I reached the point in my life where I'm sad when I hear women and men talk about weight loss. Not because I think someone has to lose weight. Instead, I think a lot of people to change their lives, health, and sense of self-esteem if they started taking care of themselves and their bodies taken into account in weight loss .
I'm sad because almost everyone that I hear about weight loss hurts.
I know, bold statement. But sometimes you have to shout loudly to be heard. And I think what I'm saying is make noise.
Imagine, he was constantly listening to people talk about their deep desire and effort to save money. Then he heard that spending, refusing to open their bank statements and hold them, and have often heard about the opening of high credit card interest rates.
Would not you not want to shake them and scream - STOP?
Well, that's how I feel about diets, and people of course take commonly accepted when they want to lose weight. The old approach not only works, but also the reality that contributes to the problem.
Here are 5 myths about weight loss that I hear too often.
Not only are FALSE (yes, I cry - but with love, of course :), but are harmful to your overall goals. I hope these help to rethink how you or your loved ones are approaching weight loss and health so that you can really get what they are missing, not just more of the same.
One needs to lose weight and then I'll be happy
This belief is not only false, it is the opposite. Yes, you'll be happy when you lose weight, I understand. It does not work in that order. It is backwards.
The truth is that you begin to heal your relationship with food and maintain permanent weight loss when you are truly happy. When you focus on your happiness, above all, losing weight is no longer tedious and difficult - the feel of the road food. You'll find that your desire to eat emotionally decreases when your life is balanced and deeply satisfied. You need to focus on being happy in the first place, and let the weight loss is an effect of this, and not the reverse.
2 just try harder and then I'll lose weight and solve this problem
Again, this belief is wrong and backwards. Trying too hard (what I call "efforting"), will not help you maintain long-term healthy weight. You can lose weight in a short period of time this way, but never, never lasts. this leads to the yo-yo dieting.
The truth is to allow, rather than force, is a more powerful force when it comes to permanent weight loss long term.
Allow yourself to reconnect the signals of hunger and fullness of your body. Let yourself be aware of what your body is craving and eat what you want and why. Allow yourself to know their habits, good and bad, so you can make a conscious choice about how to eat healthier in the future.
Force the process will lead to combustion and exhaustion. That is why these diets do not last really extreme. Very few of us can have that kind of effort required for long. It's like swimming upstream. You do not have to push so hard. Relax in this process and allow you to begin connecting with your own wisdom. If you do this, you will have the energy and vision to make it a lifestyle and not just a short-term effort.
3 Somewhere someone has a plan or a book that has the answer I have to lose weight
Diet books and nutrition are big. They also shoveled and for each book you said one thing, there are 10 who will tell you otherwise. This leads to confusion and chaos, if you are looking for outside answers you seek.
You can use the wisdom you're outside guide, but the truth is that only you have the answer you seek. I promise you it's true.
Only you know the exact recipe that will give you the balance of your mind, body and soul searching at this moment in time. Many changes as you change, you will always be the only person who will ever know what you need.
Pay attention to your needs, hunger signals from your body, and your health is vital for you to read the signals and interpret the meaning derived from their nutritional needs. You're walking around the "Diet Solution" perfect right now, so skip the trip to Barnes and Noble and start paying attention to your thoughts, your beliefs, your body and your hunger.
4 I can do on my own (DIY) - ask for help means I'm weak
How many times have you tried to lose weight only to gain it back?
How much time, money and effort you have invested in your efforts to get healthy and stay healthy?
The truth is I do not think we're supposed to do it alone. I think we are tribal beings, community and relationship. I think it's only in our makeup, probably in our DNA (just a guess).
I find when people try to do things in isolation, limited power. When people do things in a group, get the exponential power of the number of people in the group are. It is a "two minds are better than one" type of effect.
Asking for help is not weak, he is strong. You choose the power of the community on the isolation of less powerful force. It's just smart.
Being vulnerable in our society is not easy, I understand. We live in a world that relies on a lot of crappy beliefs and broken and "Asking for help is weak" is an example of one of these mindsets broken.
Asking for help is brave, intelligent, and ultimately that will help you reach your goal faster.
5 Weight loss is one thing at a time.
It's not one thing and doing. Anyone who believes that is only going to lose weight and then all "fixed" itself is wrong.
It's like believing that if you just clean your house from top to bottom "this time", then you will live forever in a pristine place and nothing will ever do it again.
While it would be glorious, everyone cleaning your house knows it is not true.
That is why it is a clean and tidy person is a way of life rather than an event. It's the same with weight loss. It is not an event. This is a way of life. It's about living healthy and connected to what works for you. It is the management of the balance, which is never a fixed point. It's a commitment, at times, the level of every hour of every day. That's what I think it is to reconnect with yourself.
