Hiya,
I went to Borders the other day (as you do) looking for a cure for my endless despair yet again, wondering if I'll find a book that will show me the way and I'll finally discover the answer to my psycho/weight/body image/motivation problems...
So I came across this weight loss/motivation building CD involving a bit of hypnosis etc. (didn't think it will reeeeally work but like the typical fatty I am always on the look for a miracle ) and I thought to myself that it's going to be another one of those things that I buy, will use once maybe because I got excited about it in the shop and then it will sit on the shelf and gather dust like other things i.e. exercising bike, pedometer, and such like... but of course I did get it despite thinking that the person at the till will probably think I'm a saddo .
Anyways....
I was listening to this motivation CD and one of the things that was said there is to visualize yourself in your target/goal weight to let it inspire you and so on...and........I can't do it...I mean I can visualize a nice slim body but I can't visualize my face or my head on top of this slim body...I guess it could be because I was never slim and don't remember myself like this...but also maybe because I just don't believe it could really happened...I don't know.
Can any of you visualize yourself slim?
It made me think about my (unplanned) every day routine on the way to and back from work, I sit on the bus and look at people outside the window, and I imagine 'what if or I wish... I swapped bodies with the girl that is crossing the street'. Does anyone else do that?
If my fantasy came true and I could really swap bodies with someone I guess I would choose to swap with Jennifer Aniston.
Who would you swap with?
