- Licensed clinicians
- Workbooks & videos included
When the scale moves — but the mindset doesn’t
Awareness comes from structured education that ties together the behavioral outcomes caused by self-sabotaging and self-defeating thinking. You’re not broken — you just haven’t had the right tools… until now.
Lose, regain, repeat
You’ve cycled through weight loss and regain more times than you can count — and it’s exhausting.
Stinkin’ thinkin’
Negative thought patterns quietly sabotage your progress long after surgery or a diet “works.”
Stress & emotional eating
Food still feels like comfort when life gets heavy — and willpower alone never seems enough.
Considering revision surgery
Some members come to Strive while exploring bariatric revision — looking for the missing piece first.
Unwanted behaviors return
Without daily skills to correct negative thinking habits, old patterns creep back in.
Doing it alone
Friends and family mean well, but they don’t understand what this journey really takes.
Nutrition and psychology — together
Through active participation in Strive BLE, you’ll learn the daily skills needed to correct negative thinking habits that drive unwanted behaviors and weight regain.
See the connection
Immersive, structured education ties together the direct behavioral outcomes caused by self-sabotaging thinking — so patterns finally make sense.
Practice what works
Learn practical CBT tools to replace stinkin’ thinkin’ with successful thinking habits you can use every single day.
Track real progress
Complete digital daily points logs and a weekly mindful eating food log to measure your ongoing progress — not just the number on the scale.
7 sessions that enlighten and empower
Each session builds on the last — from understanding why weight loss hasn’t stuck, to designing your personal success blueprint.

Hear directly from Nancy and Dawn about the program and why it was created.
Strive graduates consistently tell us this was the game-changer they needed to be successful. And if they had taken Strive before their initial weight loss surgery, they would not have required a revision.
