It's all about you, and we really look at what are the things that you've been struggling with in your weight loss journey so far?

What have you tried so far? What are the things that've been holding you back? What are the specific things that you struggle with? And then we talk about where you'd like to be. So we. Talk about the reasons why you want to do this work, why you want to lose the weight for good, why you wanna finally be free from all of that food chatter in your brain and constantly worrying about your weight and your food, and you just wanna be present in your life.

So whatever the reasons are for you that you want to lose this weight and keep it off for good, we really tune into. , then I teach you about how coaching can specifically help you and we. learn how to apply the coaching tools that I teach to you. So then you get to decide if that's something that would suit you or not.

So it's not a call where you are obliged to buy or anything like that. You want to come on this call if you are really considering the group coaching program, but you have any questions or any doubts that you wanted to talk through with me to maybe see what kind of, Coach I am by coming on the call seeing if you resonate with the way I coach, the way I teach, just my, personality.

You probably have an idea of that from the podcast, but you may want to just come on a call and just have a conversation with me. So this is a very informal conversation where we really dive deep into you. It's all about you. And if you are considering during the group coaching program and you would like to take me up on this offer of having a free consult, then make sure you go to www.amruticoaching.com/group to sign up for that free consult. I'm doing free consults all the way up until Friday, the 21st of October, because the last date to sign up for the group coaching program that starts in November, starts off with the amazing live event and then. As we go into the group coaching program, what do you get?

You get six months of live group coaching with me and the other members of the group, and we meet twice a week on Tuesdays, 12 to 1:00 PM, bst, and Thursdays, four to 5:00 PM bst, so that all the ladies from all across the world are welcome to attend. I encourage you to attend at least one of the calls per week, but if you want to attend to, you're more than welcome to.

You have recordings of all of the calls, so if you're not able to attend both calls, it's completely fine. You just allocate that time in your calendar and make sure you go and watch the replays, and that really helps. You also get unlimited written coaching in the private Facebook group. This is literally my favorite time in the morning when I wake up to lots of, coaching requests from my group, like literally the group that we have.

So, Is so engaged and so willing to get coached to help develop their brains. seek support in spotting. What are those thoughts that are holding them back from achieving that goal? And when they are able to be vulnerable and, and ask for coaching, then they are able to implement it much quicker because they've done the hard bit of asking for the help.

A lot of people think that it's a sign of weakness to ask for help, but actually asking for help is one of the hardest things that you can do. So if you. Ask for help when you know that you need help with something is actually a sign of strength rather than weakness. So if you are thinking, Do you know what, there's something that really resonates with me on this, then you asking for help is not a sign of you being weak.

In fact, it's the opposite. It's the, it's a sign of you being super strong and super like clear on what you want to achieve and going out and achieve. So, so powerful. So you get the unlimited written coaching. You also get the Amazing Mind and Body Food Planner. So if you haven't seen this, make sure you go to the website www.amroutecoaching.com/group and there's a section on it so you can have a look at it and you can like get to know whether that's something that you would like.

It will help transform your planning, needs. So it helps incorporate all the mind management with the food. Planning, and that's the thing that most of my clients struggle with. So they're either good at food planning or they're good at mind management. And to incorporate the two is normally the hardest bit.

So that's why the Mind and Body Food Planner is designed specifically for group coaching clients to help them incorporate those two pieces, which are fundamental in losing weight. And then you also get. A course full of five modules and, videos and worksheets and things for you to dive deeper into any of the topics that we coach on.

So we, we have so many videos in there and this round I'm also introducing some. Urge meditations and some feeling your feelings, meditations and some self-love meditations so that every time you wanted to go and feel your emotion and you wanted some support with that, you could listen to that meditation with me recording it so you've got your coach on hand with you 24 hours a day.

It's so powerful. Oh my goodness. I wish I had a program like this when I was losing the weight, which is why I created this program for you in this way with this setup, so that you don't have to suffer with this burden on you for so much longer. You've been worrying about your weight and your food for so long, and now is the time to nip that in the bud and literally deal with it for.

So come and learn these tools. You are so very welcome in the group coaching program, and the last day to sign up is Friday, the 21st of October, and you are so very welcome. So make sure you come and join if that's something that you resonate with. Okay, so let's dive into this week's topic, and I think it's gonna be one that you will really find useful and it's about the perfect diet.

So this is the biggest issue that I see people struggling with. They're always looking for what is the perfect diet? What do I need to eat? What exercise do I need to do? How many steps do I need to do? What are my calories, my points, my macros? How much food do I need to weigh? All of that. Not going to help.

When you are seeking that perfect plan, that plan that you think will be the solution to your weight loss struggles because there is no such thing. There is no such thing as a perfect diet. Now you can understand the science and as you know from listening to this podcast, you know that I. Really advise the science and I, and I teach you the science and you know that I advise no sugar, no flour for up to about two months.

And that is so that you can start listening to your body's hunger hormones. You can start paying attention to the insulin, the grehlin, the leptin, and you can start stabilizing those hunger hormones so that your body is able to tell you when it is actually hungry and when it is actually eaten to. , you know that I suggest intermittent fasting as it helps you to become a fat burner from being a sugar burner.

It helps you metabolize the fat in your body as fuel, as opposed to relying on you constantly eating to generate the fuel. But the truth of the matter is, even though I recommend these things, everyone in my program has a. Food plan that they stick to. And the reason for that is because there is no perfect diet that suits everyone.

Everyone is different. . One of the biggest issues I see with people joining the program is they think that they have to follow it to the tea. They have to do no sugar, no flour. They have to plan every single thing that they eat. They have to feel all of their emotions. They have to feel all of their urges.

They have to only eat to bless on the hunker scale. Now listen, if you follow these things, of course you will get success, but I just wanted to offer to you perfection is not needed in. When you look at it as if, listen, I'm either winning or I'm learning, and when I failed at something, like I have given into an urge and eaten some food off my plan.

or I was feeling stressed and then I ate some food that was in the fridge that was leftovers, or I'm feeling overwhelmed, so I have the kids leftovers, whatever it may be. When you look at it as an opportunity to learn and get you closer to your goal, that will change everything. This is why I say perfection is not needed on this journey at all, and also there is no perfect.

The best plan is the plan that you are going to stick to and that helps you achieve your goal. Now, the most important bit of that is the bit that you are going to stick to, so it needs to be doable. I can tell you exactly what to do. I can tell you exactly what I eat and. How I move my body, how much meditation I do, how much thought work I do.

But this will not work for you because it's only addressing the action line of the model. Now, as you know, I teach the self coaching model and it's your thoughts that make you feel a certain way, which make you take certain actions which create real results. So if we are only focusing on the actions, then we are not dealing with the thoughts and the feelings that are preceding those actions.

right? So what we want to do is we want to try and identify what are those thoughts and feelings for you. Because no matter what I tell you to eat, if you've not addressed those thoughts and feelings, it's never gonna be sustainable for you. And it won't even matter what you eat then, because those thoughts are the things that create your results, right?

So the best diet is the diet that you make perfect for. . This takes being willing to try something. This takes giving into an urge sometimes, and instead of thinking you've done something wrong, thinking about it as if this is happening for me, this is happening so that I can learn the lesson from it.

Then asking yourself, What is this here to teach me in my program? I generally, like so many people ask me, What is your diet like? How do you eat? I'm just gonna tell you because so many of you ask me. I eat no sugar, no flour most of the time, but I have a dark chocolate on my plan daily, and quite a lot of it because I love it and I choose to put it on my plan daily.

I do intermittent fasting, so I have a mixture of two meals a day, sometimes one meals a day, so. I prefer having one meals a day on my working days because it feels just, I, I, my concentration is there more and I am able to concentrate and just feels like a much more loving thing for me to do. And on weekends I often have two meals, but I'm also very flexible.

If I'm going out to eat or if I, am meeting up with people, I'll just change my plan. It's not an issue for me at all, and I very much pay attention to my body's hunger signal. If I am not hungry and I planned for two meals, then I'll just allow my body to not have anymore. If I planned one meal and actually I was hungry, then I will allow my body to have the meal.

It's not so strict that I like stick to it like that. I am like suffering my way through it. Not at all. This is about listening to your body. This is about understanding it. This is about partnering your brain with your body. This is about being there with yourself and trusting your body signal.

We're so trained to trust our brains. We are an intellectual society at school. We get taught that you've gotta, succeed at everything. You've gotta like really think about things. But actually so many of us are such successful women. We are so good at what we do. We're so successful in other areas of our life, and this is the area where we struggle and you know, Weight loss is half about managing your brain, but half about learning how to pay attention to your body's natural signals.

Tuning into your emotions in your body, feeling your urges in your body, and not needing these external things like food, alcohol, overshopping, over cleaning people pleasing to make us feel better. And when we can do that, when we can really learn how to partner our brain with our body, that is where the magic happens.

So many of my clients think, Wait, what? That sounds really woo and really like weird. And I'm a very intellectual person. I like to know the science behind it. Trust me, I was there too. I'm a doctor. I focus mainly on the science and only because I've studied the science of this, there is so much science to back up what I'm talking.

and then I've got all the experience of coaching myself through it and coaching all of my clients through it as well. And the results that you get when you partner your brain with your body are out of this world. And this is what we do in the group coaching program. So it's definitely something to look up if that is what you are thinking about.

So that's how I eat. There's so many other types of plans in my program. One of my clients eats two to four meals a day, depending on what her routine is like. She eats mainly no sugar, no flour. Regularly plans, enjoy eats. Another of my clients, she eats two meals a day, but eats both sugar and flour.

Another one, doesn't do intermittent fasting, doesn't do no sugar, no flour, but is very good at paying attention to her. hunger signals. And only eats too enough. , one of my clients, likes to, calculate her macros because she trains a lot in the gym and she likes to make sure she's getting enough protein and things like that, so she likes to weigh that up.

So what she's doing in the program is learning the tools of paying attention to hunger signals, making sure she is okay with feeling urges, feeling her emotions, and she doesn't take every single part of the program and, and use it against herself. She uses it to adjust so that it fits into her lifestyle.

Cause the whole point of the group coaching program is to find a plan that works for you, because only then you're gonna stick to it, right. Find a plan that you're gonna start off with. You don't need to start off with a perfect plan because when you learn the tool of evaluation and like doing it without judgment and not making it mean anything about you, that's when it's not a big deal.

You start with something, you try it, and then you evaluate it. You think, Okay, what went well, What didn't go well, and what we're gonna do differently next week. You analyze those overeating moments and you start thinking about what were the thoughts and feelings that led to my over. , what was the situation I was in?

What kind of things were going on for me? And then you start to get to know yourself better, and you start to plan for yourself. And you treat yourself with so much love and respect because you are setting yourself up for success when you know that that situation is coming like a weekend or a holiday, or eating out at a restaurant.

And these are the times where you normally overeat. When you have set yourself up for success. It's the most loving thing that you can do for yourself. Don't get me wrong, it can be super uncomfortable because feeling urges when you've never felt an urge. Yeah. It doesn't feel great feeling your emotions when you've always buffered with food and used food to numb them out.

Yeah. It doesn't feel good, but what is the alternative for you? The alternative is you not feeling good in the way you are right now. You feeling stuck in this? nemesis in your mind of like, you're not doing it right, you're doing something wrong, and you are constantly like battling with your own brain.

So if there's discomfort either way, which one do you choose? Right? You get to decide. Now in the program, the way it works is I give you a sample food. And on there it's broken up into food groups. And in the live event I teach you all about the science of weight loss. So I teach you about the hunger hormones.

I teach you about how different foods affect your insulin levels, your leptin, your grehlin, which are all your hunger hormones. I teach you about the science of weight loss. , I teach you about how to start making a doable plan. How to start becoming aware of your mind. I start teaching you about evaluation and we go through some of the worksheets are in the mind and body food planner, and we set a foundation where by the end of the live event, you have decided what your doable plan is.

You have decided how you are going to plan your food. what kind of foods you're gonna be eating. And then every week in the group coaching program, that's where you can get feedback on your plans and you can get me you know, making suggestions on your plans as well. But what's important is if you're not joining the group, what I want you to start doing is, Starting to ask yourself and analyzing your food plans, yourself, coming up with solutions and, solving the obstacles that you've been facing first, and then seek coaching because when you are solving for your own obstacles first, then your brain gets better at solving for those obstacles.

You can also then seek coaching after that because that will help solidify what your brain already knows and offer you a different perspective that you may not have considered. Because me being your coach, I can see those things that you may not be able to see because you are in it in your brain.

And you may think that your thoughts are real right now, and it may feel very real. But being that, external person, , that external coach, I'm able to show you what your brain is doing from a place of love, but you then get to decide whether you wanna keep that thought or not really, Right? So the point of this podcast was to show you that there is no best diet.

There is no best. exercise regime. There is no best meditation practice. There is no best, macros or weighing food or calories or anything like that. There is just a plan that you decide to make right for you, and that starts off with you trusting your inner wisdom and your inner knowing.

Most of us know generally what, what works for. . And even if we don't have a very clear idea, what I would suggest for you to do is start off with something. Make a plan for a week. See how it goes, See what you really enjoyed. See where you were struggling with your hunger or with your food plan.

See where you were going off protocol, and then the next week you are then adjusting it according to that, so that it makes it more doable for you. Because a plan that you don't stick to is just a fancy piece of paper. , you wanna make your plan doable, so you're actually gonna follow it because that builds up that relationship with yourself, that you do what you say you're gonna do.

You have your own back, you're looking out for yourself, and that is so much more important than the food that you eat. Building up that relationship with yourself, that you have your own back, and that you do what you say you're gonna do. . So if you are ready to start this work, this is the time for you.

The group coaching program is open for enrollment and we welcome you with open arms. This is the place where you will not be judged for any of the thoughts where we help just debunk some of those thoughts that you have been thinking or your life about your food, about your weight, about your body, about yourself, and we help heal generations of food.

If this sounds like something that you would love to do, then make sure you go and visit the website www.amruticoaching.com/group, and you can book a free consult all the way up until Friday, the 21st of October, and I look forward to seeing you inside. All right, take care. Bye.
