If you are still struggling with your weight and your eating, I’ll bet you have a vision about what it will be like when you get ‘there’.
When you get that number on the scale.
Or that size jeans.
Or maybe it’s just the lack of struggle that you wish for.
And I’ll bet that your vision of life ‘after’ weight loss involves some rainbows, beautiful kittens and unicorns, right?
After all, if losing the extra weight is your goal for SO many years, and you finally get there, life should be pretty sweet.
Here’s the reality:
Yes, it’s wonderful to achieve your goal.
It’s amazing to feel proud of changing your thinking to change your eating and actually reach your goal.
But there is another change that has to happen.
And that is your identity.
Your self-image.
It takes work to let your self-image catch up with the changes in your body.
In order to feel comfortable in who you are, the inside and the outside have to match.
And often, this doesn’t happen right away.
After weight loss, I don’t want you to slip-slide your way back to an old familiar problem. I want you to be moving ahead and find a new project to work on.
Nothing to do with weight and eating.
Should you still be learning and growing as a person, after you’ve reached your weight loss goals? Absolutely.
And that’s what we will talk about today.
