How A Weight Loss Coach Can Accelerate Your Results

By Aurelie Appasamy


Have you recently joined a gym or perhaps a personal training studio, you have hired a personal trainer and everything is fine however you notice that you just aren't as motivated as you used to be, you constantly have to rely on your trainer for motivation and just going to the gym is a constant battle? Or perhaps you exercise regularly and intensely at the gym, but when you get home you undo your had work by overeating? Do you have an eating plan perfectly laid out for you but you somehow just cannot follow that plan? Do you feel discouraged, frustrated and perhaps a little bit guilty about the whole situation? Do you feel discouraged by it all becuase even with the help of a personal trainer or nutritionist you know that there is still something missing and you know that things just aren't working out a 100%. And you are right, there is indeed something missing. See, while a personal trainer specializes in exercise and a nutritionist in healthy eating, these guys aren't really trained in human behavioral sciences and psychology. As a result they are unable to assist you with the behavioral challenges you are facing. Aurelie is a life coach and specializes in weight loss mindset and motivation. She is trained in NLP( Neuro Linguistic Programming) and her area of expertise is to helo individuals overcome self-sabotage which is the biggest cause of failure in people attempting to lose weight despite the help from other weight loss professionals.

What seems to be the common approach of the conventional weight loss industry are the exercise and eating plans. While exercise and nutrition are certainly essential components of weight loss, those alone aren't enough. There is indeed a more important component to weight loss which is the mindset. I am sure that you would agree with me, that despite all the knowledge on fitness and diets, without the right mind frame, you will keep struggling. Ain't am right here? Here's the thing about mind frame. It is not enough to try and stay positive all the time. Even staying positive is a struggle in itself. Adopting a mindset for success isn't that simple, it requires time , effort and the help from a trained mindset specialist such as Aurelie Appasamy. Aurelie will help you gain better understanding of your own behavior, your decision making strategies and your patterns and will also help you overcome any mental obstacles that gets in your way.

We are holistic individuals therefore a weight loss coach uses holistic methods to weight loss.

If you are not happy about your weight and body image right now, chances are you are also not happy in other areas of your life as well due to your weight. For instance your weight may be affecting your self esteem which is in turn affecting your relationships. This occurs because we are holistic individuals and every aspects of our lives is related to each other. This also means that if you aren't happy with your body image and health, chances are there is something else impacting on your weight and health. It could be lack of fulfillment in your job, it could be lack of recognition, needs not being met in the bedroom. Aurelie can work with you individually and help you uncover the underlying source of your weight issues. Aurelie will assist you wil various areas of your life as well and help you have more life satisfaction.

There are similarities between weight loss coaching, therapy or counseling or the approach taken by other conventional weight loss professionals such as nutritionist and personal trainers. First of all all three approach provides a supportive environment for it's clients. Each approach focus on motivating clients to succeed. Each approach have a goal setting component to it. The differences between weight loss coaching and other weight loss methods are that dieticians and PT tend to adopt an adviser role whereby they provide you with advise of the best way to lose weight. Coaching is different in the sense that it focus on gaining clarity around the steps to take as well as possible challenges and how to overcome those challenges. Therapy and counseling focuses more on healing the past. While coaching also pay some attention to past events, coaching mostly focuses on outcomes and is rather results orientated.

A weight loss coach such as Aurelie Appasamy is also compassionate. Compassion comes from understanding a behaviour without judgement. A fantastic life coach is extremely compassionate because she understand and is trained in human behaviour. This is something that many weight loss professionals lack as they lack the ability to dig deeper into human behaviour. Tell me does your personal trainer really understands why you self-sabotage? Does he or she really understands why you don't stick to your eating plan? Why you have those cravings or eat emotionally? The problem is when we are unable to comprehend something, we make assumptions and there are some very common assumptions made in the fitness industry. For instance, if you aren't able to stick to a program, you must lack will power, if you lack motivation to exercise then you must be lazy, if you are overweight then you must be disorganized. These are all common misconceptions and assumptions made which of course isn't true. There is a lot more behind the scenes and a weight loss coach trained in human behaviour knows this. A coaching environment is a safe and judgement free zone, where you can explore freely without being judged and where you do not need to be afraid of making mistakes.
