Diets: The Positive & Negative Vibes
Welcome back to the BrownBagDiet.blogspot.com. I’ve been on vacation also and I know how difficult it is to stay faithful to your program when you’re out of your natural environment and routine. But while I was away I regenerated some positive vibes and that’s what today’s watchword/slogan lesson is about. Today’s watchword/slogan is Negative Vibes Hurt – Positive Vibes Help.
A large component of successful dieting is attitude. I don’t need to tell you that negative vibes make you feel badly. They reduce your feelings of self worth, cause despair, despondency, and depression and lower your willpower to stay with your diet program. It’s easy for me to say just be positive. Let me put it another way. Remove despair and despondency from your vocabulary. They can hurt your chances for successfully reaching your goal.
Nancy Reagan said it when she talked about drugs. “Just say no”, she said. Some are able to follow that advice but most need to find techniques to bolster their resolve and prop up their
willpower to find success.
If you’re just down on yourself because you haven’t yet come close to reaching your weight goals, start thinking positively and DON’T GIVE UP. Don’t get angry. Don’t turn your anger against yourself. Talk to yourself and GET OVER IT.
If you’re having trouble getting started or staying with a weight loss program because of negative feelings, don’t keep it to yourself. Talk to your doctor. Your doctor will measure your symptoms of depression and determine if they have reached levels beyond your ability to cope. There are treatments, both pharmacological and psychological for this.
Next post I will continue developing the subject of how Negative and Positive vibes affect your efforts to lose weight and how you can overcome the obstacles these things present.
I know the information here is useful as we are being quoted in many forums and on many blogs. Your feedback is welcome. Please continue to quote the blog and forward our address to your contacts, forums or internet groups.
