#145 - From Extreme Restriction & Yo-Yo Dieting To Building Her Best Body Ever At 43; Nat's Post Weight Loss Journey Of Finding Lifting & Unlocking Her Best Self

In this episode, I'm joined by our beautiful unicorn Nat, a 43-year-old mum of one who spent over a decade losing and gaining the same weight, sure the whole time that she just wasn't a disciplined person.But she could always lose the weight. That was never the hard part.The hard part was that every tool she reached for: the 12-week programs, the keto, the restriction, was built to end, so she'd always end up right back where she started.We talk about what changed when she stopped white-knuckling it: quieting the food noise that had run her brain for two decades, picking up a barbell for the first time in her forties and getting stronger than she was at 20, learning to add food back in instead of taking it away, and slowly building the trust that this time, she's actually here to stay.And somewhere in there, the story she'd carried for almost 20 years - 'I'm just not disciplined' - finally stopped being true.Give it a listen, and let me know which part hit home for you.Xoxo,MaurineLove this episode?Share it your Instagram story!  Want to connect?Follow me on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/fitness__unicorn/Learn about Unicorn Nation:https://www.unicorn-nation.com/
