Unstuffed

psychology-based weight loss program

Finally! A proven way to actually lose weight without dieting.

The only psychology-based weight loss program that helps you stop overeating so you never have to diet again.

Slashing calories and increasing cardio is the worst thing you can do when you want to lose weight.

If you’re a yo-yo dieter you already know that overeating kills weight loss. Unfortunately, most struggling dieters make the costly mistake of eliminating foods they love instead of learning how to stop overeating them. Without this skill, you’ll waste years battling weight gain and food obsession.

What if you could get into the body of your dreams without the restrictive food rules and mind-numbing exercise?

The freedom to eat chocolate guilt-free. The confidence to wear a swimsuit in public. The habits to get into the best shape of your life, for the rest of your life.

Introducing the Unstuffed Online Group Coaching program, the only legitimate weight loss program that focuses on your inner psychology so you never have to diet again.

If you’ve ever wondered what separates a “naturally thin” Mom with four kids from a Mom battling the baby weight from several years ago, the answer is right in front of you.

Look at their daily routine. What do you notice?

If you ask the average person on the street, they point out things that seem likely. They’ll say things like:

  • “I can’t believe she has such a flat stomach after having four kids; she must have a fast metabolism.”
  • “She eats whatever she wants and never gains weight.”
  • “Must be nice to have great genetics.”

But it’s something much different.

To chronic dieters, the “naturally thin” behave in mysterious ways. Through years of dieting, we’ve convinced ourselves that successful weight loss means reducing carbs, increasing vegetables, and having a regular exercise routine. But despite their best intentions, fewer than 5% of dieters will ever succeed.

So what do “naturally thin” people know that dieters don’t?

The secret is in their inner psychology and subtle daily habits.

Think about it.

Have you ever noticed how long-term dieters are never the leanest people you know? Seems backwards, right?

If you’re someone who’s been dieting for years, why are you having such a hard time losing weight?

Here’s a clue: “lean” people don’t diet

They do stuff like:

  • Wait until they’re hungry to eat.
  • Don’t feel pressured to clean their plate.
  • Stop before they’re full.
  • Don’t wait until Monday to “get back on track.”
  • Eat chocolate guilt-free.

So what causes dieters to obsess over their body and food when “naturally thin” people don’t feel and think this way? We’re not born like this, so how did this happen?

An uncomfortable truth – you began developing an unhealthy relationship with their food and body in childhood.

Picture yourself as a kid:

  • Get told by adults that you’re “bad” for not finishing a meal.
  • Be made to eat because that’s “good” behavior.
  • Get rewarded with “bad” food for behaving “good.”
  • Get denied “bad” food for behaving “bad.”
  • Be given “bad” foods, either to placate or celebrate.
  • Associate “bad” foods with feeling “good.”
  • Witness your parents tear down their body and complain about their weight.

The best thing I ever did for my mental health, personal development, and overall well-being is hire Leslie Hooper as my coach.

I thought I was signing up for a food freedom and strength training program, and what I received was a brand new life, in the best way possible.

Working with Leslie Hooper was the best investment I’ve ever made for myself.

I never understood how some people were able to pick up a cookie, have two bites, put it down, and walk away. Now I do. I’ve become one of those people, too. Thanks to her program, I have developed the mindset and habits of a “naturally thin”person. I always thought they had a fast metabolism or mine was just getting slower with age, but her program taught me those were self-limiting beliefs that were holding me back. When I learned how to silence my inner critic, I started seeing results.

What I love so much about her program is that it transforms you from the inside-out, so you know the results are permanent. This is the last time I’ll ever lose weight and that feels amazing. Leslie’s compassion combined with her no bullshit attitude was the tough love I needed. She’s honest. She’s direct. But she’s also incredibly encouraging and kind. She’s changed my life forever. My only regret is that I didn’t start sooner.

The gift you gave me — you taught me how to love myself more. You helped me kill the horrible roommate in my head that would treat me like dirt. You taught me to talk to talk to myself with the kindness I show my best friends. You taught me that in loving myself more — I would see change — both mentally and physically. That was a transformative gift I can’t thank you enough for.

Now, you’re an adult and…

  • Food is stressful, confusing, and upsetting.
  • You cringe when you look at your body in the mirror and the scale ruins your day.

THE TRUTH?

Food is neutral. It’s your mindset that makes it confusing.

No wonder we’re all walking around like brainwashed zombies following ridiculous dietary food rules. Most of us have never stopped dieting.

Do you know what it’s like to just…eat?

  • Without the judgment?
  • Without thinking about calories?
  • Without attaching your self-worth to your food choices?
  • Without negotiating more calories now for more cardio later?
  • Without being a slave to the scale?

Most of us don’t even know how to not diet. It’s our normal! Dieting means we’re improving; quitting is for losers. This way you get to believe dieting is beneficial.

But is it really?

It’s time to wake up! The diet industry is failing you.

It’s the diet industry’s dirty little secret that 95% of all dieters will regain their weight in under 6 months. And 83% will gain more weight than they lost.
0%
of all Dieters regain their weight in under 6 months
0%
will gain more weight than they lost

For decades the diet industry has been dumping billions of dollars into an advertising campaign that tells you how you should look and eat using their magic pills, detoxes, and belly wraps.

Major influencers found on social media, radio, and TV, perpetuate the illusion of rapid weight loss. Unfortunately, well-intentioned dieters waste their hard-earned money buying into the dream of a better life.

So what do the successful 5% know that dieters don’t?

Introducing Unstuffed

A step-by-step online weight loss program designed to help you heal your relationship with food and body by mastering your inner psychology. Kinda like diet rehab.

Together, we create your perfect roadmap so you become a weight loss success story — not just for an upcoming wedding or trip to the beach, but forever.

Like the 5%, you’ll learn how to stop overeating by reconnecting to your hunger and fullness cues. This means you’ll be able to lose weight anytime, anywhere.

And the best part? You don’t have to eliminate all of your favorite foods or avoid restaurants for fear of losing control. You’ll be able to eat fresh, homemade cookies without the guilt.

The benefit of changing your eating habits: you’re in control of what you eat, when you eat, and how much you eat. At all times. And you can lose weight whether you’re snowboarding in the Swiss Alps, on a first date, or celebrating a birthday with family and friends.

All of my clients come from different backgrounds, cultures, ages, and dieting histories. And they have all built successful habits with food. No more binge eating. No more scale stepping. No more skipping happy hour with friends.

So now let’s talk proof.

Here are the results from one of my clients — she has a long history of binge eating and just wanted to drop those last stubborn 10 pounds:

Think you can’t get lean without calorie counting? My clients abs would like a word with you.

After confronting her food fears, she developed habits that allow her to effortlessly maintain her physique for life. If she wants to grab a slice of pizza with colleagues after work — she can.

Like the dieting Mom still battling baby weight, why haven’t you been able to do this on your own?

Think you can’t get into amazing shape after having a baby? My client did. Down 43 pounds with at-home workouts.

The weight loss I always said I ‘could’ have done on my own, but only because I believe you can do anything you put your mind to. The truth is, I ‘could’ have done it on my own, but it would have taken a HELL of a lot longer, and it would have 100% been a more painful experience. I’m still progressing physically, but the mental work was done a few months back at the end of the program, and now I’m feeling and seeing the physical changes more consistently. I have an overwhelming gratitude for Leslie Hooper for the encouragement, support, and direction. The physical changes are great, but if you could see how I feel on the inside — that would be far more transformative than how I look. The lessons I’m continuing to learn about myself; the acceptance I feel in myself; how I actually feel about myself; how I actually like myself; it’s everything. Yeah, I ‘could’ have lost weight on my own, but not this. Not the self-acceptance part. Not without the level of support and encouragement I’ve been given in the Friends With Benefits program. I feel like a brand new person. I can’t believe how different I am in six short months. This program has literally been the best thing I have ever signed up for in my whole entire life, because it showed me how to change from the inside out. I no longer feel desperate to lose weight, because fat loss is inevitable with the life I’m living now…all without dieting.

Talk is cheap.

I’m more interested in showing you visual evidence that my program works. The truth is, anyone can be a coach on the internet. I’m not clueless to the notion that there are a crap ton of other people on social media who do what I do. I’ve invested thousands of dollars and hours researching how the 5% lose weight and keep it off forever.

I don’t care about helping people rapidly lose weight for a high school reunion or a milestone birthday. Pushing 30-day challenges and 8-minute abs isn’t good enough.

Sure, it might make me a few bucks, but all of this stuff is gimmicky bullshit that doesn’t work long-term. It’s a lie. It’s taking advantage of vulnerable people who are desperate for change by selling them false hopes and dreams.

In short, it’s why the 95% are failing.

I want to be able to contact you 5 years from now and hear you talking about the dreams you’re living, not the size you’re chasing.

If dieting worked, it would have worked by now.

The fact that your Mom, Aunt, and Grandma are still trying different fad diets 30 years later should be all the proof you need.

We’ve all been there – starting the same diet every Monday – for the hundredth time and suddenly, we’re eating because we’re stressed, bored, or feel deprived.

You could look for these psychological triggers on your own for years. You might discover something you haven’t observed before, but there’s nothing like having an expert walk you through it.

Now that is a true transformation.

When I started the program every meal was a struggle. I would eat things that I liked only to suffer through guilt and second guessing myself afterwards. The worst part is that I know what to do. I'm a Physician who helps patients lose weight. Now, I am a completely different person. I eat what I want and I am more present in my life. Losing weight is why I signed up, but the benefits go much deeper.

This is why professional athletes learn from world-class trainers. This is why master chefs learn through apprenticeships. Even the most gifted musical prodigies seek out famous music teachers. That’s what you’ll get in Unstuffed. A team of experts living the 5% life and are committed to helping you get there, too.

If you want to get great at something, you have to learn from the best.

Serena Williams didn’t waste time trying to “figure it all out” by herself. She put in the time, money, and effort to be successful. She didn’t just wing it.

Your mind and body are your most valuable assets and they are going to require a unique plan. If you want optimal results — real, life-changing results — then you’re going to have to invest in your success. 

If you’re serious about creating the life of your dreams without suffering through another diet — then why wouldn’t you want to learn from someone who has already helped thousands do it for two decades?

Don’t take my word for it. Here’s how I’ve changed the lives of others:

Testimonials

Taking the opportunity to work with Leslie is one of the best decisions I have made in my life. As someone who has been overweight my whole life, I didn’t think my problem could be fixed. I didn’t believe that I could ever maintain a healthy relationship with food, but it’s happening! What Leslie is doing is the real deal. I worked with her for 6 months and in that time I lost around 32 pounds, but what I gained was a lifetime of healthy eating habits that I can live happily with. I am never deprived of anything and I’m able to maintain my new eating habits effortlessly. Working with Leslie changed my life and I am forever grateful.

That “before” body is a place I’ll never return to. 20 weeks into Leslie Hooper’s Friends With Benefits online group coaching program and I’m now down 22 pounds and 18 inches — with more on the way! No calorie counting. No boring cardio. No forbidden foods. Just hard work, consistency, and changing my habits one-by-one. Her coaching has been life-changing. Every day I wake up excited to be in this body! I’ve not only lost stubborn fat and gained muscle, but I’ve learned to love myself through the process. Some days it doesn’t even feel like work. I still have a long way to go, but I am much further than where I started. Thank you, Leslie, for giving me the gift of happiness and confidence in my body.

Leslie Hooper’s program was the change I needed. Being a busy father of 7 children didn’t leave me with much free time, but with Leslie’s guidance and support, she always made sure I was progressing optimally week to week. In the program, I was able to drop over 30 pounds and lost 5 inches around my waist without food restrictions and long hours in the gym. This is just the beginning! Working with Leslie is one of the best investments I’ve ever made. My only regret is that I didn’t hire her sooner.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: “Is your new program Unstuffed different from Friends With Benefits?”

A: Similar, but not the same. Because we’ve made so many changes, upgrades, improvements, etc. to Friends With Benefits, we decided to dissolve that program and rebrand it as Unstuffed. All of the best features of Friends With Benefits will be available in Unstuffed and a lot more.

We take our former clients’ feedback seriously. We asked how we could improve the program and they offered many wonderful recommendations. We took their ideas on board and created the new program, Unstuffed: Psychology-based Weight Loss

Q: “I want to sign up for the Unstuffed group coaching program, but the only thing that’s holding me back is a two-week vacation I have planned during that time. I will be in Europe and fear I won’t have much internet access and it will interfere with the program. I don’t want to sign up and leave for two weeks, but I know this program is what I need to stop the cycle of dieting; I’ve been stuck in my entire life.”

A: You’re looking at the COST instead of the VALUE. This is a scarcity mindset. You’re focusing on the two weeks you may not have internet access (I have dozens of clients in Europe, by the way — all of them have no issues reaching me), but what about the other 24 weeks? What could happen in that time? How could your life vastly improve? What changes could you make? In the grand scheme of things, two weeks is nothing. You’re focusing on what could go wrong instead of focusing on what could go right. That kind of thinking will keep you stuck.

Q: “Most weight loss programs have a 3-month minimum commitment, why is yours 6-months?”

A: I’m so glad you asked. In a nutshell, 3 months simply isn’t enough time to reverse years of habits you’ve developed through dieting. This isn’t a program where we throw a meal plan at you and wish you the best of luck. It’s about rewiring your brain and helping you overcome your self-limiting beliefs and psychological barriers that keep you struggling. Unfortunately, these are deeply ingrained habits that are going to take time to reprogram in your mind. But don’t just take my word for it. Here’s what some of our clients are saying:

Mallory Mueller comment

Stephanie Curry comment

Q: “I absolutely see the benefit of your group coaching program and know that I would receive a ton of value by joining, but I have no income. I am considering dipping into my savings to join since I am desperate to stop binge eating. Is there any way you would accept a lower rate instead? I’m not trying to devalue your time or coaching, but I want to make this work.”

A: Unfortunately, no. This program is already discounted. I wish I could give the program away to everyone for free, but I have team members to pay and materials/software to purchase to ensure my client’s get the best results possible. As a young single Mom who struggled to make ends meet, I know what it’s like to be in a tough spot financially. That’s why I started the Unstuffed group coaching program, so I could provide a more affordable coaching service to those who need it. But, when does it end? If I charged $50 a month for the program, someone would ask me if they could pay $25.

At some point, you have to know your value and put boundaries in place to support that. Many clients have told me they actually think the program is underpriced for the amount of value you receive, but creating this program was never about making a big profit for me. $99/weekly for 26 weeks is relatively inexpensive when we talk about a “life-changing” experience that will pay for itself for decades to come. I’d be willing to bet you’ve already spent that much (and more) on weight loss products, supplements, unused gym memberships, and meal plans in the past. What would you be willing to pay to achieve your goal weight without ever having to suffer through another diet again?

Here’s what some of our members are saying about the financial investment:

That said, I do select one scholarship winner to participate in every Unstuffed group for those interested in applying. Announcements about how to apply will be detailed on my Instagram account, so keep your eyes open for that. A winner will be announced on January 7th or 8th. Current Unstuffed members who have already signed up for the October program are NOT eligible.

Keep in mind, despite not being able to afford the program, I still offer a ton of free content between my Instagram account, podcast, ebooks on emotional eating and free workouts, and my weekly newsletters. That should be enough to help you get started.

Q: “You said the program is personalized. How so? Does it involve a meal plan, guidance of body types, or is it more foundational knowledge that’s applicable to everyone?”

A: It’s not a meal plan. I don’t subscribe to those — they don’t address the core psychological reasons why you gained weight or feel out of control around food. In my program, we focus on the real underlying issues in your battle with weight loss. People already know what they should be doing, but their problem is in the inability to implement it consistently — self-sabotage is one of many psychological barriers we address throughout the program. In other words, the program is designed to help you reshape the way you think, feel, and interact with food through the power of habit and overcoming your self-limiting beliefs.

The program will be accepting new members from Tuesday, January 3rd to Friday, January 6th (unless it fills up before then). Once paid, you should receive an email receipt confirming your membership into the program with further instructions (if you didn’t receive the email, check your spam folder). The official start date will be on Monday, January 9th. However, on Saturday, January 7th, you will receive a Welcome Packet with instructions to help you get started.

Your first of 26 payments will be made when you sign up for the program to reserve your spot, so this means your final payment will be processed in week 25 of the 26 week program.

Q: “How is your program different from intuitive eating?”

A: Simple. Intuitive eating is not a weight loss program. It’s a set of anti-diet principles that are designed to help you break-free from the shackles of dieting, but it doesn’t provide you with a plan or structure on how to do this. Also, IE does not do a deep dive into your dieting history in the way that my program does. Without understanding what psychological behaviors caused you to gain the weight in the first place, it’s going to be impossible to unravel your ties to emotional and binge eating. When the emotional and binge eating stops, the weight falls off.

In my opinion, IE gets a lot of things right, but it’s more about education than it is about implementation. It lacks the practical steps required to show readers how to assess their varying degrees of hunger and fullness in a way that allows their body to settle in at a healthy weight. Reading principles isn’t enough. There needs to be a clear plan of action that details how you go from Point A to Point B with the guidance and support of a professional who will hold you accountable every step of the way.

For more of my thoughts on this, you can listen to this Fat Murder Podcast episode titled, “How We’re Different from Intuitive Eating” on any of your favorite podcast platforms.

One-on-one coaching is very similar to the group, but it involves weekly phone calls and moves more at a pace unique to you and your individual needs. It’s for people who want more of their Coach’s influence and accountability.

Group coaching is completed alongside my co-coaches (Steph Miramontes and Laura Kalirai), and obviously, other members of the group. Everyone receives personalized coaching through weekly small group coaching video calls over Zoom. On average, we anticipate 5-7 clients per call, so each of you will have plenty of time to be individually coached (calls will last anywhere from 45-90 minutes depending on attendance). However, one of the major benefits of group coaching is that you will have an opportunity to to learn from others being coached, too.

In-between weekly group coaching calls, all correspondence with your coach will be done via email. We also provide a private community for our members on Facebook. Participation is not required, but strongly encouraged. It’s an essential platform clients use to get as much value out of the program as possible. The additional support and encouragement from former clients, other coaches, and current members has proven to be a huge asset when going through this transformative process. Coaching content and challenges are presented in the community daily, so it’s a great place to receive additional accountability and education. If you’re not willing or able to participate in the Facebook group, I’d advise you to NOT sign up for the group coaching and consider 1:1 instead.

As far as the program itself, it’s customized to YOU. This is not a cookie-cutter diet. That’s not what we’re about and it simply doesn’t work. However, there are some core principles that my clients and team work on together to help you develop the eating habits of a “naturally-thin” person. These behaviors involve things like: emotional eating, snacking (or lack thereof), hunger, fullness, self-limiting beliefs, overcoming body image issues, negative self-talk, perfectionism, etc.

This isn’t just a weight loss program by any stretch of the imagination. My clients have weekly assignments that they receive where daily behavior tracking is involved in this process. This includes weekly reflective journaling check-ins, additional resources provided to you each week (to do on your own). I also provide a new workout program every 4 weeks in addition to your small group weekly coaching calls. If you can’t make it, no big deal. All of the coaching calls are recorded and will be accessible to you afterwards.

There’s more where that came from, but that’s the nuts and bolts of the program. However, all coaching is customized to you and your unique needs, every single day, every single step of the way. You can always email your coach with any questions.

Yes, I do my best to be present during as many group coaching calls as possible. You will also see me answering client coaching questions in the Facebook community on a daily basis.

Yes! Everything is customized to YOU through weekly group coaching calls. If you ever need additional guidance, we encourage you to reach out and ask for help. You will be assigned TWO coaches: Myself and another member of my coaching team (you can learn more about all of the coaches HERE).

You’ll be moving at the same pace as the group, but the program is tailored to you and your individual needs, week by week. This process simply wouldn’t work otherwise. You’re not the same person as all of our other clients, so you won’t be encountering the same challenges or obstacles. That has to be considered when it comes to providing you with the appropriate tools to be successful. It wouldn’t benefit you if we discussed a problem with nighttime snacking if your current struggle is with a food pushing aunt who makes comments about your weight, but also gives you a hard time when you don’t clean your plate.

Q: “My husband and I are actively engaged in trying to get pregnant. Can I still participate in the program if I’m pregnant?”

A: Of course! Unstuffed is not “just” about weight loss. This is a program designed to help you develop a healthier relationship with food — regardless of size. The byproduct of developing a healthier relationship with food (and yourself) is that you will also acquire the eating habits of a “naturally thin” person at your ideal weight. And what better habits to pass on to your future children than healthy eating habits they can maintain for the rest of their lives?

I’d highly recommend a program like this BEFORE you have children since that will be one less distraction competing for your attention. Many clients have been able to work the group while pregnant while still making meaningful progress in their goals — both psychologically and emotionally — which is what leads to physical change. There is no “perfect time” to get started. Where do you want to be six months from now?

Here’s what a couple of our pregnant clients are saying:

Q: “Hey Leslie, I’m super interested in the Unstuffed! Can you tell me about your money-back guarantee?”

A: Sure! It’s simple. You’ll have a full 30 days before you have to decide if it’s right for you. Then, if you don’t love it, email me and you’ll get every penny back.

Q: “I’m vegan. Can I still participate in your program?”

A: YES! One of our coaches on staff, Steph Miramontes, is a plant-based eater so she’s a great source of information in this area. I’ve also worked with dozens of vegan clients over the years and it’s a non-issue.

In this process, we’ll primarily be focusing on your inner psychology and eating behaviors before we spend too much time on nutritional education itself (most dieters already understand that whole foods are beneficial and need to make up the majority of your diet), so any dietary restrictions will be made by you. This program is not about choking down foods you don’t enjoy to lose weight; it’s about learning how to give yourself permission to eat what you love while honoring your body’s physical cues.

Q: “I’m fit, but I know I have an unhealthy relationship with food. I obsess over it constantly and want to break the cycle of binge eating. Can your program help me?”

A: Yes! Approximately 20% of my Unstuffed members are not individuals who have an interest in losing weight. Many just want to get off the dieting hamster wheel, but don’t know how.

The program is designed to help clients unravel their emotional ties to eating while developing the eating habits of a “naturally thin” person. Weight loss is the byproduct of minimizing instances of emotional and/or binge eating, but the habits you learn will be tailored to your body and goals.

Anyone who struggles with chronic thoughts regarding their food and body will benefit from the structure, guidance, and accountability in this program. Many are sick and tired of food scales, My Fitness Pal, and meal plans, but don’t know what else to do. My program is the solution to this.

The truth is, most people are either losing or gaining weight, but very few actually know how to lose (without dieting) and then maintain it for the rest of their lives. That’s what this program is going to show you.

Q: “I’m a busy single Mom with 3 kids who are all involved in extracurricular activities. Plus, I’m currently taking a night class on top of working out 4 times a week. Will I really have enough time to participate in this program?”

A: Isn’t this the very reason you NEED to be participating in this program? So you can get your life back and get off the merry-go-round of dieting and enjoy it to the fullest? How much time and money have you wasted on fat burners and gym memberships that never produced permanent results?

Stop wasting time reading about weight loss (it might feel like you’re being productive, but where are your results?) and put your effort into a program that’s proven to work.

It’s amazing how much free time opens up when you delete your calorie counting app and start eating what you want, not what a meal plan tells you to. (And when you have a clear plan of action you can execute anywhere, anytime.)

Q: “I’ve been listening to your podcast and following you on Instagram for a few months now. I’ve already seen some changes, but I’ve been struggling. How can your program help me?”

A: If you’re not IN LOVE with your life, then why stay trapped in it any longer than you have to? How much longer are you willing to spend waiting for your life to begin? Most of us spend our youth waiting for our lives to begin; we get old waiting for our lives to begin; we die waiting for our lives to begin.

If you’re just “putting this off,” then you’re squandering the only thing in life you can’t get back: time.

But don’t take my word for it, here’s what clients who tried it on their own are saying:

Q: “I’ve tried a million weight loss programs in the past. I’m really good at starting them, but I’ve never completed one. Why will this time be different?”


A: That’s what I’m here for. My entire program is designed to help you get to the root of why you perpetually self-sabotage yourself. The process is all about helping you to take action while ensuring you feel supported. You’ll get weekly email check-ins that are tailored to you, personalized coaching every week, daily Facebook content, and additional resources to keep you accountable.


Also, can we just take a moment to acknowledge that I used to be you. I also felt like a massive failure when it came to weight loss. I didn’t think I’d ever be able to stop feeling out of control around food. But that’s exactly why I created this program. Because I discovered what worked for me (and 2500+ women)…and now I want to share it with you.


You’re not broken. You just don’t have the right tools for your toolbox. We will help you develop these psychological skills so you never have to diet again.

The best way to find out is to try it. I’ve built in a no-brainer 30-day guarantee, which means you have access to the program before you decide it’s right for you.

With that said, there are some people who I do not want in my program:

  1. Anyone who isn’t willing to get uncomfortable while confronting their food fears, self-limiting beliefs, and doubts.
  2. Anyone who isn’t willing to stop calorie/macro counting and learn how to trust their physical cues.
  3. Anyone who has a history of eating disorders (bulimia nervosa and anorexia nervosa). Please seek help from a mental health professional who specializes in these issues.
  4. Anyone who thinks passively absorbing information is all they need to do to have success. If you ignore the simple action steps I give you and expect your body transformation to fall from the sky because you read an email or listened to a podcast, then I don’t want you in my program. This is a program for people willing to put in consistent work to achieve life-changing results. If you’re not ready to change, don’t join.
