Do You Have Beliefs About Weight Loss That Don't Serve You?

I've never recommended pills to lose weight. I think you can lose weight safely without ingesting them. Why? Well, many times, stress causes weight gain.

And what is the reason for stress?

Would you believe it is your beliefs?

What is your belief? Your thoughts. If you didn't believe it, you wouldn't think it. So if you work with your thoughts to turn them around, you don't need to take outside stimuli such as pills.

Would you like to get rid of your excess weight now? What is stopping you? Your beliefs. Right? That was easy. Think about it for a moment. What are the beliefs you have that don't serve you?

Let your mind wander as you think. While you are thinking, concentrate on your thoughts. There are probably good thoughts and negative thoughts, aren't there?

How about this? Are you thinking these thoughts (or any like them)?: I'm fat. I'm not skinny enough. I'll never lose that weight. If I lose weight, it'll just come back. I can't do it. No one can love me when I look like this.

You understand, right? Are any of those sentences yours?

Now, it's no doubt obvious that those sentences don't serve you, but if you do have doubts about whether or not the sentences you say to yourself the most do or don't serve you, ask yourself these questions:

Is there anything about this belief that is good?
Why do I believe this?
If I let go of this belief, what will my life be like?
If I let go of this belief, what will happen to my loved ones, my friends, my associates?

Now, once you figure out which beliefs you have that aren't helping you, ask this question:
What belief do I want in place of it? (Because if you take away a belief, you need to replace it so it doesn't come back.)

Once you've figured out what you want your new belief to be, ask yourself these questions to make sure it's right for you.

Is there anything about this belief that is not good?
Why do I believe this?
If I keep this belief, what will my life be like?
If I keep this belief, what will happen to me, my loved ones, my friends, my associates?

Now, reinforce your new belief by visualizing the benefits it will yield. For instance:
What would happen if you felt slim enough, in excellent shape, worthy enough? (See, hear, feel, smell, touch, taste what would happen if you were slim enough. Then, in excellent shape. Then worthy enough. Plus, any other things you thought.)

What would happen if you could do the things you didn't think you could, because your self-esteem is higher than it's ever been? (Imagine seeing, hearing, feeling, smelling, touching, tasting what would happen as you do the things you didn't think you could.)

What steps could you take right now if you actually decided to become the person you want to be? How would your new beliefs support that action?

How did your negative beliefs NOT support that action?

Again, I've never recommended pills to lose weight. I think you can lose weight safely without them. As long as you know how to think.
