The Key To Lasting Weight Loss
How many diets have you tried?
A new survey suggests that by age 45, the average women has been on 61 diets!
There are such a vast array of diets. The fact is, many diets from paleo to vegetarian, keto to vegan, and many more, can work. Many people think finding the right diet or weight loss med is the solution.
Read on for what you actually need for LASTING weight loss.
Why strict dieting doesn't work for long term weight loss:
1. They aren't sustainable
I don't know about you, but as soon as I would think the words "I'm on a diet," I'd feel deprived and hungry. Diets are focused around what you can't have, and people often fall into a "on a diet, off a diet mentality."
Trying to "eat perfectly" and then frustrated and deprived, swinging to the other extreme.
2. A diet does not change your beliefs about yourself
When you identify as someone who is destined to be overweight because your whole family is, or someone who can't stick to a diet, or someone who is a "chocoholic," it's nearly impossible to lose the weight and keep it off.
Because of confirmation bias, your brain looks for evidence to back up your beliefs. And then self sabotage ruins all your best laid plans!
3. You use food as a coping tool
Emotional eating is an easy pattern to fall into. Maybe you snack more when you're bored, maybe you crave ice cream or chocolate when your sad, or perhaps a bottle of wine and pizza hits the spot after a stressful day at work! I've been there!
Food can help you feel better- temporarily. And you may have learned from a very early age to use food is a reward, a treat and a consolation.
4. You have unhealthy automatic habits
Your brain automates your behaviors to save time and energy. You don't have to stop to consciously figure out how to do everything everyday or ponder if you should do something. It becomes an automatic pattern.
That's how you end up unpacking grocery bags of BOGO ice cream and a bottle of wine when just that morning, you decided you weren't going to have that anymore!
And it's why you find yourself laying on the couch scrolling social media instead of exercising. It's a patterned behavior.
5. Your metabolism slows down
When you restrict calories, your body slows down your metabolic rate to conserve energy. Then, when you go off the diet and eat more, you can easily gain back even more weight then you lost, because your metabolism is slower and your body isn't burning calories efficiently.
Hormonal fluctuations from menopause or childbirth can also impact your metabolism, mood and energy level. Triple whammy!
So how can you lose the weight and keep if off?
1. Hypnosis helps you change your identity
It isn't hard to do behaviors that go along with your identity- who you believe yourself to be. So, if you're a reader, you read, if you're a runner, you run, if you are a knitter, you knit. You do behaviors that go along with your identity- without debating, and without willpower.
When you transform your identity and believe yourself to be a fit, healthy person, you CRAVE healthy food and movement. And you no longer struggle to stay on a strict, unrealistic diet. You just WANT to eat healthy most of the time!
2. Hypnosis helps you lock in healthy coping techniques, to eliminate emotional eating
You're a human being. You're going to get stressed out, upset and bored, and want to reward yourself. When you can process your feelings in a healthy way, you can break the pattern of emotional eating and feel in control and less impulsive about your food and drink choices.
Because it's not more willpower you need. What you need is more stress relief and healthier coping techniques. Then, the chocolate and ice cream doesn't scream your name anymore!
3. Hypnosis helps healthy behaviors become automatic.
Remember how automatic unhealthy behaviors cause you to continue eating junk food and lay on the couch scrolling? Hypnosis can transform those unhealthy habits into healthy ones.
So that you automatically stock up on healthier food options, and you automatically WANT to exercise and move your body more!
