Take the Struggle Out of Weight Loss Goals with Be Do Have
Whatever goals your client decides, personal or professional there is sometimes an aside "and I could really have a goal to loose weight, but it's such a struggle". And it is!
You'll maybe hear about more failed goals to lose weight and keep it off than any other goals that haven't succeeded.
To increase their chances of succeeding, your first focus as a coach is to support them to BEcome a person who is willing to find better ways of handling stress or boredom instead of comfort eating and/or procrastinating about exercise. Or they could Be someone who is willing to give up things, at least in the short term, that might sabotage their weight loss. (In my own case this is chocolate and cheese😀.)
In other words, to lose weight the client needs to Be someone who can develop strategies to Do what it takes. This may include things like saying No to that second piece of cake or a bad snack habit and Yes to more exercise so they can the Have their desired goal of the slim fit body!

Disclaimer and Warning.
Some people who want to lose weight really don't need to. In fact they could even be suffering from an eating disorder. If you suspect this is the case for your client remember eating disorders are a therapy issue and should be referred on to a qualified therapist.

A Success Story Using BE DO HAVE for Weight Loss Goals
My client, let's call her Jane, wanted to lose weight but she was finding it hard to resist the habit of buying junk food to eat on the way home from work. So I explained to her she had to Become someone who was strong enough to resist the temptation (Do), so she could reach (Have) the goal of losing weight.
We knew she needed coaching to support her to be accountable and help break this self sabotaging habit. I asked her if it would help if, when she got home from work each day, she would be willing to text me to say whether she had made it the journey without stopping for her junk food "fix". She agreed to give it a try.
Because Jane became accountable to me for reporting her behaviour, the Be Be and Do (someone who would resist temptation and walk on by the shop), she soon broke the habit which then contributed significantly to reaching her weight loss goal.
