In this episode of Beyond Dieting, we talk about …THE number 1 tool for weight loss, which is “Your Thoughts” - That’s right, what prevents weight loss is often the way you are thinking
There are plenty of studies that actually show that your negative thoughts about your weight and your body and yourself directly cause your weight gain (See below for links to study)
Some Coaching 101 - Your thoughts create your feelings, moods, actions and ultimately outcomes - which means the life you are living right now
In our program we take all of this excellent work and apply it to the life of someone battling with themselves over their weight - perhaps caught in a decades-long yo-yo diet cycle of gaining-losing, gaining-losing and never feeling satisfied or like they are where they want to be
Without understanding your thoughts and how they impact your world - this state of satisfied contentment will be hard to obtain - In fact, staying in your current thoughts will most likely keep you right where you are - which is stuck in a cycle of “trying to lose weight” or “trying to get fit”
This might show up in your life like:
You get up in the morning and see a number on your bathroom scale. In this instance, you don’t like the number you see. You might start thinking, “I’m lazy,” “ I never seem to win,” “I can’t stick to anything.
However, when you learn to identify the toxic thoughts that cause suffering, you can do the work to change those thoughts into thoughts that do not create suffering. This is really good news. You can learn how to be in charge of the outcomes in your life.
And since your thoughts ultimately create the life you’re living, learning to change your thoughts will ultimately change your life.
Our upcoming group coaching program called “Beyond Dieting” is where you get to learn this vital process for detoxifying your relationship to weight loss, food and your body.
Our song this week is Everyday is a Winding Road by Sheryl Crow
