Pulverize Fear And Claim A New Year-A Strategy To Lose Weight

We all have fears. We’ve all had those feelings that creep into the pit of our stomach and paralyze us. However, for some, their fears cripple them day in and day out. It’s there upon waking and is with them as they try to retire for the evening. It’s a constant voice that questions everything relentlessly. Did you eat too much today? Did you eat the right things? Did you exercise enough? Then the criticism begins. You’re fat! You’re never going to lose weight. Why are you doing this to yourself..just accept who you are and your body!!

Anxiety and self defeat are common in many overweight people and often it is because of emotional issues. Fear is huge factor but it can be defeated. To walk away from fear and reclaim your true inner voice and the body you desire you need to confront your emotional turmoil. This may take weeks, months, maybe even years. Remember life is a process not a result!

Be patient and work on you every chance you get. Give yourself a hug and learn what triggers your emotional discord. Keep a journal, record your thoughts, and your eating habits and learn to just walk away.

Confront your fears, reason with them, embrace them and then pulverize them. Fear is simply a cognitive reaction of your doing. It is in your locus of control. If you can turn fear into a positive and walk away you will most likely walk away from your weight issues as well. What do I mean? Don’t be surprised to see yourself with a more positive and confident demeanor. You’ll be happy with yourself and it won’t be long until the weight simply disappears.
