Losing Weight Requires Mind Over Matter

Visualizing myself slimmer and healthier worked, but it required a few other things

For 10+ years I have been trying to lose weight but when I look back, I don’t think I tried hard enough(?) In fact, should I have been trying so hard?

There were times, perhaps years that I skipped working out and eating right. However, recently I had an epiphany: The two times I’ve successfully lost weight, was not when I exercised, but when I began to think inwardly.

I visualized a slimmer, healthier me.

This past week, I have received several compliments and questions ranging from:

“What happened to your stomach? It’s gone!”

To, “Erica, you’re small!”

I did not get that small, just flattened the tummy and my face and neck are a bit slimmer.

Also, I did not jump on an expensive dieting fad or something maddening like eating nothing but grass- ick!

Here is the complete weight loss tips (click links for further breakdown of why)

• No matter what, drink plenty of water. I prefer Spring water over that ionized crap purified water.
