Help to Lose Weight – What You See is What You Get~

If you need help to lose weight, you must remember that sometimes what you see is what you get! When I was growing up, my sister and mother were obsessed with their weight. My mom especially was always on some kind of diet. My sister too, had my mom's body. Lots of bust, lots of hips and legs and a little waist. She too, was always on a diet.

One of my sister’s favorite ways to help her curb her appetite was to put a picture on the refrigerator of a beautiful woman or model. Everytime she went to the frig to get a snack, there was the beautiful woman with the great figure staring at her in the body she wanted. Here's a great example of what I mean:

See

what

I

mean???

Kinda

makes

you

want

to give up snacks and exercise too!

If you've got a beautiful woman with a great body staring at you every time you reach for a snack, you're gonna tend to STOP your actions and REMEMBER your goals.

If your goal is to lose weight and you need help to lose weight, a simple picture can really make or break you. No kiddin!

I am NOT suggesting that you try and look like a model. Get Real! Those girls are way young and way too thin. They don't look like the girl next door. But the picture of the model or a lean woman can help give you the drive you need to shed those extra pounds and keep you out of the frig!

Sadly enough in later years, my sister developed Bulimia, which was not a good thing, but it certainly had nothing to do with a picture on the frig.

In her younger years she didn’t know about Bulimia and the refrigerator picture really worked well. The refrigerator trick really works.

Pictures are just a mental reminder to get up off your ass and move! Remember too, that you can post a picture anywhere in your home. You don't have to limit yourself just to the frig. Post pictures wherever you want. Cabinets full of cookies and snacks are a great place. Your bathroom and clothes chest are other places you might choose.

If you are a guy, then post a picture of a great looking man or woman. Do whatever works for YOU! If you need help to lose weight, pictures really work, so add one to your frig today! What you see really can be what you get!

*You can also use notes or words instead of pictures. A great big STOP sign on the frig also works. Or simply post words of encouragement like "I can do this!" or "Remember my weight loss goals!" Other reminders that are very important are to remind yourself that you are a beautiful person! Giving your brain a gentle reminder is a good thing when you're trying to lose weight. Your brain is powerful and will help you be powerful too!

Just remember, we are all different. Your body might not be programmed to be a size 6. Don't shoot for the moon if the moon is unattainable. Do the best you can for your own body type. Rome wasn't built in a day and changes take time. Be easy on yourself and make those little changes that can make a big difference in long term weight loss goals!
