover the underlying source of your weight issues. Aurelie will assist you wil various areas of your life as well and help you have more life satisfaction.

A weight loss coach is results and outcome oriented. The aim of life coaching is to assist a client set goals that will bring them closer to their desired outcomes and eliminate barriers such as self-sabotage and fears. This is the difference between a motivational weight loss coach and other weight loss professionals which tend to act as adviser and tell you what to do. A weight loss coach assist you to set your own goals rather than telling you what to do. There is also major differences between coaching and therapy. Coaching isn't therapy or counseling. Therapy or counseling focus on past events and focus on finding answers or solutions from the past. Not much focus is placed on goal setting in therapy or counseling with very little orientation towards outcomes. Whereas coaching is very much goal, outcome and results oriented. Life coaching is designed to empower you to take action and is indeed one of the best ways to foster personal development and enhance performance.

A good life coach is compassionate. Understanding human behavior is a very useful tool in adopting a compassionate approach to weight loss. This is an area that unfortunately many weight loss professionals lack. For instance you personal trainer may not comprehend why you self sabotage? Why you struggle so much to follow your eating plan, why you lack the drive or incentive to exercise, why you are not consistent with your routine. And this is also why there are so many common myths in the weight loss industry. For example, if you aren't motivated to go to the gym then it is assumed that you are lazy. Of course this isn't necessarily the truth as there are certainly underlying causes to every behavior. A weight loss coach is trained and capable of helping you gain better understanding of yourself and raise your self-awareness
