Most people have the best intentions for losing weight, but they never last more than a week before they are back to their old eating habits that got them fat in the first place. Why is this? Do people in general just lack the will power necessary for weight loss? Are our lives so dependent on tasting sugar and salt that we cannot think of leading happy lives without including yummy junk food?
The solution to this problem is all in your mind. The core of all forms of spirituality is the search for an inner voice that motivates us. Most of us don’t slow down enough to be able to hear it. Taking a break during the day as a separate activity or active rethinking of problems while you exercise can not only keep you inspired, but it can also reduce your overall stress levels and the desire for trigger foods.
Here is a simple 5 step process to follow that will help stimulate the kind of inspiration necessary for weight loss success:
Weight Loss Inspiration Tips #1: Know Your Goals!
How many times have you heard this? How many more times do you need to hear this before it sinks in? If you do not have a reason to lose weight, you never will. It should be to get yourself healthy, but more often than not there are other reasons. A high school reunion? A wedding? Looking good in a swim suit? Whatever the reasons are, you must recognize them as motivating factors to reach your weight loss goals. Just knowing you have identified them can be enough to make you think twice before opening that bag of Doritos.
Weight Loss Inspiration Tips #2: Write Down Your Goals
If knowing what your weight loss goals are is the only key to success, more people would be fit and healthy. Find one of those ancient writing tools called a pencil and grab a piece of paper while you are at it. Now write down your goals for losing weight. Do not type them into your computer. Why not? Tip #3 will explain the main reason why, but besides that something magic happens when you physically write on paper. Your ideas become a solid reality. You now have proof that you want to accomplish something.
Weight Loss Inspiration Tips #3: Take Time To Remind
This is why you need to write your goals on a piece of paper. You should have your goals with you at all times, and you can not put a computer into your pocket! Well, if you count text messaging on your phone, I suppose it is possible…but you will have to shuffle through all kinds of messages to retrieve them and they will get lost. It is much more productive to see your own handwriting in front of you than computer text. You will feel more accountable for your actions and in the process you will rejuvenate your inspiration to stay on track with your weight loss program.
Weight Loss Inspiration Tips #4: Copy Success
Knowing that others have succeeded can help you visualize your own success. Stories and testimonials of those who have achieved exactly what you want will inspire you to follow in their footsteps. Weight loss has the power to change people’s lives. What actions did they take? How many times did they fall and get back up again? What weight loss supplements worked for them? All the positive results these people experienced can be your own blueprint to success.
Weight Loss Inspiration Tips #5: Look Ahead
Do not let the failures of your past dictate how your future will be. Everyone has the power to change and reinvent themselves on a daily basis. So you failed every time you ever tried to lose weight before? Big deal! What are you going to do today and tomorrow to change your track record? No one can succeed without failure anyway. Use your painful moments as a springboard for your future success instead of letting it keep you down. Just like you can follow the blueprints of other peoples success, make sure your own mistakes are not obstacles anymore. You know what to avoid, so take a new path!
I failed at losing weight for years and years before I finally found success. I spent $2,000 on Nutri-Systems only to lose 60 pounds and gain 80 right back! It wasn’t until I wrote down and reviewed my goals that I decided to try a weight loss program that worked successfully for others. Not only did I lose 70 pounds in 4 months, but I have kept it off for over 15 years now. The best part is now I help others do the same. None of that would have happened without failing first, and then using that failure as inspiration and motivation for positive change.
