Tribe News - 27th June 2022

 

CELEBRATION 🥳🥳🥳 Beautiful Angela has achieved Prima. Check out the Tribie Spotlights below.


Growth growth growth. 

While we shrink our weight here in the Tribe we grow so much personally. 

When I started my weight loss journey I didn't often move my focus from my head into my body to see what I actually felt. If I was asked how I was I'd always say "Good" or "great". 

As we move along our journey's we build our feelings vocabulary and become more familiar with what we feel in our bodies. This helps us with emotional health, especially emotional eating which helps our weight loss. 

All that I learn and grow helps me in so many other areas of life (especially as a parent). I've included a little video of my youngest son Louis on a Ferris Wheel today.

He's been on one bigger than that and was fine. But today, before we went on this Ferris Wheel, I took him on a scary roller coaster (even I was scared) so he was still getting over it poor fella. (Please forgive my laughter in the video ha ha ha it seems horrible in such a time but I just can't help myself. The laughter did end up helping him relax). 

Anyway, the reason I include this video is because he's so cute.... and also because of his ability to check in with his body and voice how he feels. 
It's been a BIG effort and lot's of practice for me to first help myself identify different feelings and then help my kids.

We're a work in progress still but that's the win...the progress and how confidently my son expresses his discomfort. When I learn and grow, others around me learn and grow too.

I saw a wonderful post from beautiful Tribie Diane who shared 'things she's started to say since joining the Tribe' that really highlighted her growth and change. Other Tribies joined in and shared theirs too.  

Things I’ve started saying since I joined the tribe
“So good”
“2 great days”
“that’s interesting
🤔
“a little bit will hurt”
“it never tastes as good as you think it will”
“planning gives me freedom”
“plan and show up”
“get back up”
“hello old thoughts”
“it’s in the thought line”
“I’m on the slip road / dirt track making a new path”
“butterfly soup"
"My brain is rewiring"
" I'm a beautiful mess!"
"Shake it up"
"Let the thought/feeling be there. It's in the back seat."
"Just sit with it… it will pass."
"Stand tall, stand proud"
"Love who you are right now."
"You’re just where you’re meant to be right now."
"Are you actually hungry?"
"I’ll plan for that tomorrow if I want it."
"So awesome!"
"I’m not a Robot"
I find myself starting conversations in my head with "ok, this is the circumstance" then work through it from there.... love it!!
"‘I can do hard things!"
"This is the perfect plan for me."
"I’m not a dog …I don’t need treat."
"My thoughts are my biggest obstacle to me losing weight."
"I think one of the words that is now fully embedded into my life now is REALISTIC (apologies for the caps! 🤣). I use it in all aspects of my life - parenting especially."
Always asking myself is that realistic for today.

These are all so wonderful. Keep practicing them. Borrow them, use them if they're helpful. 

Thank you Diane and all the Tribies who contributed.
 

This Week:

I want you to continue to self coach. Continue (or start if you haven't) doing thought downloads or journaling, and putting your thoughts into models. This work is the foundation, not just for weight loss but for growth right across your life areas. 

On my Group Coaching Calls we'll be doing more models (because your thoughts are what create your results) and I'll be teaching you about the Gap and the Gain. 

 

Tribie Spotlight: Prima Angela 🥳

 Congratulations Angela 

Start of my journey at 11st 12lbs and today at 9st 9lbs 💃

Thank you all - feeling the love ❤️ I’ve had a wonderful day which was planned last week at the power up meeting when I set my date for reaching Prima. I stood on the scales with trepidation this morning and then danced around the bathroom when I saw I had done it 💃
Wore my new dress (2 sizes smaller than when I started my journey) had my hair done, met friends for lunch then a catch up with more friends later. Have been on a high all day and feel fantastic 😄

 

Angela, I'm so proud of you for putting yourself first, showing up to the calls, putting your hand up to get coached and how you kept getting back up every time you fell. 
It's not been the journey you expected but it's been the perfect journey for you. And you've done it. You've achieved your goal. Congratulations.

 

What's On:

Our What's On calendar has been updated. You can find all that's coming up here: https://www.fastmamatribe.com/whatson 

Lot's of love.
Lindell xoxo
