Martin s program changed my life

Martin s program and coaching changed my life I was sick of dieting yo-yo behaviours with food overeating and restricting I was desperate to change but had tried everything in the book or so I thought Then Martin s program popped up on my Facebook feed I was hooked from the discovery call I ve had coaches for other reasons in the past and this was the most in-depth exploratory talk I d experienced He was checking out what he could do or me and if I d suit the program That felt ethical and professional He nailed my issue I didn t know I had at this point in that first call I could see a way out of the dark-food-hole for the first time We started work I learnt new practices through online tutorials and weekly coaching support The material is bite-sized simple and reinforced via group sessions and one-to-ones Being in a group setting helped build a community to support one another I learnt how to calm and regulate my nervous system how to change my thinking patterns and ultimately how to have a completely new relationship with food I went from being obsessed with food thoughts body image and binge eating to food freedom What does that look like Barely thinking about food apart from what I m going to food prep or which restaurant to enjoy All urges to control and monitor my weight I threw the scales count calories and overeat have gone Food is now pleasure sustenance and entertainment It s not a self-soothing solution I learnt new ones It was a gradual process and you have to do the work to get the results It s a simple program but it takes dedication However it s nowhere near as hard as dieting taking up excessive fitness routines or beating yourself up I now get to use the toolkit in other areas of my life I can be excessive but I know how to read my needs and choose healthier courses of action now It works for food work habits perfectionism in my case and even relationships If you re on the fence jump over it and join Breakfree It s given me the headspace to relax focus on what is really important in life and be present It s been 5 months since I finished the program and the change continues I eat everything I want because I want less of it Now that is freedom

Well worth it

I came to a point in my life that I was so tired of dieting I was down in myself and I had a lot of unhelpful stories that dragged me down every day I spoke to Martin and realised this could be the only thing that can help me Getting skills and tools how to get food freedom and not a diet that works only when you are on it the moment you stop eating the diet food you pick up weight again I am so thankful for Martin and his patience with me Sometimes I felt that I am just not getting it Martin was ensuring me every week that I must hung in there and that I am doing it right Just keep on practicing The amazing thing happened the more I practiced the more joy I had in succeeding I know I am changing my food habits I stopped binging I don t get the urges to eat something all the time I have learned how to breath when I eat too fast and then also eating until I am satisfied That can mean that I leave food on my plate which never happened to me before I enjoyed working through the modules and also our weekly meeting with Martin and the other ladies on the call I learned so much on these calls I just want to thank Martin for the kindness in which he guided me through my journey on Breakfree Nutrition I am glad that I don t have a short term solution a diet plan but I have a long term solution by that I have skills to use every day of my life Vanessa

A genuine company that facilitates real results

I came to the FFBT program having struggled with anxiety and binge emotional eating on and off for nearly 50 years For a lot of that time I didn t know I had a problem and when I did feelings of shame prevented me from seeking help I was afraid of what my family and friends would think if I told them Would they be disgusted and think less of me Completing the FFBT program has been life changing for me For the first time in my life I have felt able to talk about my issues without fear of judgement in a supportive and empathetic environment - amongst people who are experiencing similar issues Martin and Anita s skills complement one another perfectly and they both provide knowledgeable honest encouraging and insightful feedback to each participant on an ongoing basis They have a caring friendly manner and share just enough of their own experiences to facilitate the development of trust and ease It is clear that they are invested in the program and genuinely want each participant to succeed They don t promise that the process will be easy but they are confident in the belief that it can be done if you re willing to keep on working at the practices and believing in the process The theory behind the practices and the practices themselves are clearly explained in the modules and feedback is always sought as you move through the program Additional one-on-one support is also available if needed and is easy to organise via the Practice Better website At first I was a little daunted at the prospect of joining this program and speaking up in front of other members in weekly Question Answer video calls However I learnt a lot from listening to the experiences of other people and felt supported being part of a group who shared my own lived experience My progress has not been linear at times things seemed to be going smoothly and then suddenly I would be confronted with difficult feelings out of the blue and find myself bingeing again But I knew to expect this and gradually I could identify small changes in my behaviour and emotional state that were proof of my progress In time binges became less and less frequent and when they did occur I came to see them as just a small bump in the road and not evidence that I was a failure and would never successfully rewire my brain I have learnt a lot about myself in the past six months how my nervous system has been busy working to protect me and how self compassion and giving myself permission to engage in joyful activities is not a self indulgence but an essential part of a healthy life Working on the practices and learning the theory upon which they are based has not only changed my relationship with food but I can honestly say has impacted many other aspects of my life Not only has my self confidence improved but I have the tools to address anxiety when it arises and now have the mental space to take on new activities joyful experiences and develop better connection to others I will no doubt still find comfort in eating certain foods on occasion but I now know that that is normal and I no longer fear those foods I don t restrict them nor find myself filled with shame disgust and regret when I do eat them By incorporating all foods into my diet and eliminating feelings of deprivation my nervous system no longer reacts with urges to binge It feels much calmer and now trusts me to make better choices around what were previously my trigger foods and when experiencing difficult feelings The FFBT program is a significant financial investment in your health and wellbeing but it is also an amazing opportunity to rewire your brain and conquer eating challenges once and for all The skills that you learn will stay with you for the rest of your life Yes the program also requires a time commitment and perseverance but as they say nothing good is ever easy and you will not be sorry you took on the challenge

Martin is the Real Deal

I have been struggling with food related challenges for more than 12 years While I ve done a tonne of inner work and healing to rebuild my relationship with food and self and have come a very long way from suffering with a 4 year binge eating disorder after competing in fitness competitions to now the occasional emotional eating over eating in my 1 hour call with Martin who showed up with honesty integrity and love helped me find the final piece to my puzzle I ve never felt so seen heard and understood around my eating challenges as I did with Martin today which I will be forever grateful for I m excited to practice what Martin shared with me and to see how I can finally put an end to my food challenges once and for all

New skills constant practice and support

I found the program really helpful with lots of new and specific techniques to change the way I view food The weekly discussion sessions gave me a focus and helped keep me on track The length of the program enabled me to practise the skills sometimes successfully and sometimes not so they started to become very familiar Martin was very affirming and never seemed shocked or bothered by all of the blips along the way Now that I ve completed the program I m integrating the skills and concepts myself I m really pleased I did the program because I learned and practised lots of new approaches and the duration and intensity of the program were important in doing this

Genuine and supportive

The one on one session with Martin was one of the most useful and worthwhile conversations I have had Martin was genuine and had great insight I was sceptical beforehand- thinking this was just going to be a sales pitch It was the complete opposite in fact Martin suggested that I didn t need to do the program with him I admit I felt a bit disappointed as I was keen to learn more however he did give me strategies on how to get off the treadmill of dieting and encouragement to think deeply about my values and how to value myself I highly recommend spending an hour talking to Martin Who generously gave his time without any expectations

Excellent support for those struggling with their relationship with food

Martin is very knowledgeable generous and honest During our Food Freedom Breakthrough call he took the time to get to know me and my specific needs and situation He made me feel comfortable and understood throughout the call He also provided me with very valuable tools to move forward If you are struggling with food I would highly recommend booking your first call with him
