If we understand motivations, behaviors, and routines, we can completely overturn our daily experience.

The key difference between success and failure is enjoyment. The fundamental flaw with the approach of both the dieting and medical industries is the focus on willpower/restriction, the mantra “no pain, no gain.”

Diets promise short-term solutions: “try our 10-day quick-fix, magic elixir, ultra-secret, fat-scorching solution!” Well, that’s great, but what happens after 10 days?

‘Going on a diet’ is exactly why going on a diet fails.

Push the boundaries of your fear. When you do, all of a sudden you find yourself doing things you only once imagined or dreamed about or wished you could do.

I suggested they not even try to change their diet, at least at first – I just wanted them to commit to taking a photo of their food and sending it to me, their coach.

To change your lifestyle is a tall order.
