I have been pondering on the comments previously made about learning from our bodies. I have decided there are a few things I have learned, and a few more I still need to figure out. I like this perspective on weight loss. It is about communicating with our bodies. Communicating thanks for our healthy muscles and limbs that allow us to move and exercise, communicating love to by resting adequately, eating healthy, and so on and so on.
I would like to comment on the importance of communicating loving/happy/motivating thoughts to our Spirit and Body. I believe whatever we THINK (and say) both our Spirits and Bodies hear. When they hear negative comments about how lame we are, how weak or fat we are, etc. etc., then they will BELIEVE it!!! It's true. Our own bodies will BELIEVE what we think and then make it come true. So if you BELIEVE you will succeed and THINK about it - you will - because your Spirit and Body will make it happen.
So - positive thoughts. Keep em. Throw the negative ones OUT. They have NO place in our minds. Really. They don't. Kick em out and replace them with something NICE about yourself. You can do it. Think of something NICE to say about yourself!!! Your body will believe you...and soon...so will you!!
I agree. I am much more successful at losing weight (and generally more successful in everything in general) when I decide to like myself.
