The Power of Our Minds....

Options
This article has so much truth to it.... in reality we are in control.. and how we think will determine the outcome. Being morbidly obese my mind played alot of negative outcomes in my life. it is a battle to overcome the thoughts that kept me there.

    lol i had to go back to the article to see what book you were referring to lol... no not at all.

    The last few months have been a struggle, one might find that hard to believe after losing so much weight but circumstances brought me to a place where I now know I have alot more work to do on my old negative core beliefs.

    Many morbidly obese people have many issues to work through to attain and maintain weigh loss... weigh loss is not only just watching what you eat and exercise...our minds need a transformation too.... ignoring that part will only sabotage all efforts in the longs run...main reason why people fail and go back to old ways IMO.
