Why have you failed to lose weight?
You know by now that your journey will be full of triumphs and challenges.
Obstacles will distract you at every turn. The question is - why have you failed
to reach your goal? I think your failure may be related to your answers to these questions. Take an honest look and see what you think.
1. Do you want to lose weight enough to do what is hard?
2. Do you want to loss weight enough to make meaningful changes in your life?
3. Do you want to lose weight enough to face and heal your past?
4. Do you want to lose weight enough to end your toxic relationships?
5. Do you want to lose weight enough to change your opinion of who you think you are (from negative to positive)?
6. Do you want to lose weight enough to forgive yourself?
7. Do you want to lose weight enough to forgive others?
8. Do you want to lose weight enough to really get to know your deepest needs and wants?
9. Do you want to lose weight enough to really wake up and take charge of your life?
I imagine that you had at least some reaction to one or more of my questions. Which question really got to you? What do you think would happen in your life if you explored that question in depth? Think about it for a moment. Take an honest look and see what emerges. I am certain that something useful will appear.
