#48 - Yo-Yo No More - 15 Years, 30 Pounds, Breaking Free

Confident Bombshells

How many times have you lost and gained the same 20 to 30 pounds throughout your life, and how much did that cost you? The rollercoaster of losing and gaining weight not only impacts our relationship with food but also takes a toll on our mental and emotional well-being. This constant cycle erodes a positive mindset, creating frustration and defeat. Moreover, the stress and self-criticism that accompany yo-yo dieting can strain relationships with family, friends, and colleagues, impacting social interactions and support systems. Breaking free from this pattern is essential for reclaiming a stable, healthy lifestyle and nurturing meaningful and harmonious connections with those around us.
In this episode, Katie shares her transformative fitness journey, from her struggles and aspirations to the changes in her life. Katie is no stranger to the frustrating cycle of gaining and losing the same 20 to 30 pounds, a struggle that began during her college years at 23 and persisted until she was 39. Faced with the challenges of weight fluctuation and its accompanying emotional toll, Katie committed herself to finding sustainable solutions. Now, having achieved her health and fitness goals, she dedicates her time to helping other women navigate their paths to health and fitness.
