Description

What if the thing standing between you and sustainable change isn't knowing what to eat?

What if it's how you talk to yourself when things don't go according to plan?

Amy Scott spent years riding the weight-loss roller coaster. She had struggled with her weight for much of her life, experienced some success with Weight Watchers, regained weight, and eventually reached a point where she wondered if there might be another way.

Then, at age 54, Amy lost 80 pounds.

But the biggest transformation wasn't simply what happened on the scale.

In this episode of Casa De Confidence, Julie sits down with Amy, founder of Lose It ForEver Weightloss Program, to talk about the mindset and daily practices that helped her create sustainable change and eventually become a certified life coach helping other women do the same.

Amy takes us back to a trip to the French Alps in her thirties when she wanted to ski but couldn't fit into the available ski boots. She remembers realizing she was too young to begin missing out on experiences she wanted to have.

It would still take years before she found an approach that worked for her.

Amy and Julie talk candidly about emotional eating, people-pleasing, menopause, body changes, self-confidence, GLP-1 medications, weight-loss surgery, habits, and why starting over every Monday can keep us stuck.

They also explore something that applies far beyond weight loss: what happens after you mess up?

Do you use it as evidence that you can't do this?

Or can you get curious, learn something, and choose the next best step?

Amy believes sustainable change isn't created by white-knuckling your way toward a number on the scale. It's built by practicing habits you can imagine continuing for the rest of your life.
