What Women Who Struggle With Weight Have in Common

Hello! 

How are you feeling today? Are you currently struggling with your weight, which impacts every area of your life or you just feel lost and having no idea what to do to feel and look how you want? 

Being there myself and now working with so many women, I have gathered information about common traits with women who struggle with their weight. 

I won’t be talking about self esteem, but about mindset issues and behaviours they practice every day. 

Women who struggle with their weight have following things in common: 

  • They are at the bottom of their priority list
  • They will do everything to make other people happy, but feel guilty to do something for themselves as they feel they don’t deserve it
  • Emotional 
  • They eat when they need a comfort or to feel safe
  • They have specific rules about food, trying to restrict or avoid certain foods and then they indulge in the excessive amount
  • They are very self critical and unforgiving for who they are and what they do every day
  • They seek distraction, to numb the emotional pain they are experiencing, by food, drink, TV, phone scrolling
  • Bedtime routine is all over the place, mostly staying up late and waking up feeling exhausted
  • No structure with eating. They eat randomly, without much thought and effort put into planning their day. 
  • They feel they are surviving each day with no end to their struggle. 
 
As you can see, there is a lot going on here for those women. 
I have been one of them and all I can say you can’t just focus on food and exercise here. It is so much more than that. 
Where can you start here? 

* Changing your priorities
* Self awareness
* Learning how to deal with their emotions, by establishing new ways to find comfort
* Get help and support to feel safe, where you can express how you feel and what is going on in your mind, and to be guided what you can improve to find yourself again. 

* Be patient with your process of understanding, learning, relearning, letting go of the old and embracing the new. 

* Self compassion is one of the key things to start your journey. Because without it you lose the focus on how much you, your health and your life deserve to improve. 

I wonder if this is something that has been playing on your mind? If you feel you need help and support to overcome this issue, I can definitely help.
