Is Motivation Your Missing Weight Loss Ingredient?

Yes, there exists so much talk about motivation. Yet, it remains highly overlooked or seriously underestimated.

Right now, would you like to know what aspect of weight loss troubles people the most? It's attitude... particularly, trying to change something that's been happening to you, or around you, probably for years of your life.

There are triggers that lead to gaining weight. And losing weight requires UNDOING of triggering events. How to you handle that one? First, by sitting down, and simply THINKING.

Reflect on what makes you do the things you do. Look openly for deeply embedded psychological or emotional instances that set you up to follow a path that leads to a bigger body. Then, combine dynamics plus savvy to get powerful weight loss results.

Yes, we are talking about control... but not the type that deals with submission – not the all or nothing, I lose-you-win syndrome. Instead, this is about slowly acquiring a very gentle and patient understanding of yourself.

Exercise and nutrition scientists have already done the “purely physical” homework for you. Yet, they now leave YOU with the part having the heaviest burden... and, that is the DOING. Not to worry, though... you now have your primary “Secret” being revealed. And, as you already know, once the secret gets out, virtually anyone or everybody starts taking advantage of it.

So, at present, what are your physical and psychological responses to weight loss practice and principle? Let's take a walk together and look at these concepts.

Losing weight for good, requires your emotional resolution. And, here's how to understand and direct emotional reactions that control your physical response to losing excess weight, managing your lean-body cycles, PLUS create a lighter leaner body with more greatly improved body fat percentages.

Both personally and professionally, I listen closely to your lose-body-fat questions. Consistently, I witness your constant “how do I lose body fat” queries. And you know, truthfully, it makes me wonder – causing me to pose a question back to you. That is, “If you really know exactly what it took to lose body fat enjoyably and quickly, would you actually be willing to apply yourself, each and every day, to performing the exact steps outlined for you?”

Your Key For How To Lose Body Fat
To help explain why I am asking you this, I can share with you a brief yet honestly applicable body fat story.

On Monday, about two weeks ago, I visited a local office to process some important paperwork. The receptionist that handled my task noticed my occupational description as “Lifestyle & Weight Management Consultant,” and with sincere curiosity plus interest, she began to ask me questions about how to lose body fat.

My time was short, and the office environment was very busy and hectic at that time. Therefore, to get right to the heart of the matter of losing body fat, I cut directly into the three “secrets” that everyone who wants to lose body fat successfully has to know and deal with at some point in time. I told her directly (and, by this time, at least 3 or 4 other ladies were listening attentively, as well... in fact, they all got out their notepads and began to immediately write down my “body fat secrets” response) which is:

1) Know your numbers
2) Eat smartly
3) Apply specific exercises.

In the very next post, you can examine these three weight management tools in detail.
