Okay girls, I am going to get a little deep here, but bear with me. I am sure many of you are familiar with the self fulfilling prophecy. Basically it states that the things that we say about ourselves or other people repeatedly are more likely to come true. Case in point, the whole time he was growing up, EMIL told my BIL that he would be in jail by the time he was 18, because he was a difficult kid. No big suprise then, that by the time he was 18, he had been in jail many times. He lived out the prophecy she had set out for him, because he was told that he would.
So how does the self fulfilling prophecy relate to weight loss? In a profound way, I believe. I think that we have got to set out our own prophecys, and cancel out all of the feelings of self doubt that we all battle with. It is my challenge to all of you to come up with your own prophecy. Write it, print it, post it here if you want, post it in your house for sure. Read it and live it. If you do, your prophecy WILL manifest itself.
So here is my self fulfilling prophecy: I will get to goal in June. I will be thinner than I have been in 10 years. I will be in good physical condition, and I will feel great. All symptoms of Fibromyalgia will disappear. From now on, I will honor my body by making good food choices and exercise daily. I will allow myself to let go of any negative energy that is affecting my weight and my body. I am worth it, and I will do it. I believe that by doing these things, my prophecy will manifest itself.
