Work your mind for weight loss

We at Mind Body Weight Loss have always believed that if you work deal with your mind first you will not lose weight quicker but you will also keep the weight off. Arnold Schwarzenegger is so right with his quote and belief:

"The mind always fails first, not the body. The secret is to make your mind work for you, not against you."

With this in mind it shows the importance of addressing the mind when it comes to your weight loss. It may seems difficult to do but really it is not as the quite a few products that will help you do this. these include:

• The Gabriel Method
• The Fat Loss Code
• Weight Loss Attitude
• Weight Loss Hypnosis Pro

Control the Controllables

Control the Controllables is an important life lesson because it includes accepting certain truths, like we can only control so much of what goes on around us. The crux here is that the things we can control can make a huge difference to our lives, so it make sense to only focus on those things.

Here are some questions to make you think about what you can and can not control:

• Can you control the quality of the food your eat?
• Can you control where you eat your food?
• Can you control how much you eat?
• Can you control your emotions?
• Can you control your hunger?
• Can you control the weather?
• Can you control your family and friends?

As you may guess I think most people can control the top five where as the last two you most probably can not control totally, however the weather you can prepare properly for the event nd family and friends you can at least influence.

For example you can influence what others may buy when they go shopping, or you may influence the choice of the restaurant.

Gerry Pritchard The Mental Coach at the New York Red Bulls explains his understanding of control the controllables in relation to soccer. It is really interesting and can be equally applied to weight loss



The part which jumped out at me in the video is the acronym of E.A.R to describe what you need to control the controllables and they are: Effort, Attitude and Response.

So this all comes down to a weight loss attitude of focusing first on the things you can control, then on the ones you can influence and the rest which can't just ignore, prepare for in advance or stay as far away from as you can.

Why not make a list of the things you can control, the things you can not and the thing you can influence.

I hope you found this helpful.

Take care and control those controllables.

Simple Weight Loss Choice

Apart from Shawshank Redemption being my favourite film this key message in the film is very strong and poignant to weight loss.

Why I hear you ask, because some food we put in our body are helping shorten our life and others are helping extend it. the ones which help extend it are obvious and healthy for us. Now I am not saying healthy food will help us live for ever, however what I am saying is healthy food increases our chances of living longer and there for spending more time with those we love. A side effect of eating healthy is weight loss. So what is it going to be when you choose your next meal...

"I guess it comes down to simple choice, really.
Get busy living, or get busy dying."

Remember that food is our fuel so putting the best in keeps the machine (body) running to optimum level for longer, just like any machinery that is well maintained is generally going to last longer than one which is not.

I would love to hear your comments on this post.

You Feel What You eat

This is the whole purpose of eating, is stay alive as long as possible in a happy and healthy way so we can spend time with the one we love. A side effect of eating well and clean is that we will operate at optimum weight, so weight loss would be fixed as a by product of eating healthy.

Eat Crap = Feel Like Crap
Eat Nothing = Feel Like Nothing
Eat Healthy = Feel Helathy
Eat Well = Being Well

Is how I would change the quote because we have the power in this moment to choose what to put in our mouth to make us feel like either, Crap, Nothing, Healthy or Well. In this moment what are you going to choose?

Take care and speak soon

Weight Loss Attitude is Everything

Learn more about The Weight Loss Attitude and find out how you, like many others, can lose weight too.
Think about this for a moment…

If losing weight and getting the body you’ve always wanted was as simple as following a diet and doing a bunch of exercise, we wouldn’t have so many people constantly fighting a losing battle with their weight.

Recent social studies show that 76% of women would like to lose some weight at any given moment. If it was just down to diet and exercise, that percentage would NOT be anywhere near as high.

Given that you’re reading this today, I should imagine you probably want to lose weight.
