Can you imagine?
When you decide to go on a diet, what is it that makes you want to do it? Is it the image of the way you look now and you feel bad because of this? Or are you picturing yourself looking and feeling fabulous?
I would put money on nearly all of you starting a diet because you feel so utterly fed up with the way you look and feel right now.
I know how it feels to sit there feeling your tummy bulging over your jeans and opting for a more ‘casual’ look as those clothes don’t tend to be tight.
These feelings can be a huge motivator – to begin with, but what happens when you lose a stone and those jeans don’t feel quite so tight anymore?
As soon as you can you need to change the image in your head from one that you don’t like – you a few weeks ago – to an image of you in a few months time when you’re even slimmer than you are now and feeling wonderful because you finally managed to follow through with your plans to be slim. Focussing on this positive image will be what will help you achieve your goals. Mmmmmm just imagine how good it’s going to feel………
