Together we would...

A: So glad you are curious! First off, those types of meals that programs provide you to eat are not very tasty, do not provide flexibility, and are not sustainable for when you simply don’t want that food, go on vacation, go out to eat, etc. And they negatively impact your relationship with the joy, creativity, and mindfulness of preparing your own meals. Also, would you eat those for the rest of your life? If not, you will likely stop seeing these results when you stop the diet.

Also, these types of programs do not address anything besides what you are putting in your mouth and unrealistic expectations around exercise. I would hope you see so much more in the Wellpower Method outside of those two things. The Method addresses mental health, emotional health, stress, sleep, hormonal health, mind-body work, routines and habits, the root of thoughts, actions, and behaviors, self-awareness and self-control, personal development, and so on. All those factors impact what we chose to eat. So it doesn’t matter how perfect of a “plan” you have because if one of those aspects of life is ignored, the rest will come crashing down.

Does your friend plan to never eat fruit, sugar, pasta, rice, and bread for the rest of their life? Would you want to do that? Those diets ruin your relationship with food– negatively impacting quality of life. On top of that, once you start eating them again, you will gain the weight back instantaneously.

Restricting and cutting out food helps with immediate weight loss, as you are seeing right now with your friend. But then it negatively impacts our hormones putting our body into a hypo-metabolic state– slowing metabolism down and holding onto fat. This is why you see people lose weight and then eventually gain it back.

So here’s what I think: if you want immediate weight loss and don’t mind what the program does to your quality of life and also not see sustainable change, then that program may be for you!

But if you want to transform your life for good while holistically addressing every area that impacts your health and happiness, and wish to create a life filled with solid habits and routines that bring out your happiest healthiest self while fueling your body and feeling your best, all while slowly but surely meeting body composition goals that will stick then the Wellpower Method is made for you.
