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 takes a rather holistic approach to weight loss. We are holistic individuals.

This means that if you feel unfulfilled in an area of your life, it will impact on other areas of your life as well. I am sure that right now you not being fulfilled in your health and body image is also probably affecting other areas of your life, perhaps your relationships, perhaps it's affecting your confidence which in turn is impacting on your career, your finances, your friendships and a whole lot of other things. And if you are not fulfilled in your health then chances are there are other things in other areas of your life that are impacting on your health and that's where everything is stemming from. A life coach helps you examine and look at various areas of your life to identify where the cause of your weight is stemming from and help you deal with that. As a result it's not only with your health that you see improvement but also in many other areas of your life. A life coach can help you achieve much more fulfilment in life.

There are a few differences between life coaching and therapy, counseling and advising. Many professionals such as personal trainers and nutritionist tend to take an advising role as they are going to give you expert professional advice on nutrition and exercise. However a weight loss coach does very little advising. A weight loss coach rather will work with you and ask you questions to explore your own goals, motives emotional barriers and will equip you with mindset tools to take action and succeed. Therapy on the other had tends to focus on past events or past traumatic events and has a healing component to it. Therapy isn't goal or outcome orientated but is useful in dealing with past traumatic events that may have been stored and are affecting your ability to deal with life. Coaching on the other hand has some healing components but mostly focus on goals and is outcome focused. Coaching is designed to help you set realistic goals and overcome the barriers or obstacles that gets in your way.

A weight loss coach such as Aurelie Appasamy is also compassionate. Compassion comes from understanding a behaviour without judgement. A fantastic life coach is extremely compassionate because she understand and is trained in human behaviour. This is something that many weight loss professionals lack as they lack the ability to dig deeper into human behaviour. Tell me does your personal trainer really understands why you self-sabotage? Does he or she really understands why you don't stick to your eating plan? Why you have those cravings or eat emotionally? The problem is when we are unable to comprehend something, we make assumptions and there are some very common assumptions made in the fitness industry. For instance, if you aren't able to stick to a program, you must lack will power, if you lack motivation to exercise then you must be lazy, if you are overweight then you must be disorganized. These are all common misconceptions and assumptions made which of course isn't true. There is a lot more behind the scenes and a weight loss coach trained in human behaviour knows this. A coaching environment is a safe and judgement free zone, where you can explore freely without being judged and where you do not need to be afraid of making mistakes.
