How many times have you thought, if I could just eat “clean,” I could lose my weight?

I used to have these perfectionistic fantasies about eating clean, just meat and veggies. I would dream about how I would feel.

I went to a nutritionist once and did it.

But when life happened, when I ate pizza, I slowly went back to a full binge – eating all the things I could not eat on the “clean” diet.

Learning how to lose weight by enjoying your favorite foods is the only way I found to lose weight for the last time.

Learning how to pay attention and really enjoy your favorite non-fuel food and enjoying your fuel foods too.

Join me on today’s episode where we dive into how to enjoy food and still lose weight. No all or nothing here.

Transformational questions:

1. What are foods that you enjoy that you want to include in your plan?
2. Why is it important to you to lose weight in a way that you can always do?

You Will Discover:

• Why dieting, eating clean just...

How fast do you think you need to lose weight?

I used to give myself 6 months or a year. I watched Biggest Loser and had so many expectations of losing weight quickly. I thought I should be losing 5 pounds a week.
See, these expectations of time keep us stuck on the diet roller coaster. We tell ourselves that we can’t lose the weight and that we must restrict, use a food plan or over exercise.

I had to give myself time to lose weight, to learn how to change my mindset in the process.

How long have you been on the diet roller coaster?  I was on it for 38 years and it took me that long to lose weight for the last time.

Join me in this episode so you can learn how to lose it for the last time.

Here are this week’s transformational questions.

1. How long have you been on the Diet Roller Coaster?
2. How fast do you want to lose weight? – And then double it.
3. Write all the thoughts you have about changing your mindset and how hard it will be, then decide what you want to...

Join me in this episode as I talk about the five phases of permanent weight loss stages. Some ladies get stuck in phase two or three and they keep going back and forth. This is the diet roller coaster. I was on this dreaded diet rollercoaster for almost 38 years. And I know how difficult it can be, how frustrating it can be. And I want to just share with you these five phases so that you can decide where are you and where do you want to be.

Listen in as I dive deep into these five phases. You will learn how to take that fear and confusion and turn it around and do something different. I will teach you about your “Lizzie” phase, and how it can lead to the next phase. I will teach you how to change your mindset and to learn how to believe new things.  Let me show you how failure and challenges are just part of the process. You will also learn that these phases can work for anything in your life, not just weight loss.  I want to teach you to get off the diet...

Join me in this episode as I dive deep into how to show up for yourself now and not waiting until the “right” time to lose weight. We have been on the diet roller coaster for so long we are so afraid of failing that we always put off even starting to show up for ourselves. We tell ourselves it’s too hard, we don’t have time, we’ll just fail. Just give me a food plan or an exercise plan. But haven’t we already tried that? Isn’t that why you are here, to find something different, a better way?

Listen is as I teach you a new way to get off the diet roller coaster for good. How to do the mindset work. We have all had these beliefs for so long, it’s just like a record player playing in the back of our brain. We try the latest fad diet or exercise plan and we might even lose some weight, but then something stressful happens, because we haven’t worked on our mind, we give up on ourselves. Lizzie tells us to go back into the cave, where...

We are getting ready for some fun stuff in Transform. We are getting ready to do a five-day challenge. And you know, ladies, I love the five-day challenges. They are free. And this is how I like to do an immersive experience for free for ladies so they can get an introduction of this work. If you’re new to this work and you’ve never done a challenge, or I know we have lots of repeat challengers and some of my Transform ladies love to do them too – they just love the immersive experience – you can still register until May 22nd at bflycoaching.com/mayfun.

Are you an all or nothing kind of girl like I was? I mean that is how I labeled myself. I was either restricting or overeating, not much of that in between. And not just in dieting, but in other areas of my life too. Listen in to this episode as I teach you the difference between restriction and allowance. I will teach you what freedom really means. I will give you a tool to help you in your weight...

We are at episode 85. Can you even believe it? We are only 15 episodes away from 100 and we’re going to do something pretty special for episode 100. You will not want to miss it. In this episode we are talking about action and how it shows up in our weight loss journey.  First, let me share with you this story about when I hired a personal trainer. It was about 14 years ago. She was super fit and nice. I showed up for the first session, and she measured me, gave me an exercise plan and a very strict, clean diet. At first I was very motivated. But you know how the story goes, after a few sessions, I just eventually quit, because I had not eaten as instructed, or not done all the exercises, and feeling guilty and shame. I had lost my “motivation.” But I learned I did not quit on her, I quit on me!

Join me in this episode as I dive deep into how to stop looking for that “motivation” and how to learn to keep commitments to yourself, which lead to...

In this episode I am talking about quick fixes and why they don’t work.  I have had a lifetime of them, almost 38 years to be exact. I would look for a diet or exercise plan. I would tell myself, just be good for a few months then you’ll lose your weight, and then everything will be okay. I even went to one of those places that had the packaged foods, you ladies know what I’m talking about. I had this idea if I just ate the food they gave me I would lose all the weight. But the food was not good. I think I ate the desserts and threw the rest away. See quick fixes, they focus on the outside, the food, the exercise, whatever it is. But what happens when you don’t like the food, or don’t stick to the exercise plan? You give up.

Join me as I dive deep into why losing weight is a long-term inside job. I will teach you how to lose weight for good and how to be patient with the process, giving yourself love and grace throughout the whole process. ...

Oh, love. It has been an exciting couple of weeks. We completed our live virtual event in Transform, had a birthday celebration at my house and almost finished with our new free course. I loved our Transform virtual event. We do this biannually and it’s for Transform members only. And it was so good. I loved every minute of it. I taught, I coached. I, you know, spent time with the ladies. I love watching ladies have success. And you know, so many of my ladies are having weight loss success, but it’s showing up in many other areas of their lives. They’re starting to show up for themselves. When I was getting ready for the Transform virtual event I was thinking about the emotions, that I would lean into the emotions that really helped me when I want to quit or when I want to give up or when I don’t want to do something. And today I want to share those five emotions with you. And these are five emotions to lean into whenever you’re trying to achieve any...

We are going to wrap up the fourth pillar in the Transform Cheat Code to Weight Loss, and it is success. Again, love we are in the middle of a four-part series and it is so good. If you’ve missed the previous three, you for sure want to go back.  Our brains are wired to look for danger, for all of our failures. Remember Lizzie wants to keep us safe. So when you start to have some success, then Lizzie starts to tell you all the reasons why you can’t do something. She tells you how you’re going to fail. This pillar is so important in your weight loss journey.

Join me tonight as I talk about the two components for success. I will teach you two tools for setting yourself up for success. You have to become the scientist of your own body and figure out what foods fuel you and what foods do not.  It is different for everyone.  I will show you how to look for your success instead of focusing on what we “should be” doing or what we’re not...

We are in the middle of a four-part series on the cheat code to weight loss. And today we are getting into the third pillar, immersion. When I was first learning this work, the work of changing and being aware of my mindset, it was over whelming. It seemed like so much, it felt like a lot. When I was thinking back to that time, I remember going through my coach’s course like 15 times. I just kept playing all of the different videos over and over again. I was immersing myself in the work. When you become disconnected from the work Lizzie will tell you all the reasons to just quit on yourself. Remember, our brain is always seeking pleasure and avoiding pain. So our brains are trying to pull us back into the cave.

Join me tonight as I teach you how my Transform bosses are learning to be successful in their weight loss. How doing all the little things throughout the day can bring you success and you can lose weight for good. How you can decide on purpose how are you going...
