Hello, welcome to the Lean of Plants podcast. My name is Chelsea and if you are struggling to lose weight on a plant-based diet, then this podcast is for you. While there are thousands of books, podcasts and resources about the benefits of a plant-based diet, the reality is that being vegan does not

guarantee losing weight. If you are feeling frustrated and confused about where to start,

or you know exactly what you should be doing, but you just can't seem to rustle up enough

willpower to do it, then keep listening. In this podcast, you'll learn the

truth about plant-based weight loss, but just as importantly, how to use proven methods of

behavioural change to turn what you know into lifelong habits that lead to getting and staying

lean. Can't wait to get started. Let's do this. Hello, welcome to the podcast. I'm very excited for this one because there is a key difference

between people who fork off into lasting success from understanding how weight loss works and

then people who go and they stay stuck. And we've identified some of these patterns and the key

part seems to be going through these four stages that come before actually taking action.

And so this is going to be a replay of a live event that I did within our community where we go through these four stages.

I hope that it's going to be very helpful for you to identify what kind of mindsets you need to change in order to take the action required

to succeed. And without further ado, let's listen. Welcome everybody. I'm a little bit sick,

so excuse me for sneezing probably constantly and the way that like I look, a little bit of a

hotness right now, but I'm really excited for this live because we're going to be talking about a topic which I think is going to be very helpful for you.

And that's how we move from ignorance in terms of like what we're not doing right or like what kind of things we're clinging onto that are stopping us from achieving our goals, how to see like the truth that we need to, and then how to accept those things, and then how to take action on it. And this is something that I've been talking about of the coaches, because if we don't actually go through this four-step process, then it's very, very hard to take the final step, which is the action that is required to succeed. And if we don't take the action that's required to succeed then we're never going to actually achieve our goals so it's very

very important that we understand what is required and we actually accept it and I've spent a

lot of my life which I'm sure most people have here kind of just like burying my head in

the sand in terms of what I actually need to do. It's much easier to avoid something

than it is to accept it and then start making the change or to procrastinate it or all these things.

So very, very excited for this. Who's excited? Who's pumped? Okay, great. So we do a meeting every

week, myself with Janelle and Abby, your coaches. And we talk about how to improve
