Being more in tune with your body will help you with losing weight.

Your body would really prefer not to be sick and overweight. But often we impose our will on it.

We need to learn to work with the body, not against it.

Successfully losing weight and keeping it off, isn't about following some crazy, strict list of rules. It's definitely not about depriving yourself of food. It's about listening to what your body and mind are telling you.

Your body knows how to survive if given a chance

This fact will probably be difficult to accept because diet commercials and so-called experts keep telling you differently. But the truth is your body knows exactly what it needs to be healthy. You just have to learn to listen to its signals, not your cravings.

If you want to lose weight, listen to your body

When you learn to listen to your body, you've got to ignore the food signals and cravings that come from your mind. Suppress those emotional eating signals that tell you to eat so you'll feel better. You need to put this little rational thought buffer between the idea and the action. Just enough time to think about what you're about to do.

Learn to recognize the difference between physical hunger and emotional hunger. Don't listen to the cravings of your emotional brain, listen to your physical body.

Final thoughts

Learning to listen to your body means sharpening your intuition for your physical needs rather than your mental or emotional ones. 

It means listening to other signals and paying attention to the parts of your body that know best what you really need to be healthy. 

You can enhance your intuition by listening for the right signals about what you're really hungry for.
