"I released 14 pounds"
After a lifetime of emotional eating and yo-yo dieting, this 62-year-old vegetarian discovered conscious eating through Wildfit. She released 14 pounds, transformed her relationship with food, and finally learned to love and nurture herself.
Before this program, I ate pretty healthy and was a vegetarian. However, I was unable to release weight and was eating a lot and mostly unconsciously. This quest popped up and I listened to Eric’s masterclass. I had taken a course through Mindvalley in the fall called Conscious Uncoupling, which pretty much explains itself in the title.
I am 62 years old and have been an emotional eater most of my life. Yo-yoing weight throughout the years. After listening to Eric’s talk I wanted to become a more conscious eater and with that came learning to Love myself by educating myself and feeding myself nourishing food. I am not sure if I had the keto flu or the covid 19 virus. The symptoms seemed pretty much the same. I felt terrible and utterly exhausted. My body began to heal itself. And I think it wasn’t worse, because, I was feeding myself wholesome good food! And learning not to stuff myself with nutritionally empty calories. I believe through Wildfit’s healthy conscious eating program I began nurturing and Loving myself, finally at 62!
During the challenge, I released 14 pounds of my 20 goal weight. And tomorrow I am going to the doctor to test my thyroid and see if I can lower or get off my meds. Through this course I learned not to be so critical of myself if I slipped up a day. And the fact that I finished the 3 months, lost weight, learned a new healthy lifestyle I feel I can maintain has helped me through this lonely pandemic isolation. It has also shown me it is ok to be fabulous! I am very proud of myself and the new image I have of myself. I really can do anything if I have the desire the fortitude and a supportive tribe!
Thank you Wildfit for the wonderful nutritional educational quest and for the affirming experience these last months! I am very very Grateful for new friend, new body, and a new healthy lifestyle!!!
