The Don’t Diet Mind-Body Weight Loss Course
Learn how to take a kind, sane, sustainable approach to permanent weight loss without the crazy rules and restrictions of traditional dieting.
Our next group starts in June!
Discover how to release feelings of shame, confusion, and struggle related to your food and body, and move towards your weight loss goals with a sense of ease and clarity.
Your lack of results is not due to a lack of effort on your part.
You’ve tried all of the methods to lose weight.
You’ve been on ALL the diets.
You’ve experimented with paleo, keto and vegan diets.
You’ve attempted Weight Watchers, fasting and Whole30.
You’ve tracked your macros, counted your calories, and you might even consider holding your breath while standing on your head if it would actually help you to reach your weight loss goals.
Despite all this effort, still no results! What gives?
You’re smart, successful and determined.
So you double down, pushing harder, trying more, and bullying yourself towards the finish line.
But it doesn’t work.
It never works … because it can’t work.
Believe me, I’ve been there, I know, and I completely understand.
I constantly struggled with the same 25 pounds. No matter what I did, I never felt comfortable in my body and always felt like I was working against myself. I was forever on a diet and yet slowly continued to gain weight! What’s the deal with that?
What you
really want...
Is to have a sense of ease with your food and your body.
You want to FEEL good.
You want to trust yourself.
You want to have your own back.
You want to stop striving for perfection.
You want to feel like you don’t have to try so hard and push all of the time.
You may wonder, “Is it even possible to lose weight without shame, guilt, restriction, and deprivation?”
LOSING WEIGHT WITH THE DON’T DIET IS ABOUT LEARNING HOW TO FEED + NOURISH YOUR MIND, BODY, AND LIFE!.

It’s truly my privilege to be your guide through The Don’t Diet Weight Loss Course.
Beyond the kitchen, this work is my passion. I’ve taken everything I’ve learned from my professional training in integrative nutrition, eating psychology, and life coaching, coupled with insights gained from my own weight loss journey. I’ve distilled this wealth of knowledge into powerful, transformative tools and practices that have empowered both myself and my clients to achieve their health and weight loss goals WITHOUT DIETING.
I created TDD Weight Loss Course because it’s exactly what I needed when I was in the throes of my struggles with weight and body. By taking a mind–body approach to weight loss, I slowly learned how to shift out of my diet mentality (which focuses on restriction, deprivation, perfectionism, and disconnection from my body) and into a place of health, nourishment, pleasure, and connection.
If you are ready to love your body, enjoy your food and reach your natural weight WITHOUT DIETING, The Don’t Diet Weight Loss Course is for you.
As a Certified Health, Life and Weight Loss Coach – and someone who has struggled with weight myself, I understand how you feel right now. I’m familiar with the feelings of being stuck, anxious, discouraged, and overwhelmed by food, body, and weight. That’s exactly why I’m so deeply committed and passionate about this transformative work.
It would be my honor to help coach and guide you into creating a weight loss journey that aligns with and supports your unique needs, preferences, body, and lifestyle.
IF YOU’RE TIRED OF SELF-CRITICISM, EAGER FOR CHANGE, AND OPEN TO NEW APPROACHES, THE DON’T DIET WEIGHT LOSS COURSE IS FOR YOU.
I look forward to personally meeting you inside the course!
Sending lots of love
& deliciousness,
Dani

Testimonials
Alexandra J.
Dani brings such presence and wisdom to each conversation! Talking with her is like being with an older, cooler sister who has total compassion for your heart and experience.
Connie N.
The Don’t Diet course is AMAZING! Dani’s work is SO inspiring and thought-provoking. Not only for working towards your weight and health goals but also for learning about yourself, what motivates you and demotivates you, and how to be kinder to yourself.
Lisa W.
I’ve never experienced such a calmness around food and such a connection with my body and emotions prior to this course. The Don’t Diet approach is the best recipe I have ever experienced – a good balance of all the right ingredients!
Jude G.
Your course was perfectly balanced and executed. Thank you for every detailed and practical aspect of your program, and also your warmth, humor and transparency.
Christina H.
Uncomplicated, simple, real and down to earth, this is essentially Dani Spies in a nutshell. Her approach towards healthy eating and weight loss is totally different from anything I’ve ever tried before. She taught me to how to learn more about myself so I could understand my habits with food (and life). That’s where real change begins!
Tina M.
I can’t tell you how wonderful it is to be part of such a wonderful group, I feel so blessed to have found you. What I have really learned during these past few months is how I use food to cope with my emotions. I am learning more about myself and practicing finding release from my emotions without turning to food. You are an inspiration and have made a difference in my life.
Karen P.
I came to Dani with the working out part down, my problem was the whole eating thing. I wanted to stop dieting and start eating to live (not living to eat). I understood calories but this was beyond basic math, I needed to understand why I overeat when I do. Dani came into my life helped me down the sometimes complicated emotional path of healing what is behind the bad eating habits. I can’t say enough about her consummate professionalism, extensive knowledge, and most importantly, empathy.
Janet M.
Working with Dani was a fantastic experience for me. She wasted no time in our sessions and allowed me to dump everything, and then we sorted through together. Things that I refused to look at alone about me and my lifestyle; I could face with the help of my coach. It felt like dismantling a bomb, these things have no power when they are taken apart. It’s amazing to learn how a few simple tools can change my whole experience.
Hannah A.
Dani has helped me to genuinely embrace and love myself more deeply. I am less afraid to face my own thoughts, fears and patterns around eating and exercise. Through her openness and understanding, I was able to create a space for me to be less hard on myself and my body.
Frequently Asked Questions
I will cover the basics of eating well (I even have a bonus section on hormones and hunger), but it’s not like the diets you’re used to — I won’t tell you what you can or can’t eat. Instead of restricting you, I’ll be guiding you to create an eating game plan that works for YOU, made by YOU.

If you’re not interested in self-discovery and personal growth, if you’re looking for a quick fix or magic pill, or if you want specific meal plans, this program is not for you.
LOL. There is a bonus section on exercise, but I always encourage my clients to separate their exercise goals from their weight loss goals.
I want you to be re-inspired about your weight loss journey! Let’s get excited about your body, your life, and your relationship with food.
Consider this: if you continue with the same strategies you’ve been using, you’ll likely continue seeing the same results.
