6 Ways to Prevent Loose Skin After Weight Loss: What Helped Me While Losing 88lbs https://t.co/B4WJhQpu7s

One of my students enrolled in my course back in 2021. She just checked in to say she’s still maintaining her 30lb weight loss! Imagine being able to keep the weight off for years without doing anything drastic 🙌🏾

@RVAReid Walmart, ALDI, and many other local grocery stores have tons of fresh and frozen fruit and veggies.

YouTube has tons of free exercises videos. You don’t even have to leave the house to work up a good sweat.

[Natalie Butler | Behavioral Weight Loss Strategist @ChicagosNatalie]

@RVAReid There’s also a lot of misinformation and lack of information in our community. We think things are out of reach and don’t even try. Losing weight comes down to being in a calorie deficit. You don’t need expensive grocery stores or a gym to lose weight.

[Natalie Butler | Behavioral Weight Loss Strategist @ChicagosNatalie]

@RVAReid I get the sentiment but it doesn’t cover the issue that most people are overeating because they’re using food to cope with negative emotions such as boredom, loneliness, sadness, anger, etc. For many people, this has nothing to do with food/gyms but mental and emotional health.

It’s 2023, let’s normalize PROFESSIONAL MENTAL HEALTH THERAPY. You keep wanting to pray on it not realizing your prayer is being answered in the form of a licensed mental health professional. Don’t be afraid to accept the help you prayed for.

If you lost weight in 2022 and you gained it all back in 2022, please don’t go right back to doing what you did because it “worked.” More often than not, you’ll end up regaining it again. It’s time to switch strategies.

Fast weight loss facts:

Weight loss happens in the kitchen, not in the gym.
You cannot outrun a bad diet or lifestyle.
You don’t need to give up the foods you enjoy.
You don’t need detoxes/cleanses, wraps or teas.
You don’t need to “earn” food. You’re not a dog.

[Natalie Butler | Behavioral Weight Loss Strategist @ChicagosNatalie]

Please stop saying you need motivation to make yourself miserable. It’ll never come and if it did, it won’t last. Instead of dieting, think about the bigger picture.

Get rid of that all or nothing mentality. It’s causing you to sabotage for no reason. You don’t need to be perfect to make progress.

The roadmap to long-term weight loss:

2) Nutrition - learn how to properly fuel your body
3) Lifestyle - apply simple nutrition and balance to create consistency

If you don’t know who you are, someone is going to come in and tell you who you are. Their version of you is going to benefit THEM not you. You betta get in tune with yourself.

[Natalie Butler | Behavioral Weight Loss Strategist @ChicagosNatalie]

We need to become more aware of the decisions we make and how they support our goals instead of being on autopilot and doing things out of habit. Being MINDFUL can make a BIG difference so stop and think “does this get me closer to my goal?”

[Natalie Butler | Behavioral Weight Loss Strategist @ChicagosNatalie]

For some ladies, the first step towards losing weight and keeping it off may just be learning how to forgive yourself. Beating yourself up isn’t doing you any good.

If getting on the scale everyday discourages you, stop getting on the scale! Look for non-scale victories like clothes fit better, more energy, easier to get up, easier to breathe, YOU feel better.
