Stop saying I cannot do things

If we would stop finding reasons not to do things, an instead find ways we can do things we would all be better off. 

Just think about if folks if we all said we can and we did our best to do it we would be so much better off. We can all do weight management, now that does not mean we all will lose weight, it just means we can all manage a healthy fit weight for our body type. That weight may not be what you believe it should be or the weight that your doctor, or some chart, or calculator says you should be. What do they know anyway? Your body has its happy weight if we only allow ourselves to settle into it. There are a lot of things that control our weight. Our family history, medications, our hormones.  We need to respect that we are who we are. We need to stop judging ourselves so hard. As long as we eat healthy about 90% of the time we should be great. We also need to be active, and I did not say exercise. Being active is good for our fitness, and eat good food is for our health and weight management. 

So how do we do this? Stop thinking diet, and start allowing yourself to eat what you want to eat and what your body needs to eat. Stop depriving your body of the foods it needs, and stop depriving yourself of the foods you love. Relearn to eat when you are hungry, stop eating by the clock, and stop eating before you are full. This all comes into place once you stop depriving your body of the foods it needs and you want to eat. You will naturally get to the point you eat less and you may even lose weight. But most importantly you will stress less, and you will enjoy life more. 

Life is too short to stress over eating, and over exercising. And you do not need to stress over either of them. Once you get back to eating intuitively you will also have the energy to be more active.

Give it a chance, by the following: 

Remove thoughts of diets from you mine.

Remove the thoughts of I cannot eat this or that and allow yourself the right to eat what you wish to eat and need to eat to fuel your body.

Stop stressing over exercise.

Stop stressing over calorie counts. Keep logging, I do and it helps, I do not pay attention to the calories anymore.

Stop stressing over the scale, it is just a number. I do weigh myself, and log it for my doctors benefit. 

Stop listening to the voices in your head or anyone else that say you should not eat this or that, or that you should do this or that exercise. 

Learn yourself and be yourself.
