Being Overweight is a Symptom Not a Cause

This topic was taken from a book called, "Why Your Life Sucks and What to Do About It" by Alan H. Cohen. Yes, I bought this. :) It's AWESOME!

He says, "the answer to being overweight is not so much dieting as it is moving from a sense of insecurity to inner security. Heal the issue at the emotional level, and the physical aspect will follow naturally. Recognize that you are safe, worthy of love, abundance, and happiness."

When you eat like a person who is the weight you want to be and workout regularly you feel good both in your body and emotionally. Think of ways you can create this feeling inside you as much as possible. Feel the feelings of being safe, of feeling loved (Even if it's just friends, family and not romantic love...yet. ;)), start looking forward to your abundance. What would you do if you were making over $100,000 or over $350,000 this year? What would you do with the money? Finally, create the feeling of happiness in your body as much as possible this week. Think of things that make you happy like smelling a puppy dog, watching the sun set, getting a hug from someone.

Remember to use the Tony Robbins method when you get stuck: change your words, your tonality, and your body. Practice this a few times a day. To learn more about this method sign up for my FREE teleclass at www.Revelation-Fitness.com.

Your goal this week should be to get in one to two strength trainings, 2-3 cardio workouts with at least 1 interval, feel good about yourself, and have a GREAT rating most of this week in your journal.
