Diet and Health

Congratulations!  If you have come this far you are now eating healthier and exercising on a regular basis.  Keep up the good work.  Now it the time for you to keep up a positive mental attitude.  Don’t be discouraged if you miss a day exercising or eat too much at a party.  Just get right back on the wagon and keep going.  Come up with a positive, motivating mantra for yourself such as “I know I can” or “Just keep moving”.  Use this mantra to keep your mind clear of negative thoughts. 

To help keep your mind positive avoid talking about your diet or weight loss plans with negative individuals.  The last thing you need is someone raining on your parade.  Just allow them to see the results.  Soon they will see you lean and strong and they will ask you how you got that way.  People that are naysayers could thwart your entire progress.  Avoid them!

If negative thoughts about problems or issues you have in your life keep popping up in your mind.  Erase them.   Visualize that your mind is a large chalk board and the negative thoughts are written on the chalk board.  Now imagine yourself with an eraser, erasing all of the negative thoughts.  Do this everytime the negative thoughts pop into your head.  There is no need for you to dwell on anything, it never helps and it can actually hurt you.  Stress kills and it ruins your motivation for continuing with your new healthy lifestyle.  Hakuna Matata! No worries!
