weight loss and hope

We hope for many things....health, happiness, financial success, our favorite team to win a championship, a great relationship, etc. Some of the things we hope for are completely out of our hands, some have a partial impact by our actions and others a much more direct relationship to our involvement.

As you are watching your favorite football team, you can wear your lucky jersey, perform your pregame ritual behaviors, which TV you will watch it on, etc, but sorry to say, what you do will not impact the very least on the results of the game.

Turning to health, happiness, personal relationships, there are many things we can do to impact on these. Certainly, maintaining a weight that makes us healthy and happy goes a long way in helping us achieve the things we hope for. When a food source appears that derails your ability to be healthier and happier, think of the concept of your hopes and dreams, and how the healthy weight will help you achieve the things you hope for...is that food source really worth it?
