Start with the mind, then the body

By Toby Edge


If you want to successfully lose weight you may need to do more than just eat right and exercise. Doing these things will naturally help you to reduce your level of body fat, but are you going to be able to stick with your exercise plan and diet forever?

The truth, and something that most people are simply not aware of, is that the majority of people fail with their diets eventually because they are not 'programmed' to believe that they can actually lose weight for good. It really comes down to your inner subconscious programming and whether you have this internal belief that will allow you to lose weight and then maintain that for the rest of your life.

The subconscious mind is essentially what guides us through our life. It will determine your success and failure at anything, and will be absolutely crucial in your battle with excess body fat. If you have tried and failed at diets before, and have never managed to lose significant weight for good, then the chances are that you are 'wired' the wrong way. To counter this, you need to 're-wire' your subconscious mind so that is starts to work for you and not against you.

Most people, when they start off with any weight loss goal, will start working out their body. They will exercise and look for a brand new diet. What they should be doing, however, is start by working out their mind. This really is the foundation of all weight loss success.

If you don't have a subconscious that is programmed to believe you can lose weight permanently, it simply won't happen. Only once you have done this successfully should you start to take active steps to lose weight through diet and exercise. Do so and you'll find that sticking with your diet and avoiding all of the pitfalls of dieting will become easy. You enjoy exercise, you'll feel more confident, you'll begin to feel slim before you even get there.

Surely this is the result that you are craving. No-one wants to only lose weight for a short time and then see if all rebound soon after. Everyone's ideal is to lose weight for good, and this can be more than a pipe dream if you put the right foundations in place. All of this starts with re-programming your subconscious mind so that it becomes your supporter, and not your saboteur.
