Denial no more

No more excuses! There simply is no acceptable reason for me to not stick to a diet. It's all in changing my mindset.

Yes, there maybe valid reasons why it is harder to lose weight like my age and taking medications that promote weight gain. Yes, those are the truth. And they are reasons why it it harder. That is the truth of the situation. But they no longer are MY TRUTH.

MY TRUTH is the lie I have believed in the past that this it is the reason why I can not lose weight.

They no longer are excuses for why I can not lose weight. It may take longer and it may be harder to lose than when I was 18. I may have to scale back my expectations in terms of The Holy Grail. You know the goal weight, THE number....

I may have to scale back my expectations in terms of setting smaller goals to work to for weight loss. There is no shame is small goals. There is "shame" in no goals at all.

Without goals there will be no changes. Goals are the road map of change.

Contemplative focus:
Goals must never be from your ego, but from problems that cry for a solution.
