We need to maintain Focus on our Behavior - - - - - - - (eating) rather than on Results - - - - - - - (weight-loss)
Our weight is not the problem. It’s our eating that’s the problem
My weight is not my problem. It’s one of the EFFECTS of my problem.
My problem is I eat more food than my body needs.
Not more than somebody else’s body needs.
More than MY body needs.
Not more than my body used to need when I was younger or more active.
More than my body needs NOW.
Not more than my body WOULD NEED IF I had different genes and metabolism.
More than my body needs with the genes and metabolism that I have.
That’s why there’s extra weight on it.
My above post reflects thoughts and attitudes that I've shared here at DietHobby over and over, and my words here contain a paraphrase of an online post I recently ran across by someone who quoted a UK addiction counselor, Gillian Riley. As a result of discovering that she appears to have an attitude quite similar to mine, I have purchased a Kindle edition of her latest book "Ditching Diets", and am checking out her website. Most of you know that ... as a part of my dieting hobby .... I read many, many diet books, and it is possible that after reading it, I might review it or share more of my thoughts about it.
