I have witnessed people who have a crazy relationship with the size of the bathroom and weight charts. When I used to work for a weight-loss centers, weigh-in ritual often include shedding shoes, belts, and even the tiniest of earrings. A woman will even insist on taking off his pants. As I protested it was a public place and the men and children can walk in any moment he was unzipping down to his skivvies.
Chart a friend or enemy the size and weight of your bathroom? Even for those who successfully lose weight, or to an ideal weight, are often feelings of awe-inspiring and angst as they step size bathroom, and keeping a chart of weight is the farthest thing from their minds.
Important to calm our relationship with our bathroom scale and weight chart welcome a running tally of body weight on specific dates in our lives. This means calming our feelings about our weight and then reprogramming the message to us to judge ourselves according to how much we weigh any given day.
Normalizing our relations with the size of the bathroom and keeping a weight chart is important because, when used correctly, the size of the bathroom and weight charts can be a good indicator of whether (or how) we need to change our behavior.
The National Weight Control Registry (NWCR) is tracking more than 5,000 individuals who lost significant amounts of weight and kept it for long time periods. They evaluated the behavioral and mental characteristics of weight maintainers, as well as the strategies they use to maintain their weight loss.
One of the common denominators of their habits are the steps to the bathroom scale. In fact, 75% of participants weighed themselves at least once per week, and many stepped on their size bathroom every day.
To maintain an appropriate weight, I use the same strategy that I suspect many people using the NWCR. I see what I can get through in terms of calories pampering, and when the size of the bathroom starts tipping to the right, I rein it in and take off a few pounds.
But befriending the bathroom scale is not enough, as I said above, keeping a weekly chart of the weight is also important. People actually lose weight tend to convince themselves it into a plateau, that diet is not working, they should be doing more, etc..
Judy is an example. He lost 19 pounds in six months and now is an appropriate weight range. But he keeps telling himself (and group) he is not exercising enough (three times a week), he eats too much cake, and more. He actually say the words that I m losing weight when he had just got off the size of the bathroom and it falls to a half pound. Good solid, black-and-white evidence in the form of readings on the size of the bathroom and a chart of weight. Also good on a diet coach or support group to lend some insight.
The same is true of people gaining weight and convincing themselves it's just a few pounds and they have to worry about later. Seeing them in a bathroom size or weight charts, black and white in a range of time, can help. It could be only a few pounds. . . But when you see it in months or years, it can give you a reality check that may prompt you to make the decision to reverse the trend.
How often do you weigh?
When it comes to how often to step on the scale of the bathroom and make notations in your weight chart, the best advice I can give a coach of food, funny enough, is to tell people to do the opposite of what they are now doing. If you do not get the size of the bathroom or keep a chart of weight, then you should weigh once a day for a couple of months, and keep a day-to-day chart with weight it. This will help you get rejection if you are having and also give you a realistic picture of your change in weight due to salt intake, hormones, air travel, time of day, etc.
If you are getting the bathroom scale daily or even more than once a day, and keeping a fairly frequent weight chart, then it maybe time to take it back to once a week. Monitor and record your weight at the same time each week, but also a thorough inventory of your behavior last week. You must remember your regrets as well as your accomplishments about your diet and exercise regularly. In the big picture, the size of the bathroom and chart weight is only one piece of feedback.
If you inventory your behavior, and doing well, yet the number on the scale of the bathroom or the trend of your weight chart is disappointing, then try using the smart words of my client to Shirley: A numbers on the size of the bathroom is not a reflection of who I am, this is a reflection of who I used to. I'm a person who exercises regularly and eats right. I was at my goal weight. The numbers on the bathroom scale measures in the development of my body catching up with me now.

This isn’t about starving yourself, or exercising until you are dead.
ReplyDeleteIt is all about being aware what you put in your body, and what you
exert. Weight loss can be a struggle, but if you can manage your
calories in and calories out - you can overcome!

Obviously none of the healthy drinks can make us satisfy in place of water. But Green drink is essential too. As it contains essential vitamins which make us energetic and keeps us fit.
