By Joe Blaschke Let's face it losing weight is no easy task. First, you must learn that your body and mind are one. Skills and behaviours are required for you to succeed in your weight loss goals. Improving your thinking from negative to positive is an ability that can be developed through repetition. Responding to difficulties and challenges in a positive way is something you learn. A positive attitude is the key to weight-loss success. Mind can triumph over fat. The first step in losing weight is the acknowledgement that "you can do it." This attitude is a must in your successful weight loss. Your mental attitude can change your life. Your mind comprehends habits through repetition. The more you think or do something over and over again, the more they shape your personality and style, good or bad. Therefore, if you are serious about losing weight and changing your body, you have to start with changing your mind. Visualize yourself with the body you want. When you have fixed an image of yourself in your mind, let it be your incentive for changing your lifestyle; exercising and good eating habits. Define how you want to improve your body. Don't just say "I want to look better." Put it into words and solid goals like "I'm size 16 and I want to be a size 10." This is concrete, and your mind can comprehend. Be aware of your daily physical activities and your eating patterns. Most people eat what they want whenever they want and never take in consideration what foods work for or against their bodies. Most of us really believe we eat far less than we actually do. The same goes for exercise. Most of us probably believe we get plenty of exercise in a day, walking a block from the bus stop to the office, going up a flight of stairs, or doing a bit of house cleaning. But these aren't enough to burn the extra pounds. One of the best ways to keep track of your daily food intake and your daily exercises is by keeping a journal. Many times our behaviours come so automatically that we don't even realize the extra foods and calories we eat. We grab a bag of chips in the evening while watching TV or a couple of cookies working at the computer, and then we wonder why we don't lose any weight. By writing a journal, you will be able to determine what you're doing right from wrong and it will be much easier for you to take control of your bad eating habits and your lack of daily exercise. Be as honest as you can and the information will be the most helpful tool for your success in losing weight. Keep your weight loss goals small and achievable. Start slowly and choose a realistic plan that you can live with. There are many sensible eating plans that work and that are easy to follow. Only you can train yourself to begin new eating habits and stick with them. Use a common sense approach by selecting a plan that is low in fats and sugar. Slowly change your eating habits by replacing fat foods with natural and healthy foods. Don't forget, your mind can be trained and your habits can be changed. Use the same approach for an exercise program. Start by setting small goals and meet them, then set more difficult goals. Always acknowledge your progress even if it's small. Although you might set a goal to lose an inch off your waist but you lose only a half an inch, don't say you failed. Be positive and do not condition yourself to accept failure or never even consider failure. Unless you are able to pattern your subconscious into accepting a healthy lifestyle, you will never change your old lifestyle. How can you do that? By exercising your mind just as you would your body!
