Ask Yourself THESE Questions Every Day To Lose Weight Faster

"Will I work out today?" "Will I fill my plate with vegetables tonight?" Asking yourself simple questions is a uniquely effective technique for increasing healthy behavior and could even help you lose weight fast, according to a recent review of over 100 studies spanning 40 years.
 
"When you stop to ask yourself a question like 'Do I need another piece of bread?' you raise your thoughts to the level of consciousness," says Michelle Maidenberg, PhD, president and clinical director of Westchester Group Works in Harrison, NY, and a cognitive-behavioral therapist. "You're recognizing that you have a choice, and that usually leads to healthier decisions."
 
If you're uncomfortable chatting with yourself, the effect works just as well when your smart phone, friends, or family ask those questions. Here are some strategies for putting this powerful technique to work for you, whether you want to get to the gym, shed extra weight, kick-start healthier habits, or accomplish all of the above.
