Thinking Like a Thin Person
Your struggle with weight might have begun while you were a
child, as you attempted to find out just how many cookies you
could eat at one sitting. Or it might have occurred shortly
after you arrived on a college campus for the first time. Those
late nights of studying might have led to late-night binging
sessions.
Or you might have gained weight after the birth of your first
child, and have been unable to shed the weight ever since. No
matter what the cause, weight gain is a serious matter. It can
affect your energy level, your stamina, and your overall health.
Obesity has been linked to a number of diseases, including heart
disease, cancer, and diabetes.
Once you determine that you are overweight, you have to make a
commitment to bring your weight under control. This can be a
daunting venture. You have turned overeating into a habit, and
reversing that habit can be difficult. In essence, you have
taught yourself to "think like a fat person." In order to
reverse this trend, you need to learn to think like a thin
person.
What exactly does this mean? To begin with, it means that you
must throw away your preconceived ideas about food and eating.
Eating might have become a social event for you. As a result,
you'll need to learn to be sociable without food. This is
similar to the struggle that alcoholics face when they must
learn to socialize without beer or liquor. Just because this is
hard lesson to learn doesn't mean you shouldn't try.
Thinking like a thin person also means that you need to develop
new coping strategies. You might be viewing food as your friend,
the one you turn to when things are not going your way. You may
even be eating in secret because you're ashamed at how much
you're eating. You need to realize that your public persona
needs to be the same as your private persona--and your diet
should match both.
A number of thin people exercise without even noticing it.
Activity has become a normal part of their day. The same thing
needs to be true of you. You need to exercise as much as
possible. It
should ultimately become second nature for you. It
should not be a chore--it should be a fun part of your week.
Take an inventory of your preferences. Whether you like tennis
or bowling, badminton or running, choose the activity that best
represents your style.
Then exercise diligently--preferably six times a week. This
will speed up your metabolism so that you will burn fat more
quickly. Also, you need to overcome any fear you have of
exercising. As an overweight person, you might find exercise
frustrating--and you might fear what other people will think of
you as they watch you exercising. You need to realize that
chances are no one cares about your exercise routine. Don't let
fear get in the way of your progress.
Thinking thin also means controlling portion sizes. This can be
difficult, especially when eating out. However, the key to
effective weight loss often lies in limiting your food intake,
and that begins with portion control. You might try putting your
dinner on a smaller plate in order to ensure that your portion
sizes are not too large.
You have to realize that thinking as a thin person does not
happen overnight. You have had years to develop your thought
patterns and changing them can be a challenge. The important
thing to remember is to take one day at a time and keep in mind
that your weight loss will not happen instantaneously. It will
take months of hard work to reach your ideal weight.
However, the good news is that once you get into the habit of
thinking thin, it's a trait you can carry with you for life. The
difference between a fat person and a thin person is not just a
matter of the body, but of the mind as well. Once you realize
that, you will be well on your way to accomplishing your weight
loss goals, both your immediate goals and your future goals.
