So how does one achieve the motivation to lose weight?

Emotion is a very strong part of achieving motivation.  Ways of directing your emotions to achieve motivation to start losing weight and to start to change your way of life and eating behaviour are listed here:

• Before you can change your behaviour, you have to turn any negative thoughts into positive ones. So remember the famous old saying “The Power of Positive Thinking”. Weight loss motivation will come to you through positive thoughts and feelings.
• Another way to achieve the motivation to start a new healthy way of life which will result in weight loss, is to look for role models, whether it be in the media or through reading positive literature.  One can look at a role model and think “I can do that”.  Even imitating a role model’s behaviour will achieve weight loss motivation.
• Recognise your feelings of optimism, and how much you are looking forward to losing weight.
• A feeling of happiness and excitement will turn into motivation to lose weight if you use your imagination, and think of what benefits weight loss will have for you.  Motivational thoughts can be of how enjoyable buying new clothes will be, or all of the different activities which will come through weight loss.
