In this episode: Intro on me, Billie Blake! My weight-loss story  Mindset's that were holding me back 5 ways you can start changing your health and how you THINK about yourself so you can start losing weight TODAY My name is Billie Blake. I'm 28 years old and live in Rochester, NY with my fiancé Mike and our adorable kitty fur babies, Oscar and Yoda. I'm a life coach specializing in weight loss. 2 years ago I reached rock bottom in my life (like seriously crying every morning and evening and probably during lunch) and just felt STUCK and hopeless. I couldn't imagine my life continuing like it was for the next 60 years! So I started diving into mindset and eventually changed: -my relationship with my boyfriend (from almost breaking up to ENGAGED) -my happiness and satisfaction with my job  -my friendships and family relationships -my ability to create things in my life by making goals and achieving them  AND IT ALL STARTED WITH LOSING WEIGHT I am not joking. Once I realized that shifting my mindset could literally change my body and my health and how I felt about myself... I realized I was no longer stuck with my weight or anything else in my life. Since then I have lost a total of 25 lbs, I took my own growth deeper by becoming a certified life coach and weightloss coach, and now I help women stop feeling stuck with their weight and start achieving the health that they want.  I am so excited to tell you how I did it. *hint- not once did I have to count a calorie* How I started was : focusing on hydration and sleep making a 24 hr plan for myself each morning only starting one small habit at a time that I was 95% positive I could commit to eating when hungry and stopping when full (a LOT harder than it sounds) making a small mindset shift that immediately took me from stuck to possibility -Grab your spot in the Ready to Lose Coaching group by CLICKING HERE -Grab your EASY START GUIDE (& 7 day planner) by clicking here  -Follow me on Instagram @readytolosecoach for daily health and mindset tips.
