WEIGHT LOSS CHALLENGE DAY 10 - 10 weight loss TIPS!

Good morning beautiful people,

Today just a few tips to stay on the game:

1.   Think slim….Thinking slim is one of the main strategies of weight loss. You know you already have that slim person within you, now imagine what that slimmer version of you is saying to you about your eating and exercising habits?  Jot it down in your journal and let the slim you be in charge in your mind!

2.   Experiment with your food. What works for me is eating lesser carbohydrates and more vegetables and fruits.

                       

3.   Celery is the ultimate weight loss snack. Pre-wash this vegetable and snack on it all you can, it is a diuretic and is a high fiber vegetable with very low calorie. Enjoy this snack.

                         

4.   Tune in to your, self talk..always be encouraging and supportive of yourself.

5.   Keep recording what you eat in your food journal.

6.   Cut out photographs of  a variety of vegetables and put it on the fridge. This will entice you into making healthy decisions.

                       

7.   Eat when you are hungry, that means know your body.

8.   Increase your vegetable intake and reduce your sugar intake.

9.   Always remember that being healthy and losing weight is a commitment , not a fad. Know that you are doing this for your health and all around wellness, so a lifestyle change is necessary!

                 

10.               Exercise. Exercise. Exercise.

Enjoy your day and I BELIEVE you are reaching your goal weight!

 With lots of love and support,

WEIGHT LOSS CHALLENGE DAY 9 - EAT!

Hello my lovelies,

Sunday, the barbecue is being prepped, the party might be on, friends coming over and you might even feel disciplined about your goals today, determined to get your target weight.

At times like this thinking about your goals beforehand can help motivate you to pay attention to what you need to do in terms of exercise, food and visualization.

                                    

But something interesting happened to me the other day.

It was my daughter’s birthday and I was faced with pizza and cake. I usually avoid sweet things but as luck would have it, the cake she happens to like is the one that is absolutely irresistible to me, with the butter cream icing, that tastes like whipped cream and melts in your mouth delivering an astonishing amount of pleasure to the taste buds, even for a short time.

When I see a cake like that, I take a small piece and then sneak in  another small piece later and by the end of the day I would have eaten a fair share , no- more like the Lion’s share. Here is another misleading technique I use to trick myself, I eat it standing up with a fork , just taking small bites off the side, deceiving my brain to thinking that I am not really eating a whole slice so I 

should be okay! 

                              

Well, I have read a lot of articles on how you should give yourself that one day to simply indulge and eat anything you want, perhaps once a  week. I pondered over that and I decided to experiment.

After the decadent Cosmic Karma pizza packed with  pesto, feta cheese, spinach, tomatoes and olive oil and of course the whole white wheat dough…I ventured into the cake slice. This time I decided to take a good size chunk!

I decided to simply enjoy each and every bite of that delicious cake…I even scraped the edges of the plate….I pushed the platter away from me and my mind said “satisfied!”

                             

The real test would be later in the evening with the left over cake in the fridge.

Well... through out the evening the cake stared at my face, tempting me, taunting me...but.....YES!... not once did I feel like I needed another bite or another tiny slice!

The psychology behind that is,when you deprive yourself of something to a degree that is unhealthy, then the deprivation will haunt you and will re surface in damaging ways. When your subconscious mind feels denied, then the mind will try to compensate by countering the denial in a myriad ways. If deprived of cake the cravings will continue and you will eat equally fattening other things!


Feed your hunger in a reasonable way, listen to your body and keep your goal in mind.

So today, darlings…I invite you to have your cake and eat it too! Just make sure you do this JUST once in a great while though! J

Cheers…and enjoy your Sunday!

WEIGHT LOSS CHALLENGE DAY 8-COMMUNICATE

Dearest  beautiful people,

                           

Day 8 and going strong..today I simply want  you to connect with your body. I invite you to contemplate deeply on your body and the way you connect with her, consider how you talk to the body.

Do you look at the mirror and scold her? Do you say demeaning things to her? Do you degrade her? Would you talk to your best friend like that?

                                          

  

Consider where this is coming from and what purpose it has served you. Feel the delicate relationship you have with her. ( I am using her because I feel comfortable with her J ) This one small aspect of your  interaction is an essential part of the system that harnesses the energy of the spoken word, digs deep into the psyche of  the communication and then brings into the world the results.

When we were little our “elders” would caution our tongues..” Be careful what you say…God might be passing by and grant that wish!” So we were encouraged to speak kindly ( at least when we were around them J ). Now I understand the logic behind that!

When you say something, the brain computes it and then puts everything into motion to deliver that thought to you in results, actions or experience.

So ..when looking at the mirror if you are saying unflattering things to your body, the body will react right back at you!  Everything is energy!

Today, I invite you to get naked and talk to your body with gentle loving kindness….this will transform the elements of the environment into nourishing actions and experiences.  Tell your body “ you are beautiful..I love you…thank you for being with me…”

Do this everyday before or after your shower and observe your feelings and your experiences change.

Here is to loving your body and talking to her like you are in love with her, not in a narcissistic way but in a divine, loving way!

                               

With lots of love and support,

Feel free to share this blog with your friends, or tweet it or like it in Face book. That would help me a great deal..Thank you!

WEIGHT LOSS CHALLENGE DAY 7- DREAM..DREAM..DREAM..

Greetings my lovelies, 

Dream..Dream...Dream.....

                                            

When you clearly visualize a goal, all your attention is focused on achieving that goal. Have you noticed, in the past, if you  wanted ice cream, if you craved ice cream, then you would find a way to get it, come hail or high water!  

                                            

The weight loss works the same way except that you have to find a passion, an obsession, that pleasure in your life and replicate it. There is that part of you that is helping you become determined and resolute about getting what you want.

I had a smoking client last week and when we uncovered her hidden desire, there was a part of her that was determined not to let her quit smoking. So we asked the same part to help her quit it.

We can work the same part in the weight loss as well.

                                         

"Imagination is more important than knowledge."~ Albert Einstein

Between will power and imagination, the imagination usually wins. So it is important to be gentle with yourself….take a few moments to visualize your beautiful self in your mind's mirror  a slimmer, healthier you! When you have a clear picture of yourself in your mind, the mind is so powerful that it will do everything in its power to deliver that to you. 

When you think of yourself,you body, what do you see?............Hummm..interesting huh?

                                       

Now if you are seeing an image of yourself that you are not quite pleased with ( which from my experience most people don't see themselves, as quite  the way they want to actually look), then change it to the one that you like and see how your whole physiology changes. When your mind power is occupied with  a certain image,  then that image will draw you to success and fulfillment. 

Today..keep dreaming..dreaming..dreaming and let your dreams seductively pull you towards your success!

With lots of love and support,

WEIGHT LOSS CHALLENGE DAY 6- WHY ARE YOU EATING WHEN NOT HUNGRY?

Greetings my lovely, divine ones, 

Today let us quickly examine what is making you eat even when you are not hungry?

It takes 21 days to form a habit and 40 days to reach all levels of your being.

Eating and Exercising is simply a habit formation, albeit a habit you have formed since you were a  wee child.

                                    

This is one of the privileges that my clients get to uncover when they do the weight loss program. The logic, the conscious mind knows how to lose weight. Eat less, exercise more, don’t drink sodas or too much alcohol ( a glass of red wine is okay, according to studies)..simple right? Well why don’t we do it? It is because all the software, the programs were installed in your subconscious when you were a little. This does not just apply to weight by the way.

One client found out that she was eating to pacify herself, because when she was a kid, whenever she would cry she was handed a cookie, a sucker etc. So when she co-related that, she was able to identify her behavior and then release it. She lost 15 pounds after that!


                                          

I invite you to think of what behavior is governing your eating habits.

Jot down when you are eating in excess, when you are reaching out for that sweet treat or when are you eating involuntarily and then examine your pattern. With awareness comes change.

Today become aware of your eating habits and make a conscious choice with your hunger.

Enjoy the day and silence your hunger with 5 minute meditations or deep breathing and visualizing the healthy you.
