The Dieter's Guide to Successful Self Coaching
– Is it worth buying?
If you are really serious about your weight loss goals, you most
likely spend a lot of time searching the internet for different weight loss programs
and diets. I do. And in order for us to create a system that really works, it
is imperative to feel empowered that what you are doing is right. Recently, I purchased
one of the most popular diet guides around – The Dieter's Guide to Successful
Self Coaching.
In This weight loss
program, you will:
- Learn the ten principles of effective nutritional planning and self coaching.
- Learn how to easily master the power of self regulation and self discipline.
- Create a customized nutrition program that works for you.
Specified Diet
Outline – Not What I was expecting...
This weight loss program has quite a solid reputation for
getting people motivated to take action. To be honest with you though, I didn't
find the menu planning to be very specific.
Let’s face it, there’s no diet guide that is going to be the
end all be all to what we know about the subject, right? The Dieter's Guide To
Successful Self Coaching, for all it's good points, does not give you a
specific diet that you can simply print and post on your fridge. Don't get me
wrong, I like the fact that the author focuses on being a guide to helping you
select the menu choices that are custom tailored to your needs, it's just that
I am so used to authors telling me exactly what to eat and how much.
Becoming Your Own
Coach
Now, there is one thing that clearly makes this diet the obvious
winner for dedicated dieters and that is the step by step process of becoming
your own coach so that you can feel confident and empowered that you are doing
nutrition correctly. Let’s face it, we can print out a diet from a fitness book
or off the internet, but it is the customization of the diet plan that really
makes this program work. Even if you already have hundreds of diet books, this
diet guide utilizes the information you have already learned, rather than
override it is false or wrong.
And that’s where The Dieter's Guide
really stands out from other diets. You will get all the facts about how to
successfully master your own fitness and nutrition program. And, best of all,
the program empowers you with techniques for self mastery that is really
cutting edge. This feature, alone, has saved me tons of time by telling me how
specifically to modify what I am currently doing in order to receive the
benefit for my hard work and dieting efforts.
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- This
diet lays out the ten principles effective nutritional planning and self
coaching. It has detailed worksheets for you to follow along through the
self coaching process, saving you time in creating your own self coaching
system. This feature alone makes it a steal at any price, as none of us
want to waste our valuable time.
- The
eBook teaches you how to master the power of self regulation, which in my
opinion has made all the difference for me in my nutrition plan being a
success.
- A
customized nutrition plan that works for you. My favorite part was once I
was done creating the plan, as mentioned in the eBook; Nancy offered to
review my plan. I emailed it to her and she gave me great feedback on how
to make it even better. She actually tells you to email her!
Cons:
- Diet
outlines are vague. Don't expect a detailed nutrition plan that you can
print and post on your fridge. You will have to do the work in order to
customize it to fit your specific needs.
My Conclusion
While this dieting guide isn’t perfect, it is easy to see
why it’s such a popular diet guide to help empower you to be your own coach. I
like the step by step process of taking action after reading each chapter,
through the worksheets. Nancy also makes sure we are holding ourselves
accountable and paints a clear picture as to what that looks like. Coming from
an expert in the fitness industry, I really appreciate how she inspires me to
be the expert and take on the responsibility of my own nutrition plan. If I
were to hire her for one on one coaching it would cost me almost $1,000 so I am
so glad that for less than the price of a personal training session, I was able
to create a custom plan that helped me get in the best shape I have been in
since I was in my 20's.
If you've been struggling with your diet and are confused
and frustrated by all the gurus out there telling you exactly what you need to
eat, not to mention all the while not getting the results you want, then I
highly recommend you order The Dieter's Guide To Successful Self Coaching. It
is an easy to use guide that got me on my way to looking and feeling like a
fitness expert, in control of my nutrition.
