Frequently Asked Questions

Your Certified Health Coach is an experienced dietitian. She has also maintained a substantial weight loss for many years. The secret to maintaining long term success is not found in a diet or restrictive food plan. Through her years as a dietitian, studying human behavior, and as a highly effective Certified Health Coach, she embraces these truths in her practice:

• Knowledge DOES NOT equal habit change

• Nobody wants to be told what to eat

• Diets DO NOT WORK long term

• 97% of people who lose weight dieting, regain it within 6 months

• You can’t “out-exercise” poor eating habits

• It isn’t about just losing the weight… it’s about creating a life that you don’t have to escape from.

• Habits are driven by PLEASURE. So, the journey to better health must be pleasurable & fun, or it won’t stick!

Weird, huh?

Our magic happens through pleasurable, easy, evidence- based habit change. We engage our clients in the joy of becoming the highest version of themselves. We know that our HABITS (not supplements) are the #1 determiners of the quality of our life.

Yes! Lake City Coaching can help you. I’ve been there. Skipping meals, eliminating entire food groups, working out until I drop, eating salad while others are having a “real” meal. Experiencing low energy most of the time and just generally feeling “tired of being tired!”

Here’s the good news:

It’s likely not your fault.

There are many factors that contribute to weight gain (especially stubborn belly fat) that most people are unaware of. Many of these contributing factors actually happen during the “white knuckling” periods of self- deprivation. When we feel as if we have been attempting to “push string uphill”….. when we have tried our best, and worked so hard and it just doesn’t happen for us. Then, we can’t stand it anymore, fall off the wagon, gain a few more pounds and the toxic cycle begins all over again.

If that scenario sounds familiar to you, we want to welcome you, and encourage you to stop doing the same old thing, and expecting different results. The truth is, if “different” results were going to happen, they would have happened a long time ago, right?

We use fresh, enjoyable techniques that get results like nothing else! With fun, easy, evidence- based interventions and proven clinical strategies we engage our clients in life-long habit change. And, we make it fun!
