If you’ve been jumping from diet to diet for years (or decades), I bet you and I could have quite a long conversation about how diets don’t work.
NOT IN ANY LASTING, SUSTAINABLE WAY.
And if you’re anything like the 2000+ women I’ve helped who were struggling to lose weight and keep it off, you’ve likely tried a handful (or two) of these:
So many miserable methods. So much confusion. So much restriction and deprivation.
Sure, you can lose the weight… but it always comes back with a vengeance.
(Along with an extra generous helping of guilt, shame and embarrassment that the pounds are piling on. Again.)
And to make matters worse? You know you’re sabotaging your weight loss results.
You want to stop. You get so frustrated with yourself.
IF I KNOW BETTER, THEN WHY DON’T I DO BETTER?
Don’t worry, I totally get it.
(And I’ll share more of my story in a moment…)
BUT HERE IS WHAT I WANT YOU TO KNOW FIRST:
You are not alone. And you’re not a failure.
It’s just the way you’ve gone about trying to lose the weight that has set you up for failure.
Why? Because the dieting industry wants you to become a repeat customer.
The dieting industry’s dirty little secret (and by “little” I mean a booming 70 billion dollar per year business model) is this:
“Quick-fix” solutions and chronic patterns of restriction and deprivation set you up for weight loss failure every time. By design.
They know that when a woman gets desperate enough, she’s pretty much willing to do anything to lose the weight.
The dieting methods/tactics that exist right now are horrible. It’s a vicious cycle. It’s punishing.
And they simply don’t, won’t, can’t work.
Not in the long run.
Why?
Because no prepacked meal will help you learn to deal with stressful days where you end up wanting to eat your emotions or numb with booze.
No extra scoop of protein shake can do the deep work of helping you learn how to process your pain in a way that doesn’t drive you to eat spoonfuls of peanut butter straight from the tub.
If you’re exhausted from years of running in circles around the dieting-industry block, but aren’t any closer to your weight loss goals…
Chances are you probably already know it’s not just a physical transformation that needs to happen, it’s an emotional transformation at the same time.
“I’ve lost 26 lbs and have kept it off, but more than that – I am happy.”
“I spent decades trying all kinds of diets, hormone “cures” and fitness programs, and nothing seemed to work. My weight continued to yo-yo and I was on a downhill spiral, hating my body, and feeling like I had no control over the impact my thoughts and emotions had on how I dealt with food.
Working with Jen and the Powter Weight Loss Academy Team gave me my life back, they deeply understand the real issues that underlie the struggles all of us women go through and I loved digging deeper into myself with their guidance.
It’s so much more than the food, it’s about how to reconnect, learn to reset our minds to a better self and live a great life.”
– JAN S.
“I lost weight while traveling and improved my life at the same time.”
“Before joining The Powter Weight Loss Academy I couldn’t seem to keep the weight off, I would lose 10 or 15 lbs and then something would happen (usually vacation or a stressful event) and it would all come back . I thought that I just didn’t have enough “willpower” to “diet”.
In PWLA I found that weight loss can never be about the scale itself, it is not a surface problem although it manifests itself as one. Stopping the cycle is as much an emotional, relational, mental and spiritual endeavour as it is a physical one.
Working with PWLA is one of the best investments I’ve made, and you are completely capable of it too!”
– AMBER L.
DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?
You feel trapped in an exhausting yo-yo dieting cycle of losing 15 pounds, regaining 20… lose 30 pounds, regain 50….
Your emotions rise and fall with the numbers on the scale, and the nasty, mean chatter in your head only gets LOUDER. You try on your clothes only to find everything fits too tight, again.
You’re desperate for change, but don’t know how to get there.
You’re super successful in life, so this doesn’t make a lot of sense to you… how can you have a lot of discipline in so many parts of your life and not this one?
You’re carrying around pain and heaviness every day in your heart. In your mind. In your body. It’s like a dark cloud that casts a shadow on everything.
There’s no relief from constantly stressing and obsessing about food.
There’s no relief from the cycle of guilt, shame, and regret, talking yourself out of the promises you’ve made to yourself and weakening your resolve with every excuse and exception…
Intimacy with your partner? You avoid it. You’re terrified you’ll be rejected. You can’t even remember the last time you felt sexy. And on the rare occasion you do have sex, you feel gross in your own body and can’t wait for it to be over. It’s not enjoyable.
The days are long. Stress keeps building. You find yourself (again) at that moment where you cave and say “Screw it. It’s too hard,” and give in to the one little square of chocolate…
Which becomes two… Which ends up being the whole bar…
You wake up the next day and feel disgusted with yourself, and exhausted with discouragement.
You’re NOT ready to give up, but you feel like you’ve tried everything, and honestly wonder how long you can keep going before you reach your breaking point.
I GOT YOU.
If you’re sick of the rigid rules and restrictions of dieting, but determined to lose weight, good news is here!
“I was looking for a permanent solution…I found it.”
“I’ve struggled with my weight most of my life, gaining and losing the same 20-30lbs over and over. It was more than just how I looked on the outside though, my struggles were reflected on the inside too as with each weight loss, and its inevitable return, my self-esteem plummeted further. I wanted to end the cycle once and for all.
Finding Jen and The Powter Weight Loss Academy has changed my life. I was searching for a permanent, sustainable and healthy solution that didn’t require me to starve myself to lose weight and I found it.
Most importantly though I’ve learned I can trust myself. The work we’ve done together has given me the confidence to not only stop the self-sabotaging behaviors that drove my weight loss cycle but also to overcome other obstacles that were holding me back in my life.
I’ve not only lost the weight I wanted to, it’s stayed off for over a year now. I have found the freedom I was looking for.
I’ve found “me.”
– MAGGIE K.
“I wanted to find something I could do for the rest of my life.”
“It had been over 20 years since I was at a weight that I felt comfortable at. It became normal for me to feel like a stuffed sausage in my clothes. I was busy raising kids, focussing on my career and I’d just stopped taking care of myself.
Some health challenges were starting to pop up. My joints were aching, my cholesterol and blood pressure were increasing, my doctor told me I was pre-diabetic and needed to deal with things or medications would be required.
That scared me into action. I knew I needed to lose weight and wanted to find something that I could do for the rest of my life. I joined The Powter Weight Loss Academy and lost 44 lbs.
I had no idea the impact working with Jen and her team would have on my health, my life, my happiness. She’s put together a program that’s based on science and yet brings all of the emotional stuff into it that I needed support with too. For the first time in years I feel truly successful and healthy!”
– Jamie V.
It’s not too late.
Healthy, permanent weight loss is still possible for you.
You really can lose the weight and keep it off. For Good.
(And I’m about to show you how…)
IMAGINE WHAT IT’S GOING TO BE LIKE WHEN…
There is a Guaranteed Solution to Reaching – and Sustaining – Your Ideal Weight for the Rest of Your Life .
IT’S THE KEY TO BREAKING FREE FROM “DIET PRISON” ONCE AND FOR ALL.
Here it is:
Understanding WHY you do what you do,
AND getting the support and tools you need
to make choices aligned with your goals.
It makes sense, right? Uncovering your emotional triggers – what drives you to numb, soothe, or reward with food – is what will make or break your weight loss journey.
Because it doesn’t matter how extreme or all-in your weight loss tactic is, if you don’t address the root issues for why you do what you do, you won’t be able to sustain your results.
By now you already know weight loss is about so much more than just the food.
It’s about the emotional resilience to handle life storms, the emotional tsunamis where you give yourself permission to indulge. You justify and rationalize and say to yourself “Next Monday…I’ll get back on it…”
Only to have another Monday, another month, and another year pass you by.
THE TRUTH IS:
To get to where you want to go,
you must be willing to leave where you are.
Yes, this is deep work.
But you never have to go it alone again.
I’ll help you every step of the way.
“I broke the cycle of yo-yo dieting. I feel free.”
“For me, the choice to lose weight has always included restrictive and unsustainable diets. I was living the definition of insanity, trying the same things over and over even though they didn’t work.
Dieting has been a constant distraction in my life, one that has also created a wealth of grief, shame, anxiety and negative self-talk. Working with Jen and the Powter Weight Loss Academy Team has shown me that the only way to lose weight successfully is to fuel my body the same way I’d maintain the weight loss.
Their guidance, along with the tools, routines and strategies that they provide have given me what I needed to not just lose weight but to keep it off for the longest I’ve ever managed previously.”
– MICHELLE B.
“I don’t have to be on a diet for the rest of my life – I can just be normal!”
“The thing I wanted most was to get healthy so I could be there with my kids and, hopefully, grandkids. I’ve spent over half my life struggling with my weight and I was tired of failing. I’d tried going Keto but living off of Keto food just wasn’t sustainable for me.
The Powter Weight Loss Academy gave me so much more than just some cookie-cutter weight loss method. They helped me truly understand my body, proper nutrition, and identify what was going on at that deeper emotional level.
I got the guidance and support I needed to break through that negative self-sabotaging cycle which has allowed me to lose 28 lbs to date.”
– MELISSA H.
Achieve your weight loss goals and in a sustainable, healthy way in the Powter Weight Loss Academy, led by Weight Loss and Mindset Expert: Jennifer Powter, MSc., CEP
If you’re just getting to know me…
And while it matters that you know that I have a Master’s degree in science, I’m a personal trainer, I’m a triple certified coach and emotional intelligence practitioner, a two-time best-selling author (I’ve got two books that I’ve written in the weight loss industry), I’ve run 12 marathons and dozens of half-marathons, completed Ironman Canada twice, and I’m also a certified exercise physiologist…
Probably the biggest thing that is such an asset for me in the work I do is that I’ve been overweight…
In my twenties I was fit, strong, athletic. I ran half-marathons and marathons, I liked how I looked and like most women I always thought I needed to lose 5-10 lbs but never really worried about my weight.
But as I neared my thirties, life got more complicated. I got married and had kids… and I began this long, slow, steady, falling away from being on my own priority list.
I was taking care of everybody else first, and consistently ended up with no energy left to take care of myself.
Pretty soon, I was living in a body that was 40 pounds overweight on my 5’6 frame and I was down to one pair of stretchy lululemon pants that I called my “fat pants.”
Every morning when I would wake up, my hands would travel around my body feeling and squeezing the soft, flabby fat on my tummy and thighs… and before I would ever take my first step out of bed I was engaged in intense shame and self-loathing.
I’d make these promises to myself about what I wouldn’t eat or drink…
But the days would be hard. And the hard days would pile on top of each other. And I’d finally say “Screw it. I just don’t care.”
But I did care.
I could not stand what it felt like to go through my day feeling so awful in my body. I was living as a fragmented version of myself.
I avoided pictures. There are hardly any pictures of me with my kids for many, many years.
All sorts of health problems started to crop up… and I realized that if I wanted to create change I had to do it differently.
And I also realized that there was a lot going on with me emotionally that I didn’t want to admit to myself.
THE TRUTH IS, I WAS SO LONELY IN MY MARRIAGE.
I didn’t know how to find connection in it. So I sought companionship and comfort from my nightly handful of chocolate chips and glass of red wine.
Except, it usually wasn’t just one glass. It was more like two glasses. And it wasn’t just one handful of chocolate chips, it was more like three.
After tolerating feeling this way for a long time, I hit a very low moment in my life.
That’s when I finally made the decision to change.
FAST FORWARD…
I lost over 40+ pounds 12 years ago, and I’ve not regained a pound since. And I did it all while having complete food freedom.
And by “complete food freedom” I don’t mean that I could eat whatever I wanted whenever I wanted… but that I lost the weight for good by changing the relationship I had with food. I thought about food differently and stopped using it as an emotional crutch.
This is life-changing FREEDOM I don’t want to keep to myself.
I’ve also helped thousands of women learn how to create their own incredible weight loss transformation without doing anything weird to achieve sustained weight loss.
I’m so grateful for my journey now in my work because:
All the knowledge in the world can’t replace the experience of only having one pair of pants to slip on.
From my own experience, and after helping thousands of women achieve healthy, permanent weight loss, here’s what I know:
It’s about so much more than just the food.
Don’t just take my word for it– enjoy what some of my happy clients have to say about their experiences:
“I found a sane way to lose weight.”
Before joining The Powter Weight Loss academy I was thinking about food and my weight 24/7. I was constantly starting a new diet on Monday only to fizzle out by Friday. I knew what I needed to do but I just couldn’t do it – I’d always give up.
Since starting, I’ve shed over 50lbs, regained my energy, and said goodbye to yo-yo dieting and self-punishment.
But the real victory? Gaining back my confidence, feeling happy, and no longer letting food control me. I understand my emotional needs now, and that’s been the most empowering part of this journey.
– KELSEY P.
“I no longer self-sabotage.”
“I had spent so many years feeling out of control and consumed by dieting. I was at a point in my life where I wanted to think about something other than the number on the scale.
What I learned at the Powter Weight Loss Academy helped me lose 56 lbs and I’m now ready to live in weight maintenance. I feel so at peace with food, my body, my weight, and the scale.
I get to enjoy my life because I no longer self-sabotage. I feel good!”

Concerned about how your partner will respond to this investment?
I totally understand. Let’s not tip-toe around this hesitation. I’m all about real, direct talk.
Read this candid email from a client’s husband who was “skeptical at best” about the Powter Weight Loss Academy… then share it with your partner!
Hello Jennifer!
I’m Andy, Becky’s husband and I wanted to just take a short moment to send you a personal note.
Becky has struggled with issues all her life, both personal and intrapersonal that I as her husband have been powerless to help her with (never heard this story before I bet..lol).
I was skeptical at best when she mentioned the journey she was going to take with you, the cost involved, etc.
Reason being is that over the course of our almost 15 year marriage she has spent a small fortune on every exercise program, DVD, book and snake oil available to help her lose weight and feel good about herself.
Weight Watchers was her “go back to” when the latest offering fell by the wayside, and it would help with the weight loss, but only for a while. Little did she or I know that it was the thing behind the thing (thanks for that by the way, I repeat it so much I should have a string you can pull out of my back lol)
Anyway, her journey toward happiness, self-discovery, ability to kick her mother’s boatload of toxic negativity to the curb and turn THAT into sympathy and understanding (Houdini level achievement), AND lose the weight she wanted, AND stand stronger in the face of adversity, AND improve our relationship…
well I just gotta ask…
You runnin for office anytime soon?
You’d get my vote, cuz you’d be the only politician I ever liked. 🙂
Sincerely though, from the bottom of my heart, thank you so much. My girl is so much happier than she has ever been, and by extension, so am I, and there’s no price you can put on that. You’re worth every penny.
Have a great day!
Andy

One Last Note Before You Go…
My goal is not for women to be skinny and hold less space in the world, it is for women to be the right weight for themselves and hold MORE space in the world.
I can well remember how miserable it felt to have one pair of “fat pants” and how much I hated getting dressed in the morning, but what I remember most is the pain of living my life feeling “less than.”
I was hiding in plain sight. (Perhaps you relate.)
And, while I now truly love shopping my closet, or knowing that whatever I’m going to wear is going to look amazing because I’m at a weight that feels good for me today…
What I love most is the self-confidence that I live my life with every day – and knowing that I am enough.
That’s what going on a weight loss transformation journey is all about.
Today, I run The Powter Weight Loss Academy helping women who feel just like I once did: lost, out of control, scared, alone and wondering if they’ll ever be able to look in the mirror and like what they see.
Every day they are finding to their happy surprise that they can, they do.
They’ve stopped hiding and started showing up for themselves.
And I want you to remember is this:
If they can do it, so can you.
Your courage to keep seeking a solution to be a healthier, stronger version of you is beautiful.
And I’m here to help you every step of the way.
