Weight Loss Now or Not/BenchFit

It takes a mindset, a plan, a process, and support to lose weight, or perhaps a better term

is release weight…as we all know about lost and found stories. There are so

many “quickie” plans out there-but anyone study psych ,or the keys to adopting

healthy new behaviors? Whatever is desired for RELEASING WEIGHT starts

in the heart and mind but is simply diffused by HABITS. There is a point where

habits derail us, detour us, and the tight clothes and belly bulge remains, in

frustration. Ask your self this; Do you really REALLY RRRREEEAAALLLYYYY

want to release weight? Then you need a plan, including some detective work,

and you need the mindset of a champion: see yourself how you wish to be, as if

you are that, now. Part of the PLAN to release weight needs to be a certain satisfaction

in your cells, and your taste buds too, and most often this involves eating more often,

of greater QUALITY FOOD.Cheesecake is an occasional treat, but you may lose some interest

in it if you are already satisfied with a regular intake of delightful eating.

For me, I was reading a new Personal Training Journal in 2004, and a

lightbulb went on-I realized I hadn’t been paying attention to food, and

had been inadvertently starving myself by skipping meals and then having HYPERPHAGIA

(new word:uncontrolled appetite or hunger) at dinner.A common story. So here is the

suggestion: look at what you want to accomplish. Gather Info, there is TONS of free help!

The hard part: changing behavior: not really hard if you swap bad habits for good ones,

gradually. Slowly. Journal and track your progress and feelings. Find a coach or mentor.

Eat more Quality, more often, and of course you’ve heard “drink more water”, but we often eat

more when we are thirsty. Exercise, including aerobic and weight lifting, burns those sneaky calories,

and helps the process of leaning out be accompanied by a sense of confidence and power.

Next post; I’ll key you in on an MD recommended plan.

Do you have a plan you recomend for others? Let us know, Gracias,
