Self sabotage is a common problem when you like to loose weight.
Your subconscious mind is telling you there is something wonderful in the fridge, your conscious mind says stay away from it… however your feets move you closer and you end up opening the fridge just to have a look if this great jammy ??? is still in there,… just taste a bit to see if it is still Ok, NO says your conscious mind…
Then your subconscious mind goes on you eat it, then you have a bad feeling…
Do you get the story?
Most weight loss program are based on exercises and diet, unfortunately to often our programs in our subconscious mind are not influenced from this programs which leads to immense struggle and motivational problems.
In short a wast of energy between your conscious and subconscious mind…

Have you ever read “Intuitive Eating” by Evelyn Tribole (or something like that)?

You might find it interesting reading. It’s basically about the concept of STOPPING when full, and eating what satisfies you… eat that macaroni and cheese you want, and stop when full, or you will eat 800 calories of rice cakes trying to stop the mac and cheese craving!

Good for you! I feel ya on the whole “not gonna give up butter, cheese or carb” thing. If I ever had to do something that MADE me give up anything I wanted….well, let’s just say that it wouldn’t last long. I am one stubborn chica, and when someone tells me not to do something, I just want to do it more.
I AM following Weight Watchers count point system. Basically I can eat whatever I want, but I have to trade off during some other meal….So if I REALLY want a piece of pizza, then I can have it, but I have to eat healthier the rest of the day. You learn to “budget” your points. And I am trying to get in all of the fruits/veggies/dairy that is recommended.
The team that is doing the weightloss competition here had to reveal our “secret number” to each other. That was hard. I’d rather tell someone I pooped my pants than admit to my number. But it was good because it really makes me be accountable. And knowing that there are otheres out there who look at me and KNOW my number means that I am going to try even harder to make that number smaller. At least I don’t have to weigh myself in their presence, wearing only a sports bra and spandex shorts. (Those poor Biggest Loser people….can’t they at least find them supportive bras?!?!?)
Could you guys take up raquetball? Or go walk at Wildwood Park? Or even the waterfront. Or maybe join a volleyball or softball team somewhere.
Now I’m off to google the Okinawan food principle.
