Now, these are more natural, holistic tips.  These are not your daily diet weight loss tips, because I think we've heard a lot of them already.  And I wanted to delve deeper into some of the exercises that I think really made a huge difference to me.

   Tip number one:- Recognize that losing weight can only do one thing, and that is losing weight, true weight loss is one thing that you have to lose weight, losing weight will make you happier, more  Whole, can't make more.  Valuable, more worthy.  And I think that many times, especially in the society we live in, and the pressure that is put around our bodies, we think that we can't be happy, we are valued and worthy in that body.  are not what we don't.  t prefer or have a body that we think is overweight, ok.  But when you're coming from a place where I'm broken, and I need to fix it, you're constantly working against yourself.  And even if you lose weight off that base, you'll never feel successful because losing weight doesn't make you happier or more satisfied as a person, right?  That's emotional work that needs to be done outside of losing weight.  And sometimes weight loss can be a byproduct of doing that emotional work.  First of all, we have to remember that the journey informs the destination.  That's why we need to come from a place of love, love unconditionally and show ourselves in a truly loving way to be where we are, even when we're not where we want to be.

 Tip number two:- It is to be remembered that there is no vegan, anyone who diets or who has tried many diets in the past.  We know the mindset where we're on the wagon, we're off the wagon, we're on the wagon, we're off the wagon, right where we try to make a change, and then the minute we go off the plan  Or off what we intended for ourselves, then we say to ourselves, we are off the wagon.  But the problem with this thought process lies in the perfection.  And it's very unrealistic.  Because it doesn't matter if you're going to lose weight over time, it's not a perfect linear route.  And what happens when you tell yourself that the minute you ate ice cream or a donut, or something that didn't go to plan, that you're off the wagon now, it encourages more bad behavior.  And I lose I use that word loosely.  But it's the idea that ruined it.  It's off the wagon.  And so what's the point and that can send us one day, two days a week, a month, spiraling right in the direction of eating poorly and not focusing on the goals we've set for ourselves, because  We feel like it's not working anyway.  Correct?  So instead of thinking of a wagon, you just want to think of it as a continuation.  And if I slip up, or when I make a decision that doesn't quite go with my plan, I'm going to see it.  And I'm going to learn from it.  And I'm going to use this as a part of my onward journey, I'm not going to use that as a reason to stop, I'm not going to use that as a reason to leave  Am.  It's a part of the journey, nothing has gone wrong.

Tip number three:- I would say this was one of the biggest mental changes for me.  I know I've shared this before.  But what I began to do was instead to focus on all the foods I felt I needed to restrict and deprive myself of everything I needed to remove from my diet, which led to a constant lack.  Sounds like the situation, I started to focus on all the foods I needed to include, well, and that made it fun.  It made it like a game, I started thinking Hmm, what can I try what's in season?  What did I see in that magazine or on that healthy blog, right?  And then it became like this fickle experiment.  And it didn't feel like a punishment, it was actually enjoyable, and something I was looking forward to.  So focusing on all the foods you can include and experimenting with something new every week, this commitment to yourself can really create a mental shift around weight loss and make it a lot more enjoyable.  and can be made much more durable.

 Tip number Four:- When we are making changes, many times we think that we have to make such a big change and we want to change everything overnight.  But the truth is that forming new habits takes time and requires practice.  So a really cool way to do this is to use the crowd out technique.  Then, instead of saying that I'm not going to eat this or that I'm not going to eat something that allows smoking, like,

 I am going to add two vegetables to my lunch plate every day.  And you practice it for a week, two weeks, three weeks until it becomes so natural and so used to you that you don't feel like trying anymore.  It is something that you do.  And then once that happens, you choose something else to invite on your plate or in your kitchen or in your day-to-day habits, well, so maybe it's drinking more water or every day.  doing a certain amount of movement.  And you just focus on that one thing.  And as soon as you focus on that one thing, other things start missing.  Then again, it's a mental shift, because instead of focusing on the things we think we can't, or shouldn't, we're bringing up the habits we want to do.  And then just let other people be a little crowded, it's a much more gentle way.  And again, it's a much more pleasant approach.

Tip number Five:- Focus on your commitments rather than your results, okay.  When it comes to weight loss many people think that the number on the scale decides whether we have had any success or not or whether we are headed in the right direction.  But as we know, bodies are fluid and are always on the move.  And scales are, you know, not linear, they go up and down on the weight loss journey.  And so it can be very discouraging, when you're just using the scale to decide whether you've progressed toward your goal.  When you make changes to focus on your commitments to yourself, it gives you a lot more control over the day to day, right.  So if your commitment is, hey, I'm going to drink four glasses of water today, or, hey, I'm going to shake my body today for 30 minutes, or I'm going to pour two servings of vegetables all over my body.  Day Lunch Plate.  Well, you have something very clear, which is very specific to focus on.  And then you know whether or not you've been successful that day, by your ability to honor the commitment you made to yourself.  So it becomes a more concrete way to see if you are achieving success.  Because at the end of the day, losing weight over the long haul depends on those day-to-day habits.  And so when you're building a habit for that day, and paying attention to that day, those are small victories that add up over time.  And may I also add how thick the inspiration is, right?  Often people say, well, how can I be more motivated?  how do you motivate yourself.  And I've personally found that motivation is often a byproduct of results we usually aren't motivated by, or perhaps we do for the first few days.  But what motivates us is when we are getting results.  So if you have the result of honoring your commitment, seven to 10 days, no matter how great it starts to feel, you start feeling inspired, you start building momentum.  And that, again, makes everything more enjoyable, more enjoyable and therefore more sustainable.

 Tip number Six:- Be reflTip number Six:-ective.  So when you're not able to stick to your intentions, when you find that you weren't committed to the things you set for yourself, instead of rejecting yourself and turning your back on yourself  Tell yourself.  Use this as an invitation to be soft and kind and curious.  Imagine that every time you took a turn that was out of the way, you wanted to learn from it exactly that you wanted to understand more, rather than just labeling it as a problem and trying to figure it out completely.  Dismiss the matter.  You'll make more forward progress in the long run, okay.  Weight loss isn't just about the number of times the weight falls off or goes down the scale from your body.  It's about the relationship we foster with ourselves.  And when you bring it to the fore.  And mind you, again, this is a huge change in the weight loss journey.  As you can see, what I want to share here today really shows the mental aspects of weight loss.  Yes, of course we can take action with our plates and our food, and it's different for everyone.  But if you can't straighten out the mental game, well, if you can't be on your side and stay at it for the long haul, I don't care what you put on your plate, you'll always be going.  You'll have to get back to the drawing board to deal with it.  I would actually go so far as to say that I think that for many people, the weight loss journey is simply about learning how to foster a kinder, more loving relationship with yourself and your body.  But again, this is just a little food for thought.

  I hope you liked some of these tips.  So I love to share and chat with you guys about it.
