Change Your Mind, Change Your Weight

Change Your Mind, Change Your Weight

We've been talking a lot about the book "What To Say When You Talk To You Self" so I want to expand on one of the ideas in the book because I feel it's so relevant to our weight loss and fitness success.

Weight loss starts in your mind. Until you change the way you think about yourself and what role food plays in your world you will always be battling weight. In the book “What to Say When You Talk to Your Self” the author talks about what to say to yourself when you sit down to eat. Here are a few:

• I am in control of myself in everyway, at alls times in every situation.
• Each time I sit down to eat, I reaffirm my determination to achieve my goal by never giving in and eating right.
• Whether eating in or eating out I really enjoy eating less.
• I never feel like I have to eat all the food in front of me. I only eat what I should.
• One way to weight loss that is easy for me is less food on my plate less food on my fork.
• When I sit down to ea,t I never let anyone else influence me or discourage me in any negative way.
• The food I eat and the goals I reach are up to me.
• I am never tempted at anytime to take one more bite than I should.
• I have set my goal and I am staying with it. I have turned meal time into achievement time.

Write these affirmations on a card and say them to yourself before each meal. Talking to yourself and affirming that you will reach your health and weight loss goals are the key to your success!
