I read an article last night on the flight home from Florida in the December issue of O (oprah's magazine). It was Written by the trainers from the biggest loser; Bob Harper and Jillian Michaels. It was titled "20 Ways to win at losing weight". I thought maybe I'd post them one by one and we could get some discussion going on how we felt about each "way" they suggest.
1. There's no one secret to being thin Losing weight and keeping it off, says Jillian Michaels, "requires a holistic approach that combines proper diet, good workouts, knowing why you overeat, and understanding how to push yourself towards change." The desire to change really has to come from inside. "Sometimes you've got to have hit rock bottom, like realizing you can't play tag with your kids without getting out of breath," Jillian says. "If you're not ready for something new, no matter what you try, it's not going to work."
My thoughts: I think pretty much says it all for me. I am always looking for a new "way" to lose this weight once and for all. Maybe it's because I just don't want to face the fact the fact that I haven't been successful in the 4 years that I have been here because I just don't want it bad enough and I am not willing to give it what it takes long term. In my mind I want it, but my actions speak volumes.
Your thoughts on way #1???
