Summary
Imagine going from years of weight fluctuations, dieting, negative self talk and feeling like a ‘failure’ to confidently maintaining despite stress and constant challenges.
That’s Nikki’s story, and in this episode we dive into how she lost 10lbs and knows she’ll never diet again.
From not being able to brush her teeth every day, to creating a planking habit every time her son does.
From never being able to maintain any of the weight she’d loose from years of different diets, to now being ‘in the battle field’ of her journey but KNOWING she can keep going and finding it fun.
Nikki’s story is inspiring and has so many nuggets of wisdom to start making real changes, even if you feel overwhelmed and like you’ll never be able to get to the goal.
Her story is proof that our identity and behaviour can radically change when we have the right tools.
