Weight Loss for Successful Women

76

It’s time to get off the diet roller coaster. So many successful women are thriving in most areas of their lives - family, love, business, leadership - but continue to struggle with their weight. They feel hopeless and frustrated with diets and false promises. There is a different way - one that doesn’t involve dieting, endless products, or counting every calorie. Your host Shannan Christiansen is a Fortune 100 Executive and Weight Loss Coach. Five years ago she decided she’d never diet again, and found a way to lose eighty pounds while transforming her relationship with her body. Each week, we’ll explore the thoughts and feelings that contribute to the struggles many successful women have with weight. If you’re tired of the typical approach to losing weight and are ready to try something new, you’re in the right place. To learn more, visit bflycoaching.com.

    Influenced
    Yes! Loved this episode. There are jobs now that people make money off influencing others around them and on social. This concept is so true. We often think we have to do things just like “her” to get results. The best results come from learning from those around us and then choosing how best we can apply that to our life and needs. Thank you shannan as always for sharing such great insight.

    Too Good So It’s True
    Finally finished all 190 episodes in 4 months. Down 22 lbs! Shannon, thx for ALL the insight. Best concept for me? Changing “I can’t have it” to “I don’t want it.” Allowance and abundance brought me amazing freedom. Now I am in withdrawal for your podcasts which I can only listen to weekly instead of every day… You are my evening walking companion and my inspiration! Think I will just start all over again! Ladies, don’t miss a single one, it’s life changing! From: Rosy M, FL Girl PS: Love AZ, my brother lives 5 miles from you! May have to join TB and do an event!

    Shannan’s Takes
    I have been listening to Shannan’s podcasts since day one. They are chock full of information, tips and tricks. They have been a huge part of my Weightloss journey. If I need a quick hit of inspiration I just plug my ear buds in and listen to one of Shannan’s amazing podcasts. So, I challenge all the ladies to give it a listen. Thank you Shannan for share your thoughts and experiences.❤️

    Episode #150 - Basics of Weight Loss Success Tips
    Great podcast. I finally joined Transform in February 2022 after listening to Shannan’s podcasts and Facebook lives 2 years prior. I’ve learned that there is more than seeing the number on the scale go down. The basic fundamental tools helped me on so many levels especially having a positive mindset to take each day at a time towards success even when it is not perfect. Thank you Shannan and congratulations!
  • Cynthia Joncas
    Love this group!!!❤️

    Episode 152. Cost
    I particularly like taking care of oneself. I also like taking ownership of where I am at. That is not someth8ng I often do and understand it is another step toward keeping weight off for life. I like the acronym.
  • Sharon Spohn
    Back to the Basics
    Shannan, I can't believe this is episode 150. I have been listening since day 1. These podcasts give ladies information to get of the diet roller coaster. The tips and advice you give to all the ladies gives them hope and a different way of starting on the path to losing weight for the last time and believing in themselves again. Thank you so much!

    Roadmap to New You
    Shannan listening to these podcasts are the best part of my day! I can fit them in my busy schedule and they are such good nuggets! You have literally paved out a roadmap to change our thoughts, beliefs, automatic habits and getting back to my authentic self! Each one is so encouraging to love myself and be my own bestie! I have buffered with food for so long!! I can honestly say I’m off the roller coaster of gaining and losing weight! From the brain hacks, to a course in upleveling your daily habits, to changing my thoughts and beliefs I now know I matter, I’m loveable and deserve a life of freedom from food! Thank you to Shannan and her team! This program has been life changing for me!! Kelly P.

    Are You Bored with Weight Loss
    This podcast has really hit home with me. Now that the weather is finally warm, I have been adding outdoor movement to my day. I have dubbed them “Walking with Shannan”. It is a time where I put in my ear buds, walk and listen to your podcasts, (as well as replays from the Transform Program.) It totally made me giggle, because I have so been clicking on those diet social media ads, only to laugh more, because I have found a better way, Ladies if you haven’t taken the plunge, join Transform. Shannan is so real and the community of women are so great. I feel that I have so much support and love throughout my journey. I have learned so much and losing the weight is just the cherry on top!
  • Dana Hageman-Allen
    The Real Deal!
    Shannan, I am hoping that all the ladies that are following your podcast and are on the fence about joining Transform read all these great reviews and join us! I have only one regret, that I didn't find you sooner! You are the "real deal". You are kind, compassionate, smart, funny, you love all the ladies and you have helped us all drop our crazy diet beliefs and start believing in ourselves, losing weight, repairing relationships, dreaming big. And it's all because of you and what you have taught us! I am so much happier (and 35 lbs lighter!) and I am so thankful that I found you and the Transform ladies! Here's to 2022!

    Ep 94 - Impossible to lose weight - TOTALLY POSSIBLE
    Shannan, I just listened to this podcast again, like I have probably the majority of them, and I get something different out of them each time. Realizing that the word "impossible" is just that - a word! It means nothing until we make it mean something. Just kind of opened my eyes that ANYTHING and EVERYTHING is POSSIBLE! And the statement you made of "it's impossible to live in a body that you do not love" really hit home. I am not totally there yet, but getting there, and am getting closer each day, thanks to you and your teaching. Thank you for all you do for us Bosses. I am so grateful for you and have so much love for you!

    EP119: Achieve Your Impossible Goal in 2021
    Hi Shannon, I loved listening to this podcast. I learn so much from you each and every time, whether it’s a listening/participating in a coaching call, BFLY on Facebook, the workbook, RP, etc. This is the second time this year listening about the “impossible goal.” My very first reaction was, how does Shannon expect me to do this. It’s not about Shannon, but myself. It’s not about achieving the impossible but who I become working towards it. Thank you Shannon for all your guidance and support. Wanda

    Big Help
    This podcast got me started in the program a couple months ago and the knowledge that i've gained is amazing! My way of thinking in regards weight is changing and my self-esteem has grown, I'm starting to love myself more and more! Thank you from the bottom of my heart...

    More Than I Ever Expected
    I joined Transform in March 2020 after watching Shannan’s public FB Lives, listening to her weekly podcasts, and taking her free course. I can honestly say that joining was the best thing I ever did for myself. Shannan definitely overdelivers. Not only did I lose 28 pounds, but I gained self-confidence and learned to really love myself for the first time ever. I have made lifelong friendships and have improved family relations. I have also learned how to show up for myself and keep commitments to myself. Thank you Shannan, Dawn, Jenn for believing in me. The support I get from you and all the ladies in Transform is more than I ever expected!!

    The Transform Bosses
    This is my favorite podcast and I look forward to every new episode - I always learn so much! I absolutely loved this episode and hearing stories of ladies who have the same struggle with weight loss that I do. Listening to their stories gives me so much inspiration and hope! Beautiful women supporting beautiful women! Thanks for sharing your stories and tips for success! Makes me feel unstoppable!
  • gabbyjoan
    Absolutely love this podcast!
    I found this podcast and Shannan in January and absolutely love her outlook on weight loss! I have struggled with my weight for 10 years now and was honestly ready to just give up on trying to lose it. I love listening to her stories and advice, and it has helped me so much. I’ve lost 20 pounds now just from changing my mindset and still going! I always look forward to her new content on Wednesdays as it helps me keep going and pushing through those tough days. Thank you Shannan for helping me and all the other ladies :)

    Life Changing
    I am so glad that I found Shannan and Transform. I have learned so much from this podcast. Shannan's methods work and make losing weight something I know I can do for good while loving myself through the journey. Her compassion and heart for helping women is awesome and led me to join Transform where I am going even deeper. Shannan has changed my life.

    Just started listening to the podcasts. Good information. Hope this helps me. Thanks for everything❤️‍🔥

    Weight loss the right way…
    I have been on a diet rollercoaster for over 35 years… I have been with transform for about a year… I was very nervous to join. I kept telling myself that I didn’t have the money to join. Then I just decided to take the plunge and try it. This has been the best thing to happen to me. I have lost 38 pounds and have kept it off. This is the only time that I have kept it off. I am 8 pounds from my goal weight. This has totally changed my life and I finally have the support I need. I’m so glad that transform popped up on my Facebook page and gave a 5 day’s challenge for free. Shannon to a very true person and totally loves you all the way through…

    Breakthrough in weight loss!
    Listening to Shannan talk about losing weight while discovering all your strengths is a pleasure. She teaches you different techniques on how to feel your feelings so that you can stop buffering them with food. She also teaches you how to lose weight while you show love, grace and compassion for yourself. This is what healthy weight loss is all about!

    I have been listening to the podcast for almost a year now. Shannan has helped me learn tips and techniques about how to change my thoughts around food. It’s been a life changing year for me. Thank you Shannan!

    Its more than weight loss!
    This podcast has changed my life because it led me to the transform weight loss group. Even though, I'm in the Transform, and indulge in all that goodness too, I still come to these podcasts for daily guiadence. I listen to them while working around the house, driving, or mowing the lawn. I love it! It's become my time to myself and for myself. Listening to these really helps me focus on me and my goals and really touches every single aspect of life, not just weight loss. I have lost weight, but there is so much more to it than that. Before learning from Shannan I thought weight was my main "fault." But now, I truly love my body, (which I didn't think was possible until I reached my goal, I have better relationships, and better overall thoughts, all while not settling and continuing to improve myself. Everything about the podcasts, Transform, and Shannan, I feel, was really meant to be. I'm still a work in progress and looking forward to my future and my goals with no more shame from my past. Thank You Shannan!

    My Daily Inspiration
    This Podcast has become my daily inspiration, it has become a morning ritual for me as I am getting ready for the day! Shannan understands the struggles that every women has dealt with that has struggled to lose weight because she has done it! She gets to the root of the problem… our brain and teaches amazing tools to help you learn and grow. I started listening to the podcasts at the end of 2020 after putting on more weight during the pandemic and found myself learning and growing so much! By March I was down 18lbs and did one of Shannan’s 5 day challenges, and after that decided to join her program, and I am so glad I did. Shannan is so real and so are the beautiful community of ladies that are there to love and support you every step of the way! I am now down 35 lbs and feeling so much better physically and mentally. It was seriously the best decision I ever made for myself! I have learned so much more than just how to lose weight, I have learned to love myself and my life again!

    I look forward to your new podcast every Wednesday for inspiration and insight. I’ve been on the diet roller coaster for as long as I can remember. I’ve tried all the things - counting points, keto, even weight loss surgery and lost weight but couldn’t keep it off. I’ve lost 30lbs with Transform doing work on my thoughts and learning to keep commitments to myself. The impact Shannan has had in my life goes far beyond the scale. I’m learning to dream, fill my life 50/50 with joy and grace, and create stronger relationships with my loved ones. Thank you Shannan for the passion you have for helping women. You’ve certainly made a difference in my life!

    Finally!
    I am so glad I stumbled upon this. It’s like she speaks directly to me. She covers everything needed to actually make a difference in my life. I feel like she’s organized all the crazy thoughts in my head from dealing with weight my whole life. She helps us identify our emotions and thoughts that I didn’t even know I had all these years. I’ve tried everything and I always gain my weight back. This is really working and it’s sticking mentally. Finally! More importantly I don’t feel like I have to white knuckle through diets my whole life. I have hope for my future of FREEDOM. Also, Shannan’s loving way of talking is what we really need too. This whole time I thought I was too “easy “ on myself and thought that I needed a coach to yell in my face biggest loser style in order for me to lose weight. Turns out, I have been too harsh on myself this whole time which is what leads to a perpetual roller coaster. Thanks Shannan and all of BFly! Also how do I buy stock in this program? It’s going to do amazing things for Soooo many people for sure!

    Amazing influence
    I need more than weight shaming. I need to find a new mindset and Mrs Christensen offers just that. Now I just need to find a place that offers diet mechanical guidance. 😊

    She Understands the Struggle!
    This podcast has helped me when i was at a low in life,I had lost weight and gained back 100 pounds within two years and it wasnt even the first time i have been doing this most of my life. I felt lost and alone. Why do i have such a struggle with this? Shannon has given me hope,she knows how it feels. she gave me a realistic plan that includes food i eat everyday and tools that help change my relationship with food and my thoughts about it. I am changing from the inside out this time, so i can learn to love my life not food. I am starting to believe in myself again

    Keep It Simple - Simply Amazing!
    Another amazing podcast! Every time I listen to one of her podcasts, I feel as if Shannan is speaking directly to me. She always seems to know just what I’m struggling with and how to face it. And in a way that is easy to do. As I’ve been struggling to do it all, she reminds me that I don’t have to. I can make decisions ahead of time on what I want to do; what will serve me and make me happy. She reminds me to keep things simple; don’t overwhelm myself with trying to do all the things. And as I’m feeling discouraged that my progress isn’t as fast as I’d like, she reminds me not to compare myself with others and that as long as it takes it’s okay because it’s the last time I’ll have to lose these pounds. I know I am learning to transform my thoughts but sometimes I slip back into my old way of thinking. Listening to Shannan makes me pause to reflect on my thoughts and feelings. She brings a sense of calm to my life and makes me feel as though I can conquer anything. I’m so thankful that I joined the Transform Society and can’t wait to see where this journey takes me!

    Binge Worthy
    So I may have just binged all 58 released episodes the past two days at work. I just couldn’t stop listening to it! The advice is so practical and REALISTIC. So many weight loss and/or self-help programs want you to do so many things and are impractical and unrealistic. This is for the everyday person. The content is so applicable, and I even doodled a few reminders on sticky notes to keep on my desk. I see myself in the future listening to these over and over again because there is always something that I need to hear.
  • DolanLisa
    Wish I had found this sooner!
    I have been on the diet rollercoaster for pretty much my entire life. Shannan teaches so much more than weight loss. She teaches you that weight loss isn’t about dieting, it’s about changing your mindset. Her teachings are life changing. Shannan is real and she cares about each one of her students. I know this journey will be for the rest of my life. I only wish I had found her sooner! Take this journey with her. You will never regret it!

    Transforming
    I knew from the first time I listened to Shannan’s podcast that I wanted to join her membership. I was thankful for an opportunity to recently join the Transform Society. Shannan has been welcoming, supportive, and knowledgeable. I love that I get to create my own pathway and it doesn’t include being on a “diet.” Can’t wait to see my life change, as my mindset is already shifting.

    Drop the mental weight to drop the physical weight
    I really enjoy listening to this podcast. Shannan helps women understand how our thoughts cause our actions. In order to lose weight and keep it off for good, we need to understand how to listen to our bodies and put the diet mentality behind us. Since finding Shannan's podcast and FB page, I feel empowered. For the first time, I truly believe I have the ability to reach and maintain a healthy weight.

    Welcome podcast
    I just listen to your first podcast from Oct. I swear you are telling my story. I have been through one of your changes and just started the second.

    I am so grateful for finding you and these podcasts. I have been part of the roller coaster more years than I like to think about. Just as I was ready to throw in the towel I found Bfly and these podcasts. I have been listening during my morning routine, my drive to and from work and in the evening. You are the cheerleader I’ve needed. Thank you for sharing your stories and your teachings. I no longer feel alone in my thoughts. You rock!🤩

    So excited for YOU!
    Shannan, I love everything about this! I’ve known you since 1996 and have seen you go through many of these stages, so it’s fabulous that you’re sharing your journey and can help other women. You are a female advocate and we need more women like you! Can’t wait to listen to every episode! Thank you for your support during my cancer journey in 2018-2019. It meant a lot. 😘.
  • Sara Turner
    Amazing
    I’ve been listening to these and the way Shannan breaks things down makes perfect sense and feels so easy to follow. Anyone who thinks they’ve tried “everything” should really listen this to break open their own minds to a new way of thinking.

    Such a God sent
    I have struggled with my weight my entire adult life. People think be used I’m not hundreds of pounds overweight it’s not a big deal but it is to me. I am ashamed of how I look and am not even comfortable in my own skin. When I came across Shannon’s page and free mini sessions it was really a sign from God that someone is here to help me. I really enjoy listening to her and she is so inspirational to me that I will continue to listen. I’m very new to this but I am also very hopeful and encouraged by what I have heard. Thank you Shannon for being here for us all. God bless you.
