The Secret to Achieving your Perfect Weight

Bob Proctor, the star of the popular movie “The Secret,” has brought together a team of weight management, mind, and nutrition and fitness experts to design the Perfect Weight program. This is a life changing program and has been specifically designed to develop new eating habits, assess nutritional needs, and most importantly, overcome mindsets and beliefs about food and weight that are no longer serving you.

Here are some simple steps that will help you change your habits, attitudes and feelings so that you can reach your perfect weight. The Perfect Weight program is available at www.dianeperfectweight.com, or, if you are interested in more information, by emailing [email protected].

• Eat five to six small meals a day. To keep your metabolism high, your body needs energy. Eat just enough to feel full, knowing that you will eat again in a few hours.
• Understand that whatever your mind thinks it’s lost, it will also try to find. Thinking about dieting, weighing yourself, losing weight will only cause your subconscious mind to try to find it again, usually with great results! Instead, think of releasing weight.
• Throw away the bathroom scale. Never step on it again. Judge your progress by the fit of your clothes and the way you look in the mirror.
• Hold your image. Create a picture in your mind of how you look and feel at your perfect weight. Take the time to see that image in your mind and feel how good it makes you feel.
• Drink water. Dehydration mimics hunger. Water is not only good for your health, it is an effective appetite suppressant.
• Understand why you eat. Many times, food becomes more than a way of keeping us alive. Is the bag of chips eaten in front of the TV at night because of boredom, comfort, avoidance, habit? Find new, healthy ways to address those issues instead of food.
• Determine what metabolic imbalances you have. If your body is not functioning at optimal levels, weight can be a result. See a Naturopath or follow the perfect weight program to improve your metabolic balances.
• Determine if fear is a factor. Sometimes, your mind will create fearful thoughts that may sabotage your goal of obtaining your perfect weight. Will my life change if I release weight? Will I be more attractive to the opposite sex? Will more be expected of me? The subconscious mind will fight to keep you in the paradigm you are comfortable with. Spouses, friends and relatives may subconsciously be fearful that your weight loss will make them less attractive to you and they will unconsciously try to block your progress.
• Find support. Find someone who will support you and keep you accountable to your goals. Hiring a coach who can guide you to your perfect weight may be the difference between success and failure.
• Find balance. Take time for yourself. Learn to meditate and try practicing yoga to clear your mind and focus on your goals.
• Don’t feel guilty about eating. Many overweight people feel guilty about eating anything, and that guilt usually sets them up for failure. If you are going out to a nice dinner with friends, depriving yourself by only eating a salad will frustrate you and tempt you to overeat or binge later. Take time to enjoy the company of friends and good food, and eat in moderation. Get back on your plan the next day.
