*Managing stress is HUGE in the success of adopting this lifestyle.

Why?

When stressed, anxious, feeling hopeless, angry, disappointed, frustrated, guilty, ashamed, apathetic, fearing the future, facing financial insecurities, the nervous system enters SURVIVAL MODE.

That means Fight, Flight or Freeze. No energy for other constructive activities.

In that state, sleep and digestion are poor, and CORTISOL IS HIGH.

Therefore, no matter how hard you try or how well you stick to a nutritious diet, YOU CANNOT LOSE WEIGHT.

It happens all the time; I see it with some of my clients. I see it in my family. I had this problem too.

It makes sense. When in survival mode, the body’s priority is to escape danger and survive for as long as possible. Getting rid of the fat stores, which are the fuel supply in case of emergency, is the most stupid thing to do. And your body is never stupid.

Plus, in survival mode, you cannot make mindset shifts, learn new paradigms, release old limiting beliefs and patterns, meditate to discover subconscious secondary gains of your unwanted current situation. You cannot create; your body cannot reach homeostasis.

Therefore, I’m going to share with you how to switch from anger-fear-stress-survival mode to calm-relaxed-excited-grateful-creative mode.

How this session works:

FIRST: 

📅 We schedule our video call by email. (Calendly). 

And then…

SECOND:

🔍 In-Depth Analysis

Prior to our video call session, three VERY IMPORTANT tasks must be completed, and I’ll guide you through:

1. I will conduct a thorough analysis of your diet history, food choices, drink preferences, sleep patterns, overall lifestyle, and mindset. For that, I’ll send you a form with questions and prompts. You will take the time to think and answer them thoroughly. Your success depends on that.

2. For a week or so before our meeting, you will track your calories and nutrition using a very useful tool. You must measure all the food you eat every day and input it into the calculator I will share with you.

Please measure your normal, current intake; don’t try to improve your eating habits this week. If you normally drink 1 bottle of wine a week or 10 energy drinks, or if you eat pizza, cakes, and fried meals on a daily basis, hiding that won’t do you any good.

Also, do not restrict portions or calories to make your diet look better. You must be very honest with yourself (and with me). Real data, the actual number of your daily calorie intake, is not only important but the most important data you can work with in your food and nutrition journey.

This is crucial. You can’t know where you are going if you are not aware of where you are NOW. Where you TRULY are.

3. Also, in the time before our session, you’ll go to your healthcare practitioner to get your blood checked. Blood and urine tests on your current diet and lifestyle will serve as a starting point, measured parameters, and objective data.

No worries, I will list what to check when going for lab tests. So, yes, vitamin B12 too. In the dot’s world, people believe plant based vegan diets make you deficient in B12. With your blood and urine test BEFORE going plant-based, you’ll see how low your B12 levels are on this omnivore diet you currently have. B12 is not a vegan issue, but a modern world issue. B12 is produced by bacteria, not by animals. Everybody should take B12 supplements, not only vegans!

When you start your Whole Food High Carb High Fruit Low Fat Plant-Based Vegan Diet, you should periodically repeat those medical lab tests every other month or every three months.

These lab tests serve us, but especially you, as comparative data.

Your first physical changes, such as increased energy, better sleep, digestion, elimination, increased focus, vitality, and weight loss—the ones you can testify to—will prove you are on the right track. They will motivate you to keep going. Comparative blood tests, however, are the next level of proof you need that this diet IS the right diet for you and the healthiest you’ve been on.

You don’t have to have your results for our meeting; that is for the next months and for your future self because that data is the hallmark of your biggest life shift.

THIRD: 

✍️ You’ll send me all your answers and share your food diary with me at least 2 days before our meeting, to give me time to go through all that valuable data and get to know you and your story better.

By scrutinizing these aspects, I (and after our video call, you too) will:

– Gain valuable insights into your current habits and food beliefs

– Know the daily average of your calorie intake for sure

– Identify any cognitive blocks you might have

– Identify your emotional blockages (everybody has those)

– Identify potential secondary gains that have hindered your progress towards a whole food plant-based diet and thus towards health and weight loss

– Identify if you are or not in a stressed emotional state

And FOURTH:

∑ The actual video call.

⚠️ IMPORTANT ⚠️

What you don’t get in my programs:

**Personalized Diet Plan:** This diet is so simple once you understand the fundamentals that there is no need for a Diet Plan or Meal Plan. I never used one; it always seemed very complicated to me, so I don’t believe in it, and I don’t support it.

**Meal recipes:** Simple over complex meals. I promote simplicity in eating and lifestyle, mostly because that works wonders and digests the best. I will give you the structure, the overall strategies to follow to make sure a meal has ENOUGH calories, enough CARBOHYDRATES. I’ll give you suggestions, ideas for meals, but not complex recipes.

**Refunds:** 

I do NOT offer refunds.

I do NOT believe in “I clicked the payment button by accident, please refund,” or in “My kids played with my iPad, it wasn’t me; please refund.” Come on, be a grown-up. Take responsibility.

Therefore, before purchasing, please make sure you read everything carefully and you understand what this lifestyle is about. Please ensure that you are prepared to fully commit to the changes and tasks that must be accomplished.

I also value my time and expertise, and I do not work for free. There is immense value in the service I offer, with great benefits for you. However, to get results, YOU have to do the WORK. I cannot do the inner work for you. I cannot shift your mindset for you. I cannot meditate for you (although I can and will pray for you). I cannot eat the bananas for you. I cannot track the calories for you to ensure you eat enough. YOU have to do all those things. I’ll set you in the right direction, but it is your path to walk.

Therefore, to avoid unpleasant surprises and disappointments that this lifestyle is not for you, please READ THE DESCRIPTION of the products I’m selling and reread this entry on the shop page. 

Thank you so much for understanding.
