  1. It’s NOT About the Food!

  2. What does “HEALTH” mean to YOU? • Being at a healthy BMI? • Having normal blood sugar without being on medications? • Having normal blood pressure or cholesterol without being on medications? • Being able to fit into those clothes in the back of the closet?

  3. Or could it Mean MORE???? • Could you dream about what you want your life to look like? • Feel like? • Who would be with you? • What would you be doing that you are not doing now? • What does “healthy” look like to you? • What does “having more energy” feel like to you?

  4. Yo-Yo Dieting vs TSFL • Dieting is about running away from something……I don’t want to be fat! • Dieting is about a short term goal that has little or no meaning……I want to weight 130 lbs • When it is all about losing weight, what happens when you get there????? • When you hit your destination, where do you go next? • 85% of people regain their weight!!!!!

  5. Where do YOU start to begin the journey to create health • Begin with allowing yourself to DREAM! • Find your WHY! • Intrinsic motivation! • Deep reason for losing weight and getting “healthy” • What most excites you?????

  6. It is NOT about “I should”, “I have to” “I aught to” • We all start at “dieting” • Are you ready to go to the next step to create success? • You don’t have to believe that you CAN do this, you just have to be ready, want it and be coachable!

  7. Dieting….you have a conflict (daughter getting married in 2 months and you HAVE to lose weight) • You have immense willpower and do the best you can do (I HAVE to do this this time!) • You loose a little weight (I did my best but I had so much stress and so many temptations and I couldn’t pass up that wine!)

  8. Wedding day comes (I did the best I could do and I am OK with that. I have a slow metabolism anyway!) • Wedding day passes and where is the goal? What happens to the weight? • You lost your destination! • There was no change of mindset! • There were no new healthy habits created! • Car analogy

  9. How about a NEW Path? • What is your WHY? Your PASSION? Deepest reason for being healthy? What rocks your world? • Allow yourself to dream about what you want • You may not be able to see that when you start or may not believe it is possible • Start with a small vision • Take the “not believing” out of the dream

  10. Quiet the Monkey Brain! • Your mind has FEAR! NEGATIVE THOUGHTS! NEGATIVE EMOTIONS! • SHAME! GUILT! DOUBT! • YOU CAN QUIET THESE THOUGHTS & QUIET THAT MONKEY BRAIN!

  11. Is what your head telling you true? Do you really believe it? • How about choosing NOT to listen, NOT to believe it, NOT to listen! • We all have stuff going on are you going to let that stuff control your life? • How about loving yourself! • Proverb….Be careful about what you think because your thoughts dictate your life!

  12. Do you find when you are in a good place you lose weight? • Do you find when you are in a bad place you gain weight? • You CAN choose to create your life instead of reacting to your thoughts and situations • You can listen to the voices in your head but are they speaking the truth? Which voices do you CHOOSE to listen to?

  13. Red Light vs Green Light Thoughts • Red light: You do not deserve this, you will always be fat, you cannot lose weight, you have a slow metabolism, no one loves you (food loves you), that pie will help you feel better, it’s only 1 glass of wine…….. I deserve it

  14. Green light: I deserve this healthy choice! I can reach my healthy goals! I can make healthy choices! I CAN do the things I WANT TO DO! What do I WANT?? • When we listen to our negative thoughts & believe them………spiral down!!!!! • That is an unhealthy mind! • Getting healthy starts with the baby steps to a healthy mind! • Listen to the Green light thoughts!

  15. Where do I start? • Make the decision you are ready to GET HEALTHY!!!!! • Connect with your health coach! • Allow yourself to dream! • Find YOUR WHY!!!!!! • Create a dream board. Pictures everywhere! Your phone, office, computer! • Be coachable! • Lone Rangers rarely succeed!

  16. Pull out your Habits of Health and Companion Guide and DVD • Discover Your Optimal Health by Dr. A • Use your support tools (Support calls, nutrition support, Nick!, Wellness Wednesday, peers, FB support page, My TSFL, become a coach)

  17. Meditation/Relaxation • P 314 H of H, lesson 17 • Quiet place • Close eyes, let go of tension, toes to head • Enjoy the relaxation…..turn off your thoughts or think of something relaxing • I am loved, deserving, calm • Envision the new you! • Use this tool when you are feeling stressed/red light thoughts

  18. Clear the Monkey Brain! • Quiet those red light thoughts! • P. 272 of H of H • Find your passion: hobby, arts, walking • Listen to music • Have a quiet place to go • Have your visuals of your WHY • Write down what is TRUE!!!!!

  19. Focus every day on the successes that you have had! • Take the focus off of the challenges! • Today is a new day, every 3 hours you start over! • Focus on what you want to create! Follow your health program and the weight coming off will be the bonus!
