One of the most important parts of losing any weight is your own vision… can you see yourself at the weight you desire?
You literally can’t lose weight if you see yourself overweight, or more importantly, not being able to lose weight… your mind won’t let you. This is one reason so many struggle with weight loss… and keeping it off.
This is called psychological reversal. You say you want something, but your inner mind says just the opposite. You say you want to lose weight, but your mind says “it’s too hard”, “I can’t do that”, “never been able to do it, why now” or any other belief you’ve let settle in to your mind the past.
These beliefs in one way or another you’ve ‘accepted’ at some time in the past. You see, your subconscious mind accepts anything you pass to it. It doesn’t judge, analyze, reason, filter… nothing, it just accepts. If you’ve accepted in the past that it’s too difficult to lose weight (for any reason), then almost any attempt to lose weight will fail unless you replace that negative belief.
Once you replace any old beliefs about weight loss, you can “picture” yourself at your ideal weight. And now, thanks to high tech, you can even do it right on your computer! Just visit http://www.fitfoto.com and you can see your before and after pictures in almost real time! Brilliant idea. Just upload a current picture of yourself and the http://www.fitfoto.com software will create a picture of what you you’ll look like at your ideal weight (or a close resemblance). And by the way, it’s free.
Keep the photo in a place where you can see it often and imagine yourself and how good you feel, the things you’ll be doing and all the good feelings associated with your “new you”.
You CAN do it!
