Weeks 38 & 39

I believe that thought processes and actions determine the difference between a 250-pound person and a 150-pound person. The trick is to pretend that you've obtained your goal weight - You need to think, eat and act like that person.

If I weighed 250 pounds I would handle my stress by overeating, wear baggy clothes, and go home and do everything but exercise. I'd think that getting to a goal weight was unobtainable and I probably wouldn't do anything about it.

Now, if I weighed 150 pounds, I'd be making some good decisions about healthy eating, wear stylish clothes and walk tall. Also, I'd have a workout plan from the moment I woke up and I'd follow through with it. I know this because that is how it was when I was thin.

As with anyone, old habits die hard. The first rule of breaking any bad habit is convincing yourself that you can do it and visualizing the results.
