[Current Wealth and Weight Loss Journey] Maybe you have Candida?
In my work with overweight clients and my research I have learned about Candida and how it affects your gut and your weight loss progress. I have had it myself. What many people don’t know is that it can also affect other parts of you, including mental acuity, sharpness, or brain fuzziness and memory. Those, of course, interfere with our ability to think clearly and accomplish our goals with velocity and power.
In my interview with health expert Karen Stilson entitled, “Candida, the Sneaky Yeast that Sabotages our Health and Weight,” you will receive great information to determine if this is something you should consider as you move toward Wealth and Health in your life.
I trust you will benefit from this free resource. Here are some other resources you should consider. These programs will support you in creating a new relationship to wealth and money and an expanded stream of income. They are now open for registration:
- Special Weight of Money Breakthrough 90-day Group Coaching Program. Contact me for specific details at Janis@JanisPullen.com
- If you are a coach or a health practitioner who would like a booming business and would like to help people keep their weight off forever, please check out the new O.W.L. Weight Loss Certification and Training Program which begins in February. This program combines leadership skills, powerful coaching techniques, business building training, as well as teaching the 9 sabotage patterns block permanent weight loss and how to shift them. This program can be your pathway to expanding your income stream and improving your finances in the coming year.

[Current Wealth Journey] We’re expanding “Current Weight Loss Journey”!
Exciting news! Since how we do one thing is how we do everything, the Thursday blog post “My Current Weight Loss Journey” is going to expand to include wealth and the steps I take to expand my revenue, profitability, and overall wealth. So if you love tips and strategies to creating new wealth, then you will love this next phase of my blog posting. And if you loved to read my tips on weight loss, don’t worry! You can apply these same principles to your weight. To receive my new postings in your inbox, please enter your email into the box under ‘Sign Up for my Blog’ and when I put up a new post, you will get it right into your email inbox.
In my free teleclass last week, “Become the Ultimate Coach: 3 Secrets to extraordinary profits and results in your weight loss practice,” I discussed one of the 9 ontological weight loss sabotage patterns that overweight people run. Today I’m going to show you how that same sabotage affects our wealth; it’s called Sacrifice/Entitlement. (For the recording of this class, please visit www.JanisPullen.com/ultimatecoach/.)
The mindset of Sacrifice/Entitlement, also known as Deprivation/Indulgence shows up in our wealth like this: It can start with either the sacrifice side or the entitlement side of the sabotage. For instance, if you have gotten yourself into debt or overspending (entitlement/indulgence), you may decide to put yourself on a budget. But if you don’t have a well-constructed plan of action, the budget might be taken to extreme and then becomes sacrifice/deprivation. You can operate within your budget for a while until something happens. Then you “binge” on spending and go back into entitlement/indulgence.
Many times when we go off our budget, or when we don’t have one at all, our spending is a result of this mindset: “What the heck; I spent this much, so what difference will a little more make?” Just like an over eater whose eating spins out of control to a binge, so can purchasing. “I spent too much, so now I’m stressed out, so I’ll buy something else to feel better.”
The sacrifice/entitlement sabotage doesn’t have to be triggered by money-related events. If someone has worked hard and been stressed out during the day (sacrifice), she might believe she “deserves” to buy herself something to compensate (entitlement). Any time people spend because they deserve it, you can bet there is sacrifice/entitlement sabotage at work.
The mindset for the sacrifice/entitlement sabotage pattern is an all-or-nothing, either-or context. The mindset is “I deserve this because I did that.” Or the reverse – “because I did that, I now can’t have that.” The problem, as with all the sabotage patterns, is that they destroy any chance of long-term, sustained wealth growth. To discover how to deal with this sabotage, be sure to listen to the “Become the Ultimate Coach” audio at www.JanisPullen.com/ultimatecoach/. Even though it addresses weight loss, the same principles can be applied to wealth generation.

[My Current Weight Loss Journey] The flu! I missed two days of eating…a miracle?
I am recovering from the flu over the holidays. I never knew that you could actually miss two days of eating unless you were in love or on a fast! Yet, my appetite totally disappeared. What do they say…”Feed a cold; starve a fever”? Well the fever wanted to be starved, because I couldn’t imagine eating anything last week and am still having trouble looking forward to anything but soup. It wasn’t stomach flu either.
Although I felt irritated at first about being ill, including the inconvenience and suffering involved, I feel grateful in some respects, because my body is now cleaned out and rested. It’s as though my body was signaling me to rest and to also give my digestion a rest so that I could have a jump start of energy and focus in January.
What is your relationship to illness? Do you get annoyed? Do you view it as a time to lay low and heal? Do you allow people to serve and support you? I’m interested to hear your reflections.

The most “WOW” part of Janis for me, is the ownership that she takes in working with you! She approaches the relationship as a “Partnership”, which means that she takes a “Personal stake” in your results. This approach inspires you to follow her guidance and do the work because you know that she cares as much as you do about your progress!

[Current Weight Loss Journey] Update on marathon
Thank you for some very insightful comments and questions from readers about my marathon decision. Anthony Robbins teaches that we have several needs as human beings: certainty, variety, significance, love, growth, and contribution. As I reflected on the question of whether to continue with my commitment to walking a marathon, I reviewed my own needs accordingly.
I know that my motivators in movement, as well as life in general, consist of both variety and certainty. Certainty implies a constancy, or sameness. Variety implies difference. So it would seem these are at odds with each other. However, I know from experience and being aware of how I operate that consistency motivates me when I am consistent with scheduling movement every morning and that variety motivates me when I can switch from one activity to another based upon my mood and energy level on any given day.
Since marathon training requires workout consistency regarding lengthening distances, I have decided NOT to pursue that goal at this time. I much prefer a potpourri of Zumba, Jazzercise, walking, tennis, golf, bicycle, swimming, weights, etc. to a routine of walking so many miles so many days a week.
[Success Tip] Are you Slipping, Sliding, or Binging? Here’s how to escape.
In working with numerous clients as well as my O.W.L. Certification and Training students, I work with many people who get off track with their goals and commitments and don’t know how to get back on. They beat themselves up for not being “perfect” and the self-deprecation and remorse is worse than getting off track. Using the terminology of 12-step programs, here are some tips to help you navigate your departure and get back on plan.
Success Tip: Your process is perfect when you are actually in process.
We’ll use weight loss and food as examples, but this could also be applied to spending off budget or any other compulsion that deters you from your goals.
First, let’s define the terms:
- A slip is eating something not on plan just once. So going off your plan just once is a slip because it doesn’t lead to anything worse. When you get right back on track, no harm is done.
- A slide is eating off plan a couple of times in a series, not stopping after the one time. A slide can set you back in your weight goals, but it is a minor detraction and can be remedied by renewing your commitment and getting back on plan. Conscious choice is your empowerment tool.
- Binging is when you keep going with eating off plan; you don’t stop with the slip or the slide. With a binge you give away your personal power and allow your sabotage patterns to run your life instead. You are in full blown victim mentality. The harm here is huge! Not only do you deter from your weight goal, but you also have emotional backlash such as self-recrimination, lowered self-esteem, guilt, remorse, etc. And it’s a vicious cycle. You might be tempted to spiral down into resignation with a worse binge, which makes emotional damage harder to heal.
So how do you get back on track from these?
Here are your tips:
- Have compassion for yourself; you are human, not a robot! Remember, your process is perfect.
- Practice exploring “What’s so, what’s missing, what’s next?”
- Evoke your presence and awareness to determine what happened…What’s so?
- Ask yourself what went wrong…What’s missing?
- Recommit to your goal and determine what the next step will be toward that goal.
Warmly,
PS: Coming Soon…my new book is in it’s revision stages: ‘Lose Weight for Life: 9 Unconscious Reasons You Can’t Keep the Weight Off and What to Do About It’. I’ll keep you posted when it’s done!
Success Story
I want to acknowledge Janis Pullen today for being a freaking AWESOME coach! She helped me see that I was playing a game I couldn’t possibly win (in the empowered sense of the word). Together we designed a new game complete with rules I love and prizes that feed my spirit.
Specifically, she was an impeccably insightful listener, patient yet interruptive when necessary, lavished me with acknowledgement, and was so creative I wanted to play along.
Thank you, Janis!
