�You are what you eat.� Well, this statement is quite true if you do not take it literally, of course. After all, I eat cucumbers and I am not, I repeat that I am NOT, a cucumber. Really, I am not! Nor am I the chocolate covered marzipan I ate last week or the bottled water I am ingesting right now. You get the picture, right?
Figuratively speaking, �you are what you eat� means that if you make smart choices about your food and eat healthy you are well on your way to acquiring a healthy body and a smart lifestyle. Conversely, if you consume lots of fatty foods you are eating your way toward gaining weight and all the health problems that accompany obesity.
There are a few other truisms that I would like you to consider, contemplate and analyze: �you are what you think,� �every action begins with a thought� and �every action has a consequence.�
�You are what you think� �" Regardless of how you look at the moment and how much you weigh, train your mind to think of yourself as being beautifully slim and healthfully fit. Visualize yourself inside the thin and trim body of your dreams. Focus on these thoughts and visions as hard as you can and do not ever allow yourself to be dissuaded from them. Believe what your mind is telling you and your unwavering faith will also seep into your subconscious thought processes.
To help you along this process you might want to adopt a mantra such as �I am slim and healthy� and repeat it often.
�Every action begins with a thought� �" every choice we make and each deed we perform is propelled by a thought or a series of thoughts. We are consciously aware of many of these thoughts yet some of them are subconscious. In either case or whether we recognize them or not, thoughts are the driving forces that precede each and every one of our actions.
�Every action has a consequence� �" each of our actions leads to an end result and a consequence. Good and positive actions lead to good and positive results while bad actions end with bad results. It never fails regardless of our intent.
Now let us combine the three truisms that we defined above and examine their application to the subject at hand: �Picture Yourself as a Lean, Slim Person.�
Think of yourself as being slim and lean and believe it with all your heart. Your focus on the slim and lean you will encourage you to take actions to support being slim and lean. Actions that supports being slim and lean ultimately result in an actual and true-to-life slim and lean you.
I encourage you to focus on the picture in your mind of being slim, lean and healthy.
