overwhelming, the tendency is to feel frustrated, and judge
yourself too harshly. Use the tips to create more opportunity to
be aware of yourself and your needs. By having them, you will be
more aware of the choices that you make and more in control of
your own happiness.
1. BE CONSCIOUS. Become aware of what choices you are making in
terms of your eating. Pay close attention to what and how much
you are eating in addition to the events, people and patterns
surrounding those choices. You might consider writing down what
you eat in a daily journal. When you recognize patterns, you are
in a better position to make small changes as necessary instead
of getting on the scale one day and seeing a 10 pound gain.
2. EMBRACE THE PRESENT. Wherever you are in your journey to
improve your health, recognize and acknowledge that place.
Appreciate your successes and become aware of the places where
you need support. Love you body regardless of its shape or size.
Our feelings are invisible yet they are very powerful. If you
harbor resentment toward your body, your thoughts will move you
to sabotage your efforts. Take it slowly and appreciate the
process. Learn how to make it fun and take a small step at a
time.
3. ACT NOW. Never procrastinate. Every moment counts. Make your
decisions and stick by them. If you decide that you are going to
go the gym, schedule it and make sure that you do it or decide
upon a reasonable substitute. Get it done now or as soon as
possible. Once you make a decision, follow through and take
action. Action creates momentum. When you notice that you are
stuck, don't beat yourself up, ask for help! Just keep on
moving.
4. EMBRACE FEEDBACK. Recognize that the scale is just one form
of feedback and it's not always accurate. You know if you've
been sticking to your plan. Learn how to take the grains of
truth from every situation and toss out the rest. Don't be your
own
worst enemy and give up! Be willing to be flexible in your
approach and eager to embrace new learnings. Challenge yourself
to learn from every situation. If you realize that eating
Chinese Food the night before a weigh in causes you to bloat and
affects your weigh in the next day, don't do it. Make a change.
Try something different next time. Focus on the mountain of
possibilities rather than the restrictions. 5. USE ROLE MODELS.
Speed up your success by listening to those who have blazed a
trail before you. Don't re-invent the wheel. Seek to find
someone who can guide you to cultivate the health habits you
seek. Make certain that they have already accomplished what you
desire. Figure out what you really want and then ask for help to
get it. Make sure that you are both in alignment as far as what
drives them to want to stay on program. If it is fear that
motivates them and you are driven to move toward your ideal,
then you might want to realize that something that they are
doing compels them through fear. You might not want this as part
of your model and you might choose to make changes in this area
and find someone who is more in line with your beliefs and
motivations.
6. VISUALIZE YOUR DREAM. Take a few moments each day and
allocate them as quiet time reserved just for dreaming and
planning the new you. You can enjoy doing this while soaking in
the bathtub, relaxing in your backyard, sitting in your favorite
chair, strength training at the gym, anywhere that you feel
relief from daily pressures can be the perfect place to focus on
your dreams and goals. Engage as many senses as possible to
create a powerful memory and anchor for your continued success.
Our subconscious works on the basis of the images that we create
in our minds, the more compelling the vision the more our brain
will attract us to the conditions that will make its
manifestation possible.
7. ACKNOWLEDGE SOMEONE TODAY and tell them how much they mean to
you. Say "Thank you." Gratitude is the highest energy, when you
are in a space of gratitude everything is possible. In that
space, you attract more of what you desire and people will love
to be around you. Realize that everyone wants to be appreciated.
Join a community of people who are on the same journey as you.
There will be a great deal of camaraderie and support in an
environment that is warm and non judgmental. Acknowledge your
appreciation of this by sharing your gratitude with your support
buddies. People love to help others when they know that their
efforts are appreciated.
8. SET A GOAL to learn something new every day. How many ways
can you think of to add more value to your life by learning?
It's calorie and carb free and oh so yummy. Take a course, learn
how to set up a blog, see a movie, go for a hike, read a book,
teach a class, sample a new recipe, try a new workout. What's
your pleasure? Go for it. It's food for the soul.
9. SPEND TIME NURTURING YOURSELF, take a bubble bath, sew,
paint, dance, write in a journal, read a book, go shopping, hug
a tree. Enjoy being with yourself. Look at time spent alone as
an opportunity not a challenge. You are wonderful. Be open to
exploring all your gifts.
10. ALWAYS ADMIT TO MISTAKES. Maintain your integrity and be
truthful, with and about yourself, and your abilities. When you
slide and fall into patterns of overeating, forgive yourself,
let go and move on. By doing so, you will inevitably like
yourself more, relieve yourself of undue guilt and get back in
the swing of things.
