About the Guest:
As a full-figured woman who struggled with her weight for years, Sarah finally found the key that all diets were missing. After bouncing between fad diets and struggling with her body image, Sarah realized she had been “waiting on the weight” – waiting to be thin before she: got the great job, the great relationship, lived a life beyond her wildest dreams.
When Sarah stopped waiting on the weight, she finally did all the things that she had put on hold for years: going for her ideal job, flirting with her dream guy, going out dancing and living a fully engaged life. In her words, the late night “pity snacking” ceased with all the joy and activity this new lifestyle brought and finally created a body she loved.
Now as the founder of Live More Weigh Less TM, the most popular non-diet weight loss program on the Internet, she believes that every woman deserves to have their ideal body, which is not looking like your 23-year-old self, your best friend or your favorite celebrity. It’s about creating YOUR perfect body for your phase of life, constitution and lifestyle.
