Key to Weight Loss: Face Your Discomfort


Listen Later

If you have recently made drastic or even minor changes to your eating habits, you might be experiencing various levels of discomfort that could send you rebounding back to your old, unhealthy ways. While some of the discomforts could be physical, some could also be mental or emotional. If you want to lose weight successfully, then understanding and learning to live with various sources of discomfort is necessary.

Dealing With Physical Discomfort

If you change your diet to include more healthy foods and less of the fatty, sugary, salty choices that caused your weight gain, then it can take time for your system to adjust to this new way of eating.

What About Mental and Emotional Discomfort

There are other reasons, though, why you may feel bad or uncomfortable when you try to make major changes to your way of eating. When you eliminate foods, especially those high in sugar, salt, and fat, you are depriving your brain of dopamine, which is that “happy or feel good” neurotransmitter that's released when you eat foods high in these substances.

Keeping your mind on the healthy, bright, vibrant vision of your future self will give you the strength you need to keep going!
