The weight loss mindset |
Weight loss programs work for
some people, and for others they don’t. Some manage to lose weight with a diet
or a controlled regime over their eating habits, and others don’t. So, the
problem is not really the diet, the
problem is in your mind.
What do you expect from your weight
loss plan? Do you start a diet
while you remember all the articles you read about why weight loss diets don’t work? Do you start the diet thinking: “Oh well, it won’t work, because diets don’t work
anyway”? Do you start exercising thinking “it won’t work because I won’t lose weight anyway, no matter how hard
I exercise”?
If you start out or continue with this kind of mindset, you are sure not to lose
your weight. You are telling
yourself that you are not going to make it. This works like aself-fulfilling prophecy, because you will not
take your diet plan or your exercise
program serious. If you don’t believe in what you are doing you will not give
it your full attention, not put all your effort into it, not focus on your goal
…, and eventually fail. Eating less and exercising more will work you, if you
want it to work for you and if you consequently make it work for you.
