I have happily lost some weight over the last year. For the first time in years I no longer have a belly extending outward over my belt. How have I done it? Mainly by what I have, and have not, eaten. I eat meat, veggies, and fruit every day, and not much of anything else. I stay very active physically.
Mark Sisson has written a post today on ten psychological reasons you may not be losing unneeded weight. He goes into detail on each point, but I will just post his skeletal outline here.
You’ve Developed Poor Habits
You’re Afraid of Being a Social Pariah
You Still Fear Fat
You Eat for Comfort
You’re Stuck on What Worked at First Even Though It’s Not Working Anymore
You Think “Why Even Bother?”
You’re Embarrassed to Go to the Gym
You Think in Black and White/All or Nothing
You’re Depressed
You’re Constantly Comparing Yourself to Others
