Fast Weight Loss? Its Possible With A Simple Mindset Twist

Most people that I talk to about health and fitness talk about "getting in shape". But I don't think they realize that their words are actually counterproductive to their aspirations of fast weight loss. You hear a lot of people lamenting about being out of shape and saying, "I need to get in shape and lose weight fast", or, "I want to get in shape and lose fat." What you don't hear them saying is, "I want to get in shape, create fast weight loss, and stay that way." They may want to stay in shape, but their mindset is focused on getting in shape. This makes you more susceptible to the fad diets and latest exercise gimmick on the market. You're so focused on getting in shape that you'll try almost anything regardless of how silly or difficult to follow it might seem, because you're entirely focused on the short term goal.

A simple twist in that "quick fix" idea to one of more long term and constant success in your goal to lose fat will indeed take you down the correct path"quick fix" mindset to one of long term success in your hopes to lose fat will steer you down the correct path. You'll be less enticed by the late night TV hype, and more focused on doing the right things most of the time. Wouldn't you agree that life long health and fitness is what's most important? You must create this environment in your body that allows you to lose weight fast...that is absolutely essential to your goals. A person who is in shape in their 50s and 60s is a lot more impressive to me than someone who is lean and fit in their 20s and 30s. That's because the dedication to maintaining the proper exercise plan and a sensible nutrition strategy for the rest of your life is rare to find. It's a rare mindset.

To achieve fast weight loss permanently and transform your body and health for good, you have to make it a true lifestyle change...a new series of habits. And that starts in your mind. That's what the people who are lean for life do. In fact, if I think about all of the people I personally know that are in great shape and have been for a while, I start to understand that they have their minds on staying in shape. They think about it all the time, but not with obsession, with a keen eye on the idea of "Is this going to help or hurt my current and long term health and fitness"Is this going to positively or negatively impact my long term health and fitness?". "Am I doing everything I reasonable can to lose fat and live a healthy lifestyle?".

The good news is that research shows you can develop simple habits like those involved in eating and exercising properly in under a month…sometimes even sooner. And with the type of exercise and nutrition tips I recommend to my Fat Burning Furnace students, you don't need o give up your life's pursuits so that you are working out every day, nor do you need to follow a wacky diet you can't reasonably make a lifestyle out of. And after a few months of practicing these methods, I've found that your body will start telling you it wants to keep exercising and eating right…you just won't feel right with out it. Why? Because your body naturally wants to be healthy and lean. You can create fast weight loss by workouts that last between 15-25 minutes performed just 2-3 times per week.

So I ask you to forget the idea of merely "getting in shape" and instead make the idea of staying in shape and building the fat burning environment that is vital to life long health and fitness and fast weight loss"get in shape" mindset, and instead embrace the idea of staying in shape and creating that fat burning furnace that is so essential to life long health and fitness and fast weight loss permanently. Imagine yourself in the body of your dreams, today, tomorrow, and 5, 10, 20 or more years from now. What will you be doing then, in your lean, strong, and healthy body? Chances are, you won't be trying to "get in shape". Alternatively, you'll create fast weight loss all day long, every day, and you'll be able to enjoy life as you should...full of vitality and passion.
