CBT FOR WEIGHT MANAGEMENT
SELF-HELP PROGRAMME
CBT FOR WEIGHT MANAGEMENT
SELF-HELP PROGRAMME
Have you managed to lose weight in the past only to have it all creep back on again?
This constant cycle of weight loss and weight gain is difficult and frustrating and can leave you feeling helpless, unhappy, guilty, ashamed, and with very low self-esteem.
You may be looking to lose weight for health reasons, or you want to eat healthier and start exercising in order to stay healthy.
However, many people struggle to manage their weight, and this may be because you may
- lack the willpower to stay consistent.
- overeat when stressed
- not find the motivation to get started with healthy habits
Or maybe, you feel like you know what to do… but you just can’t make yourself do it.
The Mind over Body Weight Management is not a diet, it is a programme that teaches you how you can build self confidence, overcome emotional eating, learn skills that will lead to a healthier balance in eating, and most of all it will help you to get off the diet roller coaster.
LEARN CBT SKILLS TO HELP YOU OVERCOME DISORDERED EATING
Step by step easy to follow course based on the latest research in Psychology on the most effective way to achieve a better relationship with food and your body. During the course, you will get the latest Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) tools, which have been shown in hundreds of research studies to be more effective than diet and exercise alone helping you to manage your weight.
Managing your weight is more than just about eating less and moving more.
Most people know what healthy food looks like, but diet culture has thought you to crave and overeat on “forbidden” food. You may have been on many diets in the past and are now stuck in the “good food & bad food” mentality, which leads to feelings of guilt and shame when you are having a “bad food day”.
Instead of focusing on food and weight, focus on learning about yourself -, your emotions and what triggers overeating, and how to change from a diet mindset to a mindset that will support you in being compassionate to yourself.
In order to succeed in managing your weight, you need to learn a new way of thinking about food and yourself. The Mind over Body Weight Management Programme™ is based on Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness Therapy and will provide you with the tools to achieve a healthy relationship with food and yourself.

What this course will do for you
MEET THE FOUNDER, SUSI LODOLA
I understand that to lose weight and keep it off you need more than to “eat less & move more”. I learned that through my own experience, as I went through most of my life trying out the latest diets and exercise regimes which promised to help me lose weight.
I counted calories, points and syns, I cut out whole food groups, detoxed and drank shakes. I did lose weight on most of those plans, but I found it difficult to sustain and very soon the weight came back on, and then some more on top of it.
The thing is, I knew exactly what I should eat and what I shouldn’t it. Most of what I ate was healthy, home-cooked food. However, I was an emotional eater, and I found that is the case with most people who come to see me for weight management.
On the Mind over Body programme, you will learn the skill of weight loss, based on proven, cutting-edge psychology tools and techniques
What is Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT)?
.
Weight loss is complex, and research tells us that eating healthy and exercising is not enough to successfully lose weight and keep it off. We have deep-rooted emotional associations with eating and these have a huge impact on how and what we eat.
Diet and weight loss programmes that focus only on food and exercise are missing a vital component – they do not look at getting your mindset right to keep you motivated and successful in the long term.
CBT provides you with a set of tools that will change the way you think and therefore the way you behave around food. Changing behavior, in particular long-term, habitual patterns, takes practice and this programme will support you throughout to help you make those changes. The tools are for life and applying them consistently will enable you to maintain a healthy weight.

Testimonials
First off I would like to say how much I have enjoyed the classes, both the highs and the lows. I didn’t think that I would have enjoyed them as much as I did. I found the content to be extremely informative. I would have always been of the philosophy the only way to lose weight is the old adage “you eat less and you move more” and while that does have some merit it has obviously never worked for me (I move more & forget the eat less bit ????).
Previously, I would struggle with dieting for a while and then give up “it’s obviously not working”, “what’s the point”. But now I have a new perspective on my challenges, it’s not so much an uphill battle but more of a serpentine trek through the forest while I forage my new directions.
I think some of the most important things I have taken from the course are eating mindfully, never did that before just ate everything in front of me. I also love the idea of the “5 minutes” sometimes it works and I get distracted by whatever I’m doing and sometimes it doesn’t.
The reasons why, setting goals and giving yourself credit are some completely new ways of looking at weight loss to me. I think I do look at the negative sides a lot and not the good things that I have done and will do, so this is something that I really want to work on..
I would well recommend the programme to anyone who may be looking for a different perspective to weight loss.
I would like to wish you all the best with your next course of classes and who knows you might see me back in the future (but I hope not, in the best sense????).
A million thanks again for all you help,
I knew that I was in danger of completely sabotaging everything I have worked for over the past few years, so it was time to kick myself back into shape again.
Understanding that the one thing that stands between me and success is actually me,

Since starting the programme with Susi I can see how having been in other weight loss groups were just quick fixes. I would stick to a points system, lose weight but it wouldn’t be long before I put it on again. I was learning nothing. With Susi I am learning to change my thoughts and attitude toward food. As I learn new habits and behaviors I lose weight and have a better relationship with food.
This course was unlike any other weight loss programme but was the most successful. It taught us to understand the psychology behind our weight loss & gave us a clear road map for continuing on this journey. A fantastic course I would highly recommend it..
I feel like I learned skills that I can apply to other areas of my life too. I lost a stone in weight during the course and am still losing weight and enjoying my food more. I am really grateful to Susi for putting together and delivering this course.
I have discovered that Susi’s tagline ‘lose weight for the last time’ might actually be possible. I’ve tried to lose weight since I was a teenager but always put it back on. With Susi’s programme I learned to change my thinking and my habits around food. My weight loss is slow but it feels different to any other experience I’ve had so now I believe I can keep it off. Each week’s theme and materials matched what I needed very well and I feel like I have made real change. Susi practices what she preaches. She has a real understanding of what issues with weight feel like and communicates with empathy and kindness. This really helped me to engage with the programme and keep going.
Its very much a thought-provoking programme, and you deliver it in a very personal and intelligent way, helping me to rethink my own ability to change in very simple and effective ways.
I’ve always struggled with my weight, I’d lose some for a while and then put it back on again and then some. In the last few years I have tried different weight loss programmes which worked, but only for the short term.
When we got engaged in June 2016 I said that I wanted to lose weight for the wedding, because of the continuous celebrations that followed the engagement I ended up putting on more weight. I tried several times in the 1st year of our engagement to lose weight but with so many plans being made for the wedding everything was a reason to celebrate, and my idea of celebrating is treating ourselves to dinner out or a takeaway.
A friend of Philips had previously done the programme and told him all about it as it had really helped them to lose weight. I was a little bit apprehensive about it as I felt this could be another short term solution to what was my long term problem. I obviously couldn’t have been more wrong.
After my first session I knew that this wasn’t like all the other weight loss programmes. Susi goes into detail on why you look at food the way you do, she talks about what triggers your eating habits, how you may feel mentally and physically after eating certain foods and educates you on how to make better decisions surrounding your diet and this was a huge help for me.
I would definitely recommend the programme to anyone looking to make a positive change in their lives in relation to how they look at and treat food. Without doing the programme I wouldn’t have realised my own triggers which are feel good factors, I habe now learnt that I don’t need food to reward myself.
I really enjoyed the Mind over Body Weight Loss program. It was very motivating and encouraging. Unfortunately during this program we suffered a family bereavement so I found it hard to remain focused but I still found the material invaluable. Susi is always there to respond to any of our concerns. I highly recommend this program.
I would highly recommend Susi’s Mind over Body weight loss Programme. It is not a diet, it is about learning how to eat healthier and being conscious of your emotional eating. I am so happy I have followed this program, I have learned a lot and I know how to make healthy choices now. Susi is very supportive, helpful, always available, I felt I was always listened to and always connected with her. Thank you Susi!
