Ok, I'm just going to come out and answer this question right now. Yes. Mind-set is not only important for weight loss...its absolutely critical and essential. It is, in the fact, the foundation of all of your weight loss success.
To consider this in depth, we need to talk about programming. What do I mean by this? Well, we're kind of talking about your subconscious here. This is where all of your programming is stored, and this is what is really driving all of your actions and decisions. It is your subconscious that will determine which path you take...whether thats towards long term weight loss or consistent rebound weight gain from dieting.
Our programming originates from everything we say, do, hear, and so on. This all adds up to create the beliefs that we hold. For example, if, when you are young and all of the way through your life, you are told that you will never be slim and that you'll never lose weight for good with any diet, this is going to form itself into a subconscious belief.
The beliefs that you have developed will then create your attitudes, which will then create your feelings and these will determine your actions. The actions that you take will then lead to a result, positive or negative. So if your actions are negative towards dieting and weight loss then you will always be struggling to lose weight and keep that weight off. This is what most people struggle with.
All of this, therefore, starts with your programming. If you have spent years battling against your weight then your programming will be all wrong. It will be preventing you from achieving your conscious goal of long term weight loss.
What you believe, you will achieve. Its a popular saying and its so true. Even though this saying is often used to motivate people to develop positive beliefs, it also shows that negative beliefs will lead to negative results. If you don't have the right mind-set for weight loss, therefore, you will always struggle.
This is the foundation of all weight loss success. However it is, unfortunately, hugely neglected to the detriment of the majority of dieters and anyone trying to achieve permanent weight loss success. So, what can you do about this? Well, this is someone I'll look into in another article where you'll get some handy tips on how to make weight loss permanent.
