Reasons For Losing Weight
How bad do you want to be thin? Have you got the necessary willpower to stick to your diet and reach your weight loss goals? You may think just shedding those extra pounds would be satisfying and provide enough willpower. But, of course, it would be nice not to avoid seeing your reflection in shop windows and to receive admiring glances as you walk down the street.
You need to remember that if you want to lose weight for the wrong reasons, there's a strong chance that either your weight loss efforts will fail or that you will put the weight back on once you stop dieting. If you want to lose weight for you, you are much more likely to be pleased with the results! It's all about willpower and if you want something badly enough, you will have the power to make it happen.
3 Bad reasons for wanting to lose weight:
- To make a bad relationship good
- To make someone proud of you
- To make someone like you
3 Good reasons for wanting to lose weight:
- To get fit
- To avoid health problems
- To improve your self confidence
Try these positive attitude exercises:
- See yourself spending time with those who support you - Make your picture as attractive as you'd wish it to be in real life. Let your thoughts gravitate towards all the things that inspire and motivate you.
- Hear yourself speaking encouraging words to yourself and hear the positive things that others are saying to you now that you have achieved your goal.
- Decide what it is that you really want. For example, if you want to lose weight, think of what it is that you really want, instead of what you don't want, being overweight. Now say this in a positive way for example, 'I am fit, energetic and slim'.
- See yourself as this new you and visualise yourself doing all the things that you would most want to do. Who else is in the picture? What are you wearing? Perhaps those jeans that you haven't been able to fit into for over a year?
