Hey all my fellow non- dieters who still want to look their best. I’ve been low-key running this 4 week kickstarter challenge for a while now and have been making it tied to each month, beginning on the 1st of the month. That just meant that if you were ready to do it early on in the month then you had to wait a couple of weeks to begin and that doesn’t really work does it? When you want to start something to improve your life, then you want to start now! So I have updated the course to begin each Saturday.
So what the heck is the Tortoise Diet Lite 4 Week Challenge I hear you all say? Well, its the next step for you if you have read my book, The Tortoise Diet Method, which is essentially aimed at those of us who have been dieting all our lives but never consistently taken if off and kept it off for any meaningful length of time. I tell the story of how I gave up dieting because I was sick of the never ending cycle of not just trying new diets, but being preoccupied with even thinking about it all the time. So I decided to give up on them altogether. The problem was, I still wanted to look my best and I also wanted to feel and be my best.
So I set about looking at for solutions and put them all together in a system known as the Tortoise Diet Method. The word Diet is crossed out because I never want to diet again and nor should you. However, there are some things we can do that work with our human nature, not against it, such as creating habits. This is what the course is all about.
The Challenge is all about taking the method from theory into practice because I am all about effective behaviour. (This is part of the mission of the Professional Countrywoman - to help you live more beautifully, become more effective and live in abundance). So its a practical way to test out the theory, begin to lay a foundation of good habits and lose some weight all at once.
The way it works is that it is an online course using videos and notes to show you what to do each of the 4 weeks of the challenge. You are given a new behaviour each week that your aim is to turn into a. habit. So it comes with a workbook that includes a habit tracker, measurement tracker, meal planner and whatever else you need along the way.
The reason I have decided to get everyone to begin on a Saturday is that it’s a good day to get yourself organised and ready for the following week.
So there will be a community group that you will be invited to join once you register and it will be in that group that I will either pop in live or do a post to keep you on track. That will be the main form of community outside the online course.
And then when you've completed the course, you will get another habit tracker that you can continue to use to keep up your momentum and I’ll stay in touch to help. There will be other ways I can support you which I will update you on as I finalise them.
So If you are keen to by pass the pain of yoyo dieting but still want to lose some weight then this might be for you. The Course itself costs NZ$28 and if you would like to get the book at the same time then there is a sweet deal to get them both.
See you on Saturday!
