Natural Weight Management Methods

It started when I sat down with my wife Katie and we began to search for answers to our weight problems. We first identified what each of us hoped to gain and why being slimmer would give us that. Our aspirations turned out to be quite straightforward. For Katie, it was all about the kids – being able to get in and play with them. Equally, she aspired to feeling good about being un-dressed when we’re intimate together.

Predominantly for me it was about buying stylish off-the-peg clothes again, instead of the dreary ageing ranges available for ‘over size’ people. Oh, and I also REALLY wanted to get to the third floor of our house without gasping for breath!

We did our research, and found that as well as considering how we look, we also have to consider how we feel about ourselves. It seems that evidence suggests we have less regard for ourselves the more weight we put on. Most overweight adults believe that being slimmer will restore their happiness. We’d like to offer some of our insights, as we can absolutely identify with this assumption.

Over time scientists have discovered that our sub conscious mind stores information, but can’t decipher whether that information is actually ‘real’. It therefore ‘programs’ the conscious element of our brain with anything that occupies it. Process that thought repeatedly, it emerges as its prevailing concept and thus it’s actual truth.

Reflect on that for a little while – have you been sabotaging your hopes of a slimmer self by constantly telling yourself that you are fat? We should tell our sub conscious what we want, not what we don’t want.

It makes sense to zone in on the happy things we’ll be able to do when we’ve lost the weight. The difficulties seem more worthwhile then. We started off with all the things we’d like to do or have more of: Things like dancing, flirting, swimming, having fun, soccer, running with the kids, volley ball, cycling, sun-bathing and feeling relaxed sitting in a hot tub.

Next we conjured up visions of ourselves on vacation, looking fantastic in our new summer gear. We got the respect and esteem of people as we confidently mingled with others. Life became a breeze.

And so we went through the motions and the pounds came off. Though we’re not what you’d call thin, we’re a heck of a lot slimmer than we were. We both have 100 percent more energy and our new lifestyle brings laughter every day.
