The Psychology of Weight Loss: Part two - How are you motivate |
by:
Greg Ryan Fitness Expert |
New Years Resolutions do not work because you are really not motivated when you think you are. On the surface you may be, however deep down you are not. That is why by April, that membership to the gym, those new clothes also that new found motivation has all however disappeared.
When it comes to weight loss also sticking to an exercising program you are motivated from two emotions; fear also pleasure. You are or else pushed from two directions; internally also outwardly. Out of the four choices there are two good ones also two bad ones. In other words, two that will help you stick to losing weight also two that will eventually hinder you. Do you know which ones they are?
What motivates you to exercise? Fear of your health or Pleasure of feeling better
What drives you to exercise? Internally vital signs or Toned arms also legs
I best way of staying motivated is a combination of both. However, you have to figure out the combination. I'll give you a hint - pure motives are not seen. I believe that the journey goes from denying the reality of your health to a deep desire to take better care of yourself.
What does it mean to have deep desire for something? Remember those feelings you had back when you wanted your first bicycle. That Barbie doll you made a fit over in the toy store in front of everyone. Or what about that girl or boy you would have done just about anything for? There was such a hunger, a burning in your gut. You couldn't even think straight, eat or sleep because it occupied your every thought. You just had to have it!
If you want to go from denial to desire, call on the "all or nothing attitude." If you are going to start now, you have to start for good. The reality is you will have good attitude also bad attitude days for the rest of your life. But understand, if you are going to be healthier through exercise also eating, you are going to have to participate in some form of exercise till the day you die. This isn't a temporary fix to a long-term problem; it is a lifestyle.
The bottom line of staying motivated to exercise also eat right is finding a meaningful reason too, not just because you have to.
