Difficulty losing weight? Check out the weight loss Mind Game!

Are you feeling discouraged?

Having difficulty losing weight?

I understand.

Losing weight can be difficult. Perhaps playing the weight loss mind game will help. Let’s begin!

Why do you want to “play the game”?

• It’s important you know why you want to lose weight.
• What are the reasons losing weight has value to you?
• Make a detailed list of your reasons to lose weight.
• Your list may change as time goes on.
• Whenever you feel your resolve weakening, read and re-read your list to motivate you to “stay in the game”.

Who is “playing the game” with you?

• Having someone to work with on your weight loss journey is very helpful. It helps with accountability—which is very important in weight loss.
• Having a weight loss “buddy” is also helpful. A friend, spouse, co-worker, or relative can make the game more fun.
• Do not compete with your weight loss buddy. Support, share, encourage, and celebrate each other’s victories. You each are running your own race—this is not a competition.

What happens if the “game” seems overwhelming?

• Set small, achievable goals.
• Have mini goals. After you “win” your mini-goal, set another.
• Feeling overwhelmed—take baby steps.
• Slow and steady is perfectly fine.

What happens if you make a mistake playing the “game”?

• Many of us have experienced a deviation or derailment.
• Dieters who “win” the game get right back on their program the next day, or the very next meal.
• Do not let a mistake knock you “out of the game”.

How can healthy food decisions be part of the “game”?

• Tell yourself unhealthy food choices are not an option.
• Remember why you want to lose weight. Re-read your list.
• Know that your healthy food choices will help you “finish” the game and achieve your goals.

The more you “play the game”, the easier it will become.

• Healthy eating decisions are easier to make after you make them over and over again.
• Your success will help motivate you to your next mini-goal.
• Your weight loss skills will improve as you continue to follow your program.
