The one thing that drives me mad about fatties more than the whinging about genes, glands and total under estimation of what they eat is the continued ignorance towards making the right lifestyle choices. There doesn’t appear to be any comprehension of the fact that little things can make a big difference.
For example I know one girl who has taken it upon herself to seriously watch what she eats, she is doing brilliantly in this regard – a real first class effort. On top of this she has also started going to the gym 3-4 times a week. Again this is great and it will no doubt help her achieve her weight loss goals. However with regard to the gym there are some issues because she is finding it a bit boring! I’m not that surprised, lots of people find the gym boring.
This is where lifestyle choices come into play. You see even though she is happy to watch what she eats and will drag herself down the gym she hasn’t actually changed her mindset one little bit. She has friends that live less that 200 yards away from her house and yet she’ll still insist on driving to go and see them. Ask her why she doesn’t walk and she’ll not have an answer for you. It’s the same with going to the shop or any activity that involves her getting of her ass. She doesn’t have to walk, she goes to the gym…..for now. Those tiny little changes can make all the difference in the future. The more you do the more you’ll find you are capable of doing. It’s just a case of breaking that mindset and thinking “healthy” in all parts of your life. If you can get that sorted then you might even find that after a while you don’t need to diet and that exercise becomes about getting fitter and not losing weight – the weight takes care of itself.
What I don’t know is how you go abut changing that mindset?
