Episode 279: How Stefanie Overcame Her 'Free for All' with Food and Lost 55lbs with Balance365 Jul 05, 2023

Show notes

Episode Overview

Meet Stefanie, a busy, full-time working mom. Several years ago, Stefanie made the smart decision to ditch the toxic fad dieting cycle. But, as many women do, she was catapulted to the other end of the eating spectrum and found herself stuck in another cycle she couldn't seem to exit: a free-for-all with food.

After a sobering visit with her doctor, Stefanie knew she couldn't continue the trajectory she was on with her health. She decided it was time to join Balance365 but, as you'll hear, she had reservations. Weight loss without restriction sounded too good to be true. Since then, Stefanie has learned it's absolutely possible. She's reclaimed her health, awakened her love of exercise, radically changed her mindset and relationship with food, and has lost 55lbs.

We hope you'll find inspiration in Stefanie's story. Enjoy!

If you're interested in losing weight without restrictive dieting, get on our waitlist. Our life-changing nutrition coaching program opens on September 18th. We would love to see you there!

Episode 275: 5 Tips to Get More Fruits and Vegetables into Your Diet Jun 07, 2023

Show notes

Episode Overview

Today we're kicking off the first part of a brand new "how-to" series! Last week we discussed quite a few evidence-based nutrition recommendations for women, specifically menopausal women. But if there's anything we've learned as nutrition coaches for the last eight years, we know that knowing WHAT to eat for health and weight loss is different from actually putting it into practice.

So today, we're discussing tried-and-true methods to help you actually DO IT, not just talk about it! Eating more fruits and veggies might sound basic and simple, but it's something that we find almost all of our new Balance365 members can benefit from, so this episode is for everyone!

If you loved this episode, and are ready to pursue your weight loss goals in more simple, sustainable ways, check out our free course, Cut the Crap: How to Simplify Weight Loss and Get Out of Your Own Way. It's packed with actionable tips and advice that you can start implementing today. It's available on-demand, so you can work through it at your own pace!
