Chrissie Webber works as a writer, business coach and motivation/ leadership trainer and is Managing Director of Life-Shapers Ltd, an online weight-loss motivation company. With over 20 years experience in the field of business and people development she has an expertise in the area of motivation for permanent weight loss.
Following a lifetime of weight issues - at her heaviest, over 21 stone and a massive size 30 – she has personal experience of diets and their devastating effect on size and psyche. With a background in nursing, psychology and business coaching, coupled with a lifetime of dieting, she developed and successfully used a series of models and tools that enhance weight loss motivation. Now over 5 dress sizes smaller and having sustained her weight loss for several years, Chrissie continues her passionate drive to change the mindsets of people away from a ‘Scarcity’ dieting mindset – where food is demonised as ‘good’ or ‘bad’ – to an ‘Abundance’ mindset where mind, body and spirit work hand in hand with food and nature.
“So how much do you weigh now?” That was the question I was asked recently. “What does it matter” was the response I wanted to give! The truth is I do not weigh myself.
Weight is the measurement on which your motivation depends if you possess that terrible instrument of torture – the weighing scales! Used daily it does more damage to the psyche than any other instrument. If it does not deliver the expected weight loss you want, the effects are devastating…
~ Emotional turmoil;
~ A feeling of failure;
~ A reinforcement of the belief you are ‘Not Good Enough’;
~ Increased unhappiness and stress;
~ A reversal of healthy eating for comfort eating; How crazy is that? Isn’t it time to start… ü Measuring life by happiness and not weight;
ü Measuring size by inches not pounds; ü Measuring health by energy and fitness;
ü Eating for love of self and not for comfort; ü Eating to live rather than living to eat. You really can find the weight you were born to be without the instrument of torture – the weighing scales!
