“Yes I CAN Lose The Weight!” …

Get Unstoppable Weight Loss Motivation
by Andréa Albright
Motivation Needs To Feel Good.
Motivation for losing weight comes from positive emotions carrying you forward to your goal and your dream body.
Motivation comes from the word “emotion” — you can hear they have a similar root to those two words. And that means that your emotions are either going to give you motivation or take motivation away from you.
Lasting motivation really comes from wanting, desiring and enjoying the journey of losing weight.
The reason why people can’t stick with a weight loss program is because they are torturing themselves.
They are fighting against themselves. They are destroying their energy by constantly feeling guilty and feeling overwhelmed.
And you wonder why you don’t have any energy to eat healthy foods or exercise?
… Well, it’s because all of your motivation is being zapped out with negative thinking, and the negative thinking is gonna take a hold of you.
It may seem like no big deal because it’s not really doing anything to you… at least not that you can see.
While it may be hard to understand, your emotions have a very powerful effect on your energy levels on a day-to-day basis.
Cutting Out Negative Thinking Is A HUGE Key
To Staying Motivated In Your Weight Loss Journey
It’s not that negative thinking is bad because we don’t really wanna say ‘this is good and this is bad’ because if you are labeling things as good or bad you might have a tendency to label yourself as “I’m good when I do this” or “I’m bad when I do this”…
That’s not gonna help you to lose weight.
You are always good.
You are always perfect.
And when you do something that you learn from – in my mind that’s a win!
Even the biggest failures are the greatest opportunities for growth so those are good when you realize that.
That’s what I discovered in this journey of losing weight the natural way and keeping it off for over 10 years now.
You’ll know that it’s negative thinking if it drains your energy levels.
Here’s what I look for:
• Do I have more energy when I think this thought, or does it make me tired or depressed?
• Do my shoulders start to slouch forward?
• Does my posture change?
• Does my breathing stop?
I notice these things about the different thoughts that I’m having, and if it is taking energy away from me then I see it as “negative” – meaning it’s draining.
It’s like a negative charge that’s draining energy from me.
Most people don’t realize that constantly beating themselves up in their head with guilt, and regret, and blame… and all the attacking that you do to your body when you’re not supportive of your body or when you’re not excited about what your body is doing for you, and all you’re thinking about is all the problems with your body – that’s gonna drain your motivation and be draining your energy all the time!
Don’t you want to feel good while you’re losing weight?

The tips for feeling good and staying motivated is to start with watching your thoughts.
Thoughts lead to emotions, and it’s usually easier to turn it around when you’re thinking it instead of when it has already become a negative emotion and it’s draining your energy.
Ask yourself this question, ‘Would I say this to my best friend?’
… if you wouldn’t say it to your best friend then don’t say it to your body. Don’t say it to yourself.
If for some reason you maybe have destructive or difficult relationships with your friends and maybe you are caught in a negative dance or negative spiral with your friends…
I would first reconsider your friendship and find positive people in your life that you’ll want to build up and that you show up as a great friend for them – that’s the key to attracting great friends, it’s to be a great friend.
I would start there, just start being really, super encouraging and positive. Be uplifting to your friends and really use that as an opportunity to practice your own self loving voice.
Treat your body like your best friend.
Treat your body like your child.
Forgive your body when it makes mistakes, when it has a difficult time and be gentle because this journey of losing weight – I think you’ve discovered by now that there is no pill and there is no procedure.
It’s just not gonna happen. The diet and weight loss industry have been searching and experimenting for decades and spending billions of dollars doing it. If we were gonna find a quick fix for losing weight, it would’ve happened a long time ago!
So this is the only path that really works – being natural, loving, and patient.
The amazing thing about this journey is that you learn so much about yourself because if you’re a person who has been beating up your body and attacking yourself, I promise that’s gonna show up in other areas of your life as well – not just your body that is crying out for attention and for love.
I’m sure other areas of your life will be affected if they haven’t already. So learning how to have a positive internal voice – this is actually going to increase your motivation so it’s the opposite of negative thinking that zaps your energy and zaps your motivation
Positive thinking explodes your energy and motivation!

The more positive thoughts and emotions you have, it drives more and more motivation in. It’s an upward spiral.
Every time you walk by a mirror say something nice to your reflection, “I love you”, “Wow what an amazing person you are”, “You are so curious about health you want to be healthy, happy, and positive”, or “You are on your perfect path”.
What a gift it is that you want this! What an amazing person you are! You are wanting to give your body the greatest gift of life – of pure clean and natural health. So when you’re looking at yourself in the mirror, or when you’re talking about your body, focus on that.
Think about the things about you that you love. Think about the times that you’ve forgiven yourself. Think about the times that you wanted to give up but you kept trying. Think about all the times that you just keep going.
You haven’t given up. You wouldn’t be reading this now.
The more you focus on the positive things about yourself, about your body and about this natural weight loss journey, the more motivation you’re going to have.
You’re going to be drawing in more and more energy… so this is the upward spiral.
This is why it gets easier and easier. The longer you keep the weight off, the easier and easier it gets to keep the weight off.
I’m not afraid of gaining weight anymore. I’ve kept it off long enough to know that every year of my life I get healthier, and thinner, and fitter, and more flexible, and stronger, and I get more and more positive.
I get more and more caring towards my body.
What an amazing journey! And that is why I know for sure that this works.
I have more motivation than ever and it just continues to get stronger and stronger.
When you are jump starting your motivation, you need to look at your internal thoughts around this journey.
