Ever feel like you’ve tried everything to lose weight—Weight Watchers, willpower, the “just don’t buy snacks” approach, and still end up bingeing on pretzels at 10 p.m. wondering what’s wrong with you? So did Rebecca.
In today’s episode, I sit down with Rebecca, a busy single mom of two from LA and a total success story from Mindful Weight Loss Academy (although let’s be real…once a client, always a client ).
We’re talking about the moment she hit diet rock bottom, the inner tug-of-war between “I can’t spend money on myself” and “I’m so over this struggle,” and how she finally said YES to herself...after almost walking away.
(Spoiler: she said NO after our first call—and then came back a month later ready to change her life.)
Rebecca shares her raw and honest journey: from years of yo-yo dieting and late-night binges, to finally finding food freedom through mindfulness and intention. We’re talking about the mindset shift that made food stop controlling her, how she went from snack-obsessed to truly satisfied, and the life-changing non-scale victories she’s celebrated—like having energy for her kids, finally loving her body, and ditching diet culture for good.
Real talk: if you’re tired of feeling out of control around food, obsessed with your weight, or convinced you’re just “bad” at healthy eating, you need this episode in your life. Rebecca proves there’s a better way—and it has nothing to do with points, perfection, or “starting over.”
Whether you’re on the fence about joining MWLA or you’re just sick of feeling like you’re “failing” at food, Rebecca’s story will leave you inspired, empowered, and maybe even a little emotional. (I definitely was.)
xoxo,
Jackie
