Weight Loss Unmasked with Erica Gurrieri29 Dec 2022

Is Perfection Creating Your Weight Loss Problems?

You have it all figured out. Your weight loss plan has everything from coaches to a nutrition plan and rigorous exercise schedule. How can anything go wrong?

Although your plan may be well thought out, the perfectionism that's required of these commitments can create an extreme amount of pressure, even if it's just pressure on yourself. The result: mistakes, missteps and feelings of failure.

Grace--or leeway--as you begin your weight loss journey can help you adjust to these plans and even assess if they're the right fit for you. By giving yourself some space to get used to your new lifestyle choices, both physically and mentally, you are much more likely to stay dedicated to your actions and to achieve your goals.

What does "giving yourself grace" actually look like?

Speaking kindly to yourself, rather than constantly criticize any shortcomings.
Evaluating "why" you may have come up short or made a mistake in order to prevent it from happening again.
Assessing and pivoting or recommitting to your weight loss plan(s) to ensure you're expectations are reasonable and your plans are attainable.
