A Weight Loss Program That Provides Education and Support

If your emotions dictate when and what you eat, and you often rely heavily upon processed foods, adding unwanted pounds or feeling tired and unmotivated may have counteracted your plans to get into shape. Changing the way that you feel about food begins with an understanding of why you crave specific items. A high protein, low carbohydrate diet that implements unprocessed foods can help you transform your body and relationship with food.

Education and Support

Many people think that extensive exercise and cutting calories are the two main factors associated with losing weight. Although exercise is beneficial and will aid someone in their weight loss journey, changing eating patterns may be the most prominent adjustment that will help an individual meet their goal.

A health coach is someone who has an understanding of the nutrients that the human body needs. They have followed the same diet that they introduce to their clients. A coach will provide information about the effects of eating processed foods that contain empty calories.

A person's body type, age, and current health will be factored, to determine a caloric intake that will support weight loss. If any emotional triggers result when turning toward comfort foods, a health coach will help a client become aware of unhealthy eating habits and will outline some ways to satiate hunger throughout the day and night, without exceeding a targeted calorie count. 

Shopping Patterns and a Weekly Routine 

A health coach will guide you by preparing a shopping list and locating foods that are low in carbohydrates and that do not contain processed ingredients. Many grocery stores set their stores up similar to one another. Fresh, wholesome ingredients tend to be located along the perimeter of a store, and boxed and canned products that contain processed ingredients tend to be located in the aisles that comprise the center of a store.

Each week, a coach will present a  new challenge. A client may be instructed to omit a small number of ingredients for a week and to adjust their daily meal plan. In subsequent weeks, other foods may be introduced or a client may have the option of eating a couple of their former favorite treats. Diversity is critical in supporting someone's wish to switch to a new diet. As long as treats are consumed in moderation, they may be enjoyed occasionally.

A coach can help strengthen one's willpower to begin an exercise routine that will complement a new diet. Light exercises, such as walking or lifting hand weights can reduce the amount of time that it takes to lose weight. To learn more or join a program, contact local WildFit coaches.
