Is mind-set important for weight loss?

By Toby Edge


Right, I'm not going to waste any of your time here building this up. I'm just going to come out and give you the answer right away. So here we are - 'Yes, Mind-set is very important to weight loss'. In fact, it really is the foundation of any long term weight loss success.

In order to consider this in greater details, it is important that we look at programming. So, what exactly is programming? Well, what we are really talking about here at the end of the day is your subconscious mind. This is where your programs are stored and its the driving force behind any success that you experience. Your path will be determined by your subconscious, whether this is towards weight loss success of failure.

Our programming comes from everything we hear, everything people say to us, everything we say to ourselves, all of our internal dialogue, everything that we do, and so on. All of this eventually adds up to create your beliefs. So, for example, if you are consistently told that diets don't work or that you'll never be slim, this is going to be formed into a subconscious belief.

The beliefs that you have developed will then create your attitudes, which will then create your feelings and these will determine your actions. The actions that you take will then lead to a result, positive or negative. So if your actions are negative towards dieting and weight loss then you will always be struggling to lose weight and keep that weight off. This is what most people struggle with.

So all of this really starts with your programming. If you have spend your entire life battling with dieting and foods and your weight then you're always going to struggle. Your subconscious, simply put, will not be helping you, but hindering you.

As the saying goes, 'what you believe you will achieve'. This is completely true but it works in both ways. So if your beliefs, which are created by your programming, are not right for long term weight loss, you will achieve just that - a failure to achieve this goal.

So your mind-set really is the foundation of long term weight loss success. The problem is that its generally neglected by the weight loss community. People simply do not seem to realise how important the mind is.....and until you get that right, you'll never achieve your weight loss goals. So how do you get it right? Well, this is something to consider in another article.
