3 Key Ingredients For Long-Term Weight Loss

Almost every single day, I tell my husband or someone close to me, just howmuch I love coaching people. I love what I do so much, that if I had all the money in the world, I would still coach people to transform their bodies and lives.

One of the most miraculous events I observe as a coach is witnessing the externaland internal transformation people enjoy as they find love for themselves, joy for their shape, and the new found pride for who they are.

In looking at my clients who really seem to thrive, there are three characteristics that they ALL share. These are all things you can employ in your life to make your slimmingefforts even more effective:

1. Transformational self-talk.
Most new clients come to me with a war raging within their minds. A fierce battle of fat thoughts, self-loathing words, and painful messaging that seem to keep them locked in. Not all clients face negative self-talk, but majority do.Shifting negative self-talk to more positive chatter, is a must for my clients and it must be something you start working on. You can’t succeed long-term if your internal world is angry and self-destructive. You’ve got to work on your self-talk immediately. You’ve got to have a plan as to what to do each time you say something negative. Turning your thoughts around is essential or your weight will be regained. With practice, your positive thoughts will help you to transform your body. They go hand in-hand.

2. Dedication
Clients who soar, dedicate their time and focus toward slimming down. It’s not just something they “kinda-sorta” want to do, it’s something they just “Do”. The ultra-successful understand that their extra weight is keeping them from enjoying too many life gifts, which is making a massive impact of their quality of life. This helps them to make slimming down one of their top priorities. Dedication makes for success and avoids disappointment. Where’s your dedication right now. Have you been playing the “I want to slim down” record in your mind, but haven’t really done much about it, or are you focused each and every day to thinking, living and acting thin.

3. Have Fun
Clients seeing slam-dunk results have fun. Together, we laugh, we cry, we share and we create a bond that’s tight and so much fun. It’s fun to have the freedomto eat all the foods you desire, it’s fun to honor your body and it’s fun to get to thebottom of what’s been eating you. It may not be fun every second of your transformation, but by-in-large if you keep a positive attitude alive and well, you will forge ahead like a champ seeing awesome results. Having fun makes this journey one to be enjoyed forever.
