Weight Loss - Your Diet Success Will Have Thousands Cheering

Why do you want to lose weight? What is your main reason for going on a diet? When most people go on a diet they want to lose weight for a variety of personal reasons. Some want to fit into old clothes they'd like to wear again. Others want their current wardrobe to fit better. Yet others want to look good in a bathing suit at the beach or look more attractive to the opposite sex. If these reasons alone were enough to motivate most people to lose weight, we wouldn't have an obesity epidemic.

Studies have shown that if you have a big enough reason to do something, something that is a major motivator; you are more likely to succeed. What could that be in terms of weight loss?

It is important to understand that losing weight and keeping it off is not just about you. Your success can affect loved ones around you and descendants not yet born. Say, what?

Many studies have been done that show if parents are overweight; their children are more likely to be overweight. The likelihood is great if just one parent is overweight and if both are overweight, the children are more likely to be overweight than they are to be of normal weight.

Now think about this, your children are likely to have children. If your children are overweight than its likely your grandchildren will be overweight. These grandchildren of yours are likely to have children and so on and so on. In other words, the success you have at weight loss can affect thousands of your descendants not yet born.

Are you getting motivated?

Try this exercise: Sit in a comfortable chair and close your eyes (obviously don't attempt this while driving). Take a couple of deep breadths to relax yourself.

Imagine you are sitting in the middle of the field of a large sports stadium. All of the seats are filled, the place is packed, and there is a feeling of electricity in the air. They are all there for you! These thousands and thousands of people are your descendants. They are so grateful for your weight loss success and the example you set for your loved ones. They know that if it wasn't for you, instead of being normal weight, they may all be obese.

There is a big scoreboard at the end of the stadium that says in big letters "Thank you" (Insert your name here). You see next to this scoreboard a large video screen. On this screen a countdown has started from 10. When the number reaches zero the place goes crazy! Tears are streaming down their faces as they look at you and yell in unison, "thank you, thank you, thank you!"

Are you starting to feel a little more motivated?
