Exercising all the time, restricted eating, and declining social plans that don’t give you enough control is not actually a healthy way to live your life. On this episode of Fed and Fearless, I’m joined by one of my students, Natali, to talk about her journey from restrictive and obsessed to relaxed and healthy. ABOUT NATALI Coming from a background in ballet, Natali had unrealistic and unhealthy body image viewpoints thrust on her all her life. She was always striving to lose weight, grinding away hours of her life at the CrossFit gym, never letting a carb pass her lips, and struggling to lose just a little more weight. Working together. Natali has realized that when she actually loosened control, worked out less, and ate a more balanced diet, she was able to lose the weight her body was holding on to, achieve a healthy balance, and, overall, is so much happier. The Fed and Fearless group coaching program was something Natali justified investing in when she compared the price to the cost of the supplements, gym and CrossFit memberships, and other outgoings she was spending in her quest for the perfect body. For Natali, she didn’t know what else to do. She was wasting so much time, energy, and money into a health and fitness routine that was consuming her and not giving her the results she wanted. That’s when we crossed paths; the investment was an easy decision for her and worth it because Natali gained not only her health but her life back. One of the aspects I teach in my coaching programs is how you can do the least amount possible to achieve the best results for your body. Natali realized that by cutting down the hours she spent in the gym, relaxing her meal planning, and actually spending time with her friends and family, she was able to feel happier, reach her healthy weight, and make time for the best parts of life. When Natali changed her mindset by working with me, participating in the group discussions, and trusting that God had set her on the right path, her life opened up for her. Relationships she’d neglected because she was at the gym flourished. She even started seeing a wonderful man, who she doesn’t think would have given the old Natali a second glance, and is looking forward to marrying him soon. Natali found a healthy balance between working out, eating well, and enjoying a wonderful life. What’s your relationship to the gym?
