My Philosophy as a Transformation Guide
I lost 140 pounds eating what I wanted — no diets, no gyms, no starving myself. Just small, smart choices anyone can make — even if you’ve failed at weight loss a hundred times before. That journey became the foundation for my philosophy: STOP DIETING. START CHOOSING.
For nearly 60 years, I lived on the weight-loss hamster wheel — losing weight, gaining it back, and hating myself through every diet. By 59, I was 411 pounds, on eight medications, and could barely walk 100 feet without gasping for air. Every doctor said: “Lose the weight or you won’t make it.” The thought of another diet was soul-crushing. Diets had beaten me down for decades.
Then I made a different choice — literally. I stopped dieting and started choosing. Because what changes your body isn’t willpower or perfection — it’s choice. The small, smart choices you make every day are what create big, permanent change. That’s the core of my Stop Dieting. Start Choosing. philosophy.
The Stop Dieting. Start Choosing. Philosophy
As a Transformation Guide, I don’t hand you a plan to follow — I teach you how to take back control. No foods off-limits. No guilt. No obsession. Just real-world tools for real-world people who want to finally feel free around food again.
- Eat What You Love (While Losing Weight): Enjoy pizza, cocktails, and dessert without losing control or progress. No “cheat days.” No shame spirals.
- No Diets, No Gimmicks: I’ll show you how to handle travel, stress, and busy weeks without blowing it — because life doesn’t pause for weight loss.
- Sustainable Results: Crash diets fail. Smart choices don’t. You’ll build habits that last so you never “start over Monday” again.
- Real Talk, Real Accountability: I’m blunt, honest, and unapologetically real — because you don’t need another coach telling you what to eat; you need a guide who shows you how to choose.
This isn’t just about losing weight. It’s about rewiring how you see food, choices, and yourself. It’s about finally feeling confident in any room, taking back your health, and living life on your terms — while still loving the foods you love.
Stop Dieting. Start Choosing. That’s the difference between temporary change and total transformation.
