WEBWIRE – Monday, November 18, 2013

Founder of www.designyourownlifestyle.com Karen Long, said the misinformation and rubbish people are buying into is keeping them overweight.

“Misinformation such as; it’s in your genes, it’s just big bones or slow metabolism as the underlying causes for being overweight will keep you overweight,” said Ms Long

“Have you ever opened a packet of chips or chocolate and only eaten one or two mouthfuls?”

”Have you ever sat down and eaten a whole bunch of bananas?”

“Unlike processed, packaged foods, raw or natural foods do not have the added chemicals in them to make you want to eat and eat and eat.”

“Taking control of your life and your weight are within your immediate grasp.”

“Solutions are out there for weight loss and firstly you must understand the cause at a deeper level.”

Ms Long said adapting your lifestyle is one of the keys to successful weight loss along with:

Changing your belief in myths otherwise this will keep you feeling helpless and hopeless.
Changing your belief in what is normal and embrace a new normal. Stop dreaming and wake up and do something about it.
Bigger issues in life not being addressed – eg doing a job that has no future in it, relationship problems to name a few
Clear vision – do you have a clear vision and goals you are working towards or are you treading water and going nowhere?

Ms Long said if you have a clear vision of what you want, nothing will stop you.

“Get clear on what you want and be willing to do whatever it takes.”

“As you create an upward spiral in one area of your life, you will start to see other areas of your life follow suit.”

“Choosing to live a life by design is not easy.”

“The quality of what you put into your mind, will determine the quality of the life you lead.”

“Make the decision that your life with absolutely change and commit 100 percent to making it happen.”

“Combine this with creating a roadmap to success by reading books on personal development and apply what you are reading to your life and tap into a community of people on a similar path.”

“We become the company we keep, so choose who you spend time with wisely.”

“Ask yourself, what is the cost if I don’t make a change now?”
