1. THIS time will be different. This time it is really going to work.
2. I can stick to eating celery and cabbage for 1 month, no problem!
3. I don’t need to exercise, I’ll just eat less.
4. I’m not an emotional eater, I just love food.
5. I’m weak, I have no will power
6. I wouldn’t have all of these problems if I wasn’t overweight.
7. I’m a failure because I can’t keep this weight off.
8. I’m not good enough just the way I am.
9. My weight has nothing to do with my past, my emotions or my thinking
10. I’ve “lost” 10 pounds. Like you put it somewhere and can’t remember where. Maybe this is why it keeps finding you again!

• Does any of this sound familiar? If any of these rings true for you we need to talk.

• If you read some of these and think, “well yeah, but I really don’t have any willpower”, we really need to talk!

So much of weight loss is about what is going on for you emotionally. Experience should tell you that it is not just about diet or even diet and exercise. For permanent change you must also look at what is going on inside.

I’ve said it once and I will say it a million times…what you think affects the way youfeel and this influences your behaviour. Diets go straight for the behaviour but do nothing to help with the stuff that is creating that behaviour in the first place.

It is the space between your ears that is holding you back. When you make the decision to look at your thoughts and feelings you will realize the success you have been longing for. Reclaim your own power.

When you are tired of dieting and lying to yourself it will be time for the journey to emotionally mastering your weight.
