My Story - Projet Équilibre
For years, I have been overweight. I made several diets over time and I managed to lose + or - 50 pounds, each diet. Each time, it was euphoria and happiness ... of a definite duration. Doing yoyo has a significant impact on both physical and psychological health. Then one day, tired of all this false happiness, I decide to go to the end of my sadness and to regulate my eating disorders. This step took me two years of therapy.
In December 2018, I see appear "Projet Équilibre" of the Sporthèque in my newsfeed. At that time, I want to challenge myself and I do not want to lose weight, but to get in shape (I'm able to lose weight, I've done it many times, my challenge is to be well with myself and being a nice version of myself).
I believe that the beginning of December is a good time to begin a process. I meet my coach Joel. I must admit that I am a little skeptical, at first! Joel was an angel's patience. Those who know me know that I have a hard head and I'm just at my head. I kept an open mind. My coach Joel established a climate of trust between us and he answered my questions (even those I never dared to ask). I still lost weight but most importantly, I gained muscle mass which is not negligible. InBody tests have allowed me to see some interesting truths about my body. Meeting Joel regularly allowed me to be more motivated and improve my results. Joel told me that I had done very well while I found my course zero. The power of coaching should not be underestimated. I realized that I am very hard on myself. Thank you «Project
Balance "and thank you Joel.
