The Weight of the World is on your Shoulders.

Even the word weight is heavy. It weighs heavy on our minds. It weighs heavy on belt buckles. It’s just a heavy word.

People spend hours weighing up their options. “How can I lose weight?” “How to lose weight FAST?” “Best ways to lose weight?”

We try to shed weight.

But, what steps should you take to lose that which has been weighing you down?

  1. And this is the most important…………….Shed your minds weight.

To achieve this you must find clarity. What is it you are trying to achieve? What are your goals? “I want to lose as much weight as possible” won’t cut it. Be precise, be achievable, be realistic.

Start by looking at where you are right now.

How much weight are you currently carrying? And I’m not talking about around your waist. Stress has a massive part to play in shedding weight. Stress, tired, fatigue, anxiety are all words that anchor you to that sofa.

So practice the motto “get my mind right” and everything else will be much easier.

  1. What is my motivation?

Once you have decided you are ready, write down your motivations. Keep them in your phone, because trust me, you will at some point need to be reminded of them.

“I am losing weight for my family.” “I am losing weight for my wedding.” “I am losing weight for my holiday”

Are all common reasons to lose weight.

Get them in big letters in your phone, use them to keep you in the correct lane.

 

It isn’t only meals that take prep when trying to lose weight. Mind prep will be your best friend and worst enemy on this journey.

 

Remember Mind Body and Soul………………….In that order

Never put the wrong fuel in your car.

Hands up if you have put the wrong fuel in your car. The moment of realisation and then the sinking feeling of panic.

Now let us look at your body is your engine. You would never put diesel in a petrol engine and vice versa, so why do you put the wrong fuel into your body?

What are the symptoms linked to incorrect fuel in a car?

Loss of engine power: either the engine going into limp mode, or just lacking revs.

Increased emissions: basically a lot of black or white smoke coming from the exhaust.

Difficulty starting: especially once the engine has had a chance to cool down.

Now lets read it as putting the wrong fuel into your body

Loss of energy; not functioning properly, lacking in energy

Increased gut emissions (a polite way of putting it)

Difficulty in getting going

What is the right fuel?

We know that everybody is unique. It makes the human being so special. This extends to the fuel you put in your body. Superfoods like avocado, blueberries and beetroot are lauded in the media as “super healthy!” But healthy to who? Me and you? But me and you are different. How I digest avocado is completely different to how you digest avocado.

Before fuelling your body for optimisation do your research. Treat your body like a Ferrari! And the only Ferrari you will ever own!

Remember, mind body and soul……………………In that Order
