About this episode
Weight Watchers has long been a household name. For decades, the program has promised to help individuals shed those extra pounds through its unique points system and support network. However, recent years have seen a decline in the popularity and effectiveness of Weight Watchers. With its flawed points system, it is becoming restrictive for many. And with its heavy reliance on calorie counting, it has led many to struggle to sustain long-term weight loss. In this episode, we will delve into the reasons behind Weight Watchers' failure and explore a more holistic approach that focuses on the real issues deep down and addresses the overall health and well-being rather than just numbers on a scale. "If you've just been listening to your doctors and the social media into the latest plans and fads and you're just trying to follow a blueprint, it's never going to work long-term. You are going to continue dieting for the rest of your life. And if that's okay with you, that's fine. But if you're in a space where you're like, I don't wanna do this anymore and I don't wanna die for the rest of my life and I wanna be able to just have freedom in this area, then we got to undo it. You got to do the foundational work and then you can support yourself and you'll naturally start making empowered choices." - Leslie Thornton What you will learn from this episode: 01:23 - How you can join the Hypnosis for Permanent Weight Loss Community 04:19 - Sharing the Weight Watcher Founder's story of her food and weight struggles 11:57 - Weight Watchers and how many weight loss programs can't sustainably put off the weight 15:57 - The underlying reason for weight issues to persist and how you can get over it [and what your thought problem makes you believe] 18:58 - Looking at the vicious cycle of not addressing the real issue 22:35 - What do you want to be remembered for when you die? 25:44 - Getting deep into your subconscious and rewiring old patterns [gaining that power back over food and negative thoughts] 27:36 - The length Leslie had gone to be where she is today [ and how freeing that can truly be] 32:12 - Successful case studies of those joining the program Valuable Resources: Free Monthly Hypnosis for Weight Loss Session Join the 8-week Fastrack to Food Freedom Program -Guaranteed mental and emotional freedom from food Connect With Leslie: Book A Clarity Call Free 2 Hour Masterclass—How I Lost Weight Permanently and Stopped Stress Eating without Dieting or Strenuous Exercise Website Facebook LinkedIn Email: Leslie@hpwl.co If you enjoy the podcast, Would you please consider leaving a quick review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes in under 60 seconds?
