I've tried all sorts of "diets" and "plans." No matter how hard I worked out, nothing was changing my relationship with food, which was very poor. I was missing accountability and the ability to zoom out and see the bigger picture. I would consistently beat myself up over perfectionism and then, as a result, abandon whatever plan I had or plan to "start on Monday." I basically went through every classic dieting trope. My relationship with food was so negative. I was clearly addicted to the feelings and comfort it gave me, but then I would have such a negative reaction to how it inevitably made me feel. That all changed when I found MyBodyTutor through the Daily Stoic. The goal is met! It took a while—nearly two years—but was worth every penny. I feel like I am on autopilot now. My relationship and how I think about food have totally changed. I started MyBodyTutor weighing 249 pounds, down from my peak of 255, and now I comfortably sit around 220 pounds and feel so happy with being here. The strategy MyBodyTutor takes is entirely different. There isn't a set "do not eat" list. Instead, they helped me unpack the "why" behind my actions, which is something I had been missing for so long. And ultimately, with the help of my coach, I was able to push through several stumbles. If you're on the fence, do it. Your health and your mental wellbeing are worth every cent. And more importantly, once you start, don't give up. Sometimes it sucks. Sometimes you hit severe resistance, but keep going. The only way out is through. And then one day, it all works, and you'll look back at the challenges, and they will feel 1000 years behind you.
