What will it take for you to achieve the weight loss and health you really want? One of the things which prevents people losing weight is they don� �t believe they can have what they want. Or even, as individuals, they dont deserve what they want, they generally don� �t ask for it. You� �re not likely to get what you want until firstly, you determine what this is and then ask for it. There� �s a saying � �If you don� �t ask, you don� �t get� �. This holds true for many things in life and definitely plays a big part in your journey to successful weight loss.

When I start working with individuals to lose weight, I hear mainly all the things they don� �t want. One of the first steps is to turn this into what they do want.

� �I� �m quite happy to exercise more, but I don� �t enjoy doing it on my own.� �

� �I� �ve heard what you don� �t want, that you don� �t want to exercise on your own, now tell me what you do want.� �

� �I want someone to exercise with� �

� �Great, now you know what you want, we can work on achieving that.� �

Although this may not seem much of a difference, the main shift is that when you determine what you want, you start to look for ways to make this to happen. Whereas, when youre focusing on what you don� �t want, youre more likely to get stuck.
