A Thought or Suggestion

[Guest guest]

Okay, so I've been reading this book called the " Attraction

Distraction. " I don't know if any of you have heard or read about

the Law of Attraction, but basically, it's the idea that we are what

we think about. We bring into our lifes that which we focus on most

fervently. So if you concentrate on money and your lack of it, then

you will continue to be short of cash. However, if you begin to

concentrate on making money or receiving money in the mail as opposed

to bills, then your money situation will start to improve. I know

it's a strange thought, but if you think about it, it works.

So if we apply this " Law of Attraction " to weight loss, how many of

us have stared in the mirror thinking to ourselves, " oh my gosh, I

look so fat " or " I've gained weight " and then started to panic? All

these intensely-negative bodily feelings about weight do is to

attract MORE FAT. Doesn't that make sense?

So I guess I have a challenge for everyone (myself included). For

the next week (and more, if you get positive results), focus on

feeling good about your body. As soon as a negative emotion enters

your mind, counter it with something positive. Get REALLY excited

that you will soon be at your ideal body weight. Muster up as much

positive emotion you can and see where it takes you. Sometimes I

think the problem with IE is that most of us don't believe we can eat

whatever we want and still lose the weight. Hence, we gain weight or

stay the same because that's what we believe should and will occur.

So try it! What could it hurt? Let's all get really happy and

excited about the prospect of getting to our goal weight and having

the body we've always wanted. See what it does for you.

And if you have the chance or the desire (or even some curiosity), I

highly recommend you look into the Law of Attraction and perhaps read

one of the books. Joe Vitale is excellent, and the book I am reading

now by is really great so far as well.

Happy eating, everyone!
