Change The Mind. Change The Weight.

A weight loss programme cannot succeed without addressing thoughts and emotions.

Like many, I’ve struggled with weight. It’s a personal thing to admit. My own weight problems started after becoming a new mum. I was slowly sinking. Every now and then I could see myself becoming a distant version of my single youth, often thinking how did I get here? Pretty quickly everything became about weight, it consumed every aspect of life … relationships, self esteem, my social life. I tried various diets and medications, when I could be motivated enough. Each had some degree of success but eventually the weight came back on and more.

 

I eventually realised each of these programmes failed to address my triggers, my relationship with food and my stressors, causing me to seek comfort in eating. Having tried diet after diet, Atkins, WW, Slimming world, Hypnotherapy, Jenny Craig, you name it, I thought ‘hold on I’m a doctor, I know the human body better than anyone else!’ So I decided to create my own, The MindfulDoc Weight Loss Programme was born: Change the Mind, Change the Weight.

Through mindfulness mediations I completely changed my thoughts about food and dealt with those factors causing me stress in life. I knew stress caused the release of hormones in the body that worked against weight loss, so this is where I needed to start. It wasn’t an overnight change, after all I had 10 years of unhealthy habits to undo. But the weight started to come off. I suddenly was aware of feeling full, often leaving my plate with food still on it! When those things causing me stress surfaced I reacted to them differently, soon peace and contentment became the predominant feeling. I no longer felt the need to eat to feel better. At that time I didn’t enjoy working out either, yet I soon dropped a dress size.

As my mindset changed so did my feelings abut myself. I was no longer anxious at buffets or parties, I no longer felt deprived of foods, I retrained my thoughts and entered a relaxed state of being, which helped me to overcome binge eating and overeating. More importantly, I felt confident to have my picture taken! But it didn’t stop there, my relationships flourished, doors opened , new opportunities just presented itself.

After tweaking a few aspects of the programme I tried it on friends and family. Soon word spread rapidly of this no-diet no-exercise weight loss programme.

Since then I have helped countless of clients lose weight for good. My unique MindfulDoc Weight Loss Programme will do the same for you. You can use it alongside a diet or on its own, it will produce significant, lasting changes either way. A complete mind-body approach unlike any other programme.

If diets work then why are there over 100 diet programmes in existence?

Diets work against the human mind, having a list of banned foods cannot be sustained long term. Physiologically, when you diet your body thinks it is in starvation mode and paradoxically forces the body to hold onto weight. So … time to ditch the diet!


If you would like to enrol in my programme there are two options:

1) E-learning course you complete at your own pace over 6 weeks.

2) One to One 8 week Coaching Course with myself.

Both packages will give you great results and include mindfulness audio recordings (recordings are personalised on the 8 week course), presentations and handouts to strengthen your understanding and motivation. The course can be online or in person at one of the London clinics.
