the main reason people dont achieve any results is because they dont act. they say" hmmmmm, I'd like to lose weight"......and they will read up on it or try it for a week. but this doesnt work
for change to be succesful it has to be lasting, and you have to take action. you have to know what your long term goal is, you need an overall purpose to fal back on when you hit those short term road bumps.
there's nothing you
can't accomplish if you clearly decide what it is that you're absolutely committed to achieving, you are willing to take massive action, you notice what's working or not and you continue to
change your approach until you achieve what you want, using whatever life gives you along the way.
constant, applied action, is the pathway to provedence |

| What a load of horse . So if a girl starts taking the pill and gains weight it's a mindset problem? Sure with enough discipline almost anyone could lose weight, but ultimately hormones (and knowledge of what to eat) play a massive role which your psychobabble does not acknowledge at all. Someone might try their best on a diet that to them looks reasonable but inherently isn't effective. That is not a mindset problem. |

Always liked wine more than beer as well, but it gives me the worst hangovers sometimes and you have to fork out for sometime decent. Sometimes I'd join a wine club and they'd send me out a crate of 12 various ones to try and they're usually pretty interesting.
Oh, I lost 6kg once when I got sick a few years ago. Do I win? :D |

A lot of it is training your mind. You to train your mind to feel disgusted by eating more than you need to. Overeating is psychological not biological. You have to train your mind. Like any discipline, you need to step outside your self. Create mental fortitude.
It's your belief system. You need to have a constant purpose, and when

You're basically right but getting a little too mumbo gumbo.
The modern environment is stacked against us. Our body knows what it wants the challenge is to be aware enough to listen to it and be mentally strong enough to ignore all those tempations out there.
Stu you need relax, have a glass of Yellow tail, and chase it with a cold can of Foster's (Australia for beer) :p |

it's called confidence preservation mechanism
seek first to understand then be understood, when someone lashes out at you and you just cant understand why they wouyld do that...instead of getting in their face and shouting, you can try slowing down, and just asking them why they would say such negative lashing out things....and then just listen to them....let them talk for a while and after tell them a brief summary of what they said...after this, they will feel better. and you can understand their confidence preervation mechanism
when you challenge their CPM, their entire world is being challenged...their entire belief structure is being cracked.....and they have reached these beliefs that you cant change due to a chain of internal reationalizations..each time they refuse to change, it's always dude to something outside, so they create a false paradigm which allows them to be satisfied within this reality.
pre frontal cortex, will power muscle in your brain
people who lash out at others with negativity are in a negative state themselves and they aren't happy with their overall state, but they need to retain their internal rationailisation, their cpm...as soon as they get a setback they freak out and give up.....they blame on external factors. you need to create a higher level paradigm...and adopt a a higher level belief vehicle.
but someone might not be able to do that because their brain is not capable of leaving the lower state. it's all about eating properly....with proper cfood you get higher brain activity.
people who lash out at others because they dont want to change their state of being are just lashing out at themselves. they are comfortable in their state of inactivity. they are comfortable with not acting to change their state. but they are not actually happy in their state. if they were happy with their state they wouldnt lash out at people who point out that their state can change.
they blame their inability to make lasting change on external factors....and this allows them to preserve their internal belief vehicles.....
my points aren't completely specific to weight loss. I am trying to provide a different perspective that you can adopt for any part of your life that wyou want to change. i'm not a weight loss expert or a dietiaician.
these internal belief vehicles serve you for a period, but at some point it's good try and break out of them
and you encounter others who are incapable of breaking out of these paradigms, and then they lash out at you for trying to help and change thier paradigm....and people dnt like this....because no one around them can better themselves. people dont like to see people doing better than them or trying to imrpove themselves....on the surface...anyway...deep down they would know and encourage others to change and improve.....
edit: I'm not saying this like I do it....i'm trying to be more like this...like challenge myself...no one's perfect.....lol, Im alot sometimes but hey, at least try to change is better than not trying to. |

it's not like i'm saying hey.....if you just think hardenough and believe...you can grow a pair of wings.....
no...
we're just talking about losing a couple pounds here.
who can't lose a couple pounds here or there.....take it slow...lose a pound a month.....if you stay constant, you'll lose 12 pounds over a year, and if you keep it off, then bam,,,,thats good change....... |

Like most things in life the doing is the hardest part. That's why there are as many types of diets as there are self help books. Internal change is the hardest thing to achieve.
Of course one could argue this desire to change or improve ourselves is a form of insanity unique to humans. Every other life form on the planet are content being who they are. You don't see monkeys reading self help books wracking their brains trying to figure out how to change themselves. Ponder that before posting another WOW. |

Animals are subject to their environments. They dont have the sacred ability to control their environment. As opposed to viewing our ability to control our environments as a futile absurd thing. We can view it as the most powerful tool at our disposal. The tool that can create our destiniies as opposed to leave us subject to chance. Again, our belief systems shape our lives. If we believe that we will fail, then we will fail. If we believe that past always = future. THen we have already ffailed. If we create beliefs based on true references, then we will succeed. The beliefs only become beliefs when you internalize them and make them not just ideas. To decide......de means from and cide is cedeare "to cut" to truly decide is to cut away into two paths and go that path. Only that path, with no option for failure. Nothing can make you fail. You will make your beliefs become reality. You will find the happiness you seek. Thiss goes back to changing your beliefs. Change your standards, change your limiting beliefs and then finally keep changing your strategy until it allows you to reach your goals.
edit:
Remember, as long as you believe
something, your brain operates on automatic pilot, filtering any input from the environment and
searching for references to validate your belief, regardless of what it is. |

So you've read a load of self-help bull that you've never put into practise and are now preaching it like you're a guru. Nice one. |

| well, it's just more people who are severly unhappy with their state of being, that need to lash out at people who think positively. it makes them feel more grounded in their low conscioussness state of being. people who try and bring positivity to a thread about trying to lose weight......are going to be met with vicious bad people who only think in negatives...and want to bring everyone around them down....instead of trying to pull people up. |
