Mind Set Sabotage Success

 Anyone who is close to me knows that over the years I have lost and found the same 20 pounds over and over again.

The last fat loss journey came at the beginning of a harsh cold winter that also included both gym locker rooms in a state of "closed for remodeling." Well of course, I hybernated and did not want to drive on Virginia roads with those crazy southern drivers and chance wrecking. Besides, it was inconvenient to go work out, drive all the way home, then drive all the way back into the office as well. Those were my excuses. And I stuck to them. I slowly stopped eating all those foods that flipped my fat burning switch on. I not only watched (I DARED) the 20 pounds to return and they happily brought along another 5 pounds to boot.

What I did not realize then was I did not have the MIND SET to succeed. As I lost those fat pounds and got into a size 8, men were paying attention to me. Not that that has never happened before but I felt UNSAFE in my new body. And as a faithful body is so apt to do, (thank you, body) it put me in SURVIVAL MODE and I sabotaged my results.  When the pounds returned, the unwanted attention stopped. (what a relief!)

Fast forward a year and a half. I am happy in my skin, I am feeling love and gratitude and wear joy most of the time. And that same attention? Yeah. It's back. I see it has nothing to do with my body. It has everything to do what I PROJECT. And the projection of joy, peace and gratitude? IT IS ATTRACTIVE. It attracts smiles, attention, people. And that is OK (INTROVERT).

Now I know I am safe in my body. I also recognize that I only had a short term (3 months plan). When I reached my short term goal, I STOPPED DOING WHAT I DID TO GET THERE. I did not maintain it.

As a part of healthy fat loss, it is imperative to not only have a plan, and prepare for meals, it is necessary to exercise, including weight bearing exercise of some sort PLUS put on the proper mindset.

What are some of the healthy mindsets of healthy, fit people? A fit person does not fret over food all day.  A fit person plans to exercise, and then does it. A healthy fit person plans ahead for the meals for the day, especially if on the go, so fast food (name your brand) does not become a tempting option. A healthy fit person eats every 2-3 hours to keep blood sugar stable and drinks enough water.  A fit person ACTS and THINKS fit and healthy. Hence that is what they ARE. You are what you think.

I am so ready to begin this next fat burn phase. While I wait for Ketopia to arrive, I am strapping on a more  successful mindset. I am healthy. I am fit. I am safe in my new body. I will maintain my results for a lifetime. I can do this.

So can you. Take the 10-30 Day Reset Challenge with me. Let's do it.
