Workshop 1 - Physical Strategies for Successful Weight Loss
Have you ever wondered why your weight doesn't go down as quickly as you'd like (or at all) even though you spend a lot of energy trying to lose weight?I meet a lot of people who put extortionate amounts of energy into things that don't actually help them to lose weight.
In this workshop I'll show you the simple physical things you need to do to order to lose weight effectively and sustainably, backed by scientific research.
I'll take you through a series of simple diagnostic tests that will show you exactly what you may be doing to inadvertently block your weight loss progress, and I'll show you strategies for getting around your particular roadblocks.
Just as accurate diagnosis of a medical problem makes it quicker and easier to find the most effective treatment, accurate diagnosis of what's blocking your weight loss will enable you to quickly and simply apply the most appropriate and effective solution for you.
You'll leave the workshop with 2-3 specific things to tweak in your life to get your weight moving downwards.
Instead of feeling like you're forever trying to lose weight but never getting anywhere, your efforts can be rewarded with efficient and sustainable weight loss.
This workshop is for you if:
- You've read my book The Don't Go Hungry Diet or seen my introductory workshop on The Science of Weight Loss (live or on DVD).
- You're ready to put these principles into action in your life so you can lose weight without going hungry.
Testimonial
Yvonne, who lost 5.5 kilos in 10 weeks using the strategies from this workshop wrote:
"I thought I should also thank you for some of the little ways you have improved my quality of life:
- Never again having to order a "skinny" latte - YUK.
- Losing weight without everyone noticing me counting my food - I always found it somehow humiliating.
- Not having to trade things off in my head - like okay I'll have this beer but then I have to go for a big walk tomorrow and I can't have wine with dinner, not being someone for whom self denial naturally flows I hated this!
- Best of all, not feeling - "Great I'm now 70 kilos"! And then a moment later - panic, "how am I going to stop creeping up!", and realizing that I have absolutely no idea!
Another BIG plus is to be able to model really healthy eating behavior for my kids. For them to see a mum in control of her weight, neither starving herself nor thinking constantly about food and able to enjoy food with the family.
Thanks again Amanda!"
Having helped many people such as Yvonne to lose weight and feel in control of their weight, I look forward to meeting you at my workshop on Physical Strategies for Successful Weight Loss.

"Dear Amanda, Just wanted to say Hi before Christmas and let you know how I’ve been getting on. I am pleased to say that since I was at your workshop in May and started e-mail coaching with you I have lost 5 kilos. I know it may not seem like a huge amount in 6 months but don’t forget I hadn’t been able to lose 2 kilos and keep it off in about 7 years of dieting. The six months has also been quite a learning journey for me. I did take quite some time to really change old habits and adjust to a new way of eating and thinking. After some rigorous diary keeping I soon came to realize that I was still managing to squeeze into my diet quite a few foods that were not “real” foods. Crackers here and a couple of biscuits there when I wasn’t hungry. As I used the diary to really look at what I was eating, I also noticed that over the course of a week I might of only had 5-6 pieces of fruit, or gone a few days where my main meal had only a side serve of veggies/salad. And I noticed toast and crackers popping up everywhere in my diary. Now I feel I have a working understanding of “real” foods in my diet. I notice days when I don’t eat 2-3 pieces of fruit and a large salad/veggies. When I am ready to eat a snack I plan to have some lovely fresh fruit or yogurt, or a little cheese with celery/carrot. I’m not keeping the diary any longer in terms of satiety, but I still write down what I eat during the day and check every few days to ensure bad habits are not coming back. So thanks for the journey this year. I feel I am well on my way and will let you know when I lose the next 5 kilos! Hope you and the family have a great Christmas."
