Acceptance

Do you accept yourself as you really are?  Are you prepared to do it?

In order to find the life of your dreams, you have to be willing to live it!  When we shame ourselves, we hide ourselves.

What would accepting your body look like?  What if you knew that, your weight would never change from what it is now?  How would you act and feel?

Initially, you might feel depressed or sad if you are unhappy with your body.  But you have a choice.  You CAN embrace your body - as it is. right now.  I know you can because I DID.  It wasn't easy at first.  But then it became fun.



That is what EMB asks you to do!  Embrace your body as it is now.  Stop waiting to live life.  Stop waiting to date, go dancing, workout, get a new job, move, travel because you have weight that you want to lose.  Instead, I dare you to do ALL of it, without trying to first lose weight.

What you'll find, as I did, is once you live life and stop obsessing over your body, you find more joy and pleasure than you ever believed was possible!

Embrace Your Body today!

Fear of being fat

what do you do if you constantly fear that you'll be fat?


I get asked this question very often. And what I found is that the more you fear weight gain, the more you draw that to you. Have you ever heard of the law of  attraction? Often times we attract the things that we dwell on most. The more you think about how big your thighs are or how many calories this chocolate bar you're eating has, the more likely you're going to eat more, dwell on it more, and subsequently, gain weight.

So what does EMB prescribe? Well, just embrace your body. I know it sounds simple. I know it sounds a little crazy. And I know it's exactly the opposite of what you feel like doing. But it's the healthy way out. Hundreds of studies have shown that people who diet or worry about their weight tend to struggle with their weight. But those people embrace their bodies don't.

You should ask yourself this: what would I do if I had the body I really want? What would I do if I just embraced the body I have now.

Then list of all the things you would do if you were only thinner or if only you could control your diet. And then go out and do those things.   I know it's scary because you think that first you have to have the body of your dreams to in order to live life. But in reality when we live life the way were meant to, we will gain the body of our dreams.
