  The Empath

  The most intuitive and sensitive of all the personality types, the Empath 'knows' things without needing all the facts. An Empath is excellent at reading people and picking up what other people are feeling without being told. This sensitivity can be a blessing and a curse as they can be deeply affected by people's energy and things around them. The Empath is the most in touch with their feelings out of all the personality types. They are known for being an authentic and compassionate person who is diplomatic, enthusiastic, imaginative, relationship-oriented, and highly ethical. They are fascinated by human potential and are inspiring to others with their natural talent to find the meaning and purpose behind life events.They may have gained weight due to trauma (emotional, physical, or sexual) as a way to protect themself (to appear bigger, stronger, or less attractive). The Empath may also turn to food to make themself feel better, especially if they feel sad or upset. Their mind is programmed to use food as a source of comfort, so trying to use willpower when they are feeling stressed is usually highly ineffective. An Empath does best with a holistic approach while considering their emotional, physical, and spiritual needs. Becoming in touch with their own needs and what needs healing helps them focus on their health, nutrition, and exercise by understanding how making lifestyle changes will help them fullfil their dreams. The Empath loses weight when their efforts focus on their values, and they receive positive encouragement and support from others along the way. Clearing any trauma that has caused the belief that extra weight keeps them safe may be vital to achieving their weight loss goals, especially if they keep sabotaging themselves. Addressing and updating the weight gaining programs that have developed in the subconscious mind helps create lasting change.

  The Boss personality type values learning and accomplishment and strives to understand the world. They are known for being outspoken, confident, and ambitious - you feel their presence when they walk into a room.As a driven personality, they are often too busy to eat and have to force themselves to stop what they are doing not because they are hungry, but because it's time to eat. The Boss personality type tends to neglect things that they feel are a waste of their time – including their health. They may tend to wait until they are 'starving' and then overeat as a result. The Boss tries hard not to eat to full, but they often stuff themselves and then feel guilty and ashamed when they do. They continuously promise that they will 'be better tomorrow' or 'will start a diet on Monday' to relive the same cycle, over and over.When it comes to losing weight and getting fit, an effective way to start is by making their well-being a priority and connect it with becoming more successful. Then they can use their sharp intellect and strategic skills to create a plan for success. The Boss' personality likes scientific information and data to devise their own protocol to achieve and maintain their fitness and weight loss goals. It is also vital to update unhelpful programs, including not prioritizing exercise and a healthy diet developed in the subconscious mind, to achieve lasting weight loss. Changing their identity at the subconscious level to a person who instinctively eats healthy and exercises regularly is the key to reaching their weight loss goals. What works:Setting measurable goals Food delivery or meal prepCounting calories or macrosResearching the latest scienceCreating their own strategy/plan Competition or an upcoming eventReprogramming the subconscious mind What doesn't work:In-person weight loss meetings Discussing emotions and traumas Doing what everyone else is doingSpontaneity and leaving things to chanceBeing told exactly what to do by an 'authority figure' You did it!You've just taken the first step towards discovering why shedding pounds is hard for you.

  The most analytical of all the personality types, the Analyst likes to be organized and prepared. They have a strong sense of right and wrong, respect authority, and prefer to follow the rules. Loyal and trustworthy, the Analyst has high standards for themselves and others. Home and family are important to the Analyst, and they are nurturing, caring people who enjoy doing things for others. They are detail-oriented and prefer structure and routine. They can have an artistic eye and think of the little details that take things to the next level. The Analyst personality loves having a list of tasks to complete. They like to stay busy, and they tend to be productive at whatever they focus on. While individuals with the Analyst personality type tend to keep their emotions guarded, they are, in fact, deeply emotional people. They can easily swing from happiness to total disappointment if something doesn't go as expected or they feel like they have missed out. One of their most dominant traits is perfectionism. They have a clear idea of the perfect way things should be done, the perfect situation, and the perfect outcome. When the perfect outcome does not eventuate, they can become incredibly disappointed, which can lead to comfort eating and addiction issues to cope with painful emotions. If they feel that they didn't follow their diet correctly, the Analyst can feel like the day's ruined anyway, so they may as well binge and then restrict themselves the next day, leading to disordered eating patterns. The more structured a program is, the more successful it will be for the Analyst personality. When choosing a meal plan, the Analyst personality type should make sure it has a detailed menu that outlines the measurements and ingredients for each meal of the day.It is also imperative to address and update the unhealthy habits and programs developed in the subconscious mind to create lasting weight loss.
