A lot of people are frustrated by weight loss affirmations because they just don’t seem to work. Imagine repeating all of these things on and on, but nothing around you actually changes. And then the awful feeling that the whole concept works, but not for you.
If you think, “This is sooo me!” then something’s not right in that picture…
What I was doing wrong in the past was arguing with my weight loss affirmations. I used to be that “Yes, but…” person. What’s more, I felt like the world’s biggest liar while reciting the things that were not true in reality and almost gave up.
But then I learned how to stop the mental argument in my mind, and it changed absolutely everything! I even got the answer to all my questions – a wonderful person that appeared in my life to support me and help me manifest. The only thing I had to do was to follow the answer!
I wanted an easy change to come quickly and be sustainable. And in two weeks, I started my journey that was and still is filled with ease, joy, pleasure, and delight.
Wouldn’t it be nice if you had a similar experience?
Then, tune in, and I’ll tell you the secret that actually makes affirmations work every single time!
Let’s dive in!
“Yeah, But…”
Dear Prosperity Seeker, today, I’m going to share how I reached my ideal weight with no struggle – just using affirmations.
I was 45 pounds overweight, and no matter what I did, it wasn’t sustainable. I was really tired of failing to lose weight, all the deprivation, and yo-yoing.
Affirmations like “This isn’t a diet. This is a lifestyle.” didn’t help me change the lifestyle. I tried other similar things, but nothing changed, which made me even more frustrated.
I was stuck in this vicious circle until I decided to test how powerful my mind is and to use affirmations the way they’re meant to be used.
Our mind often takes the “Yeah, but…” approach.
- I’m thin.
- Yeah, but you’re actually 45 pounds overweight.
- I eat healthy.
- Yeah, but you actually don’t.
You see, it creates arguments in our mind and a great sense of internal conflict, which is why we feel like we’re lying. We feel like we’re just kidding ourselves and not living in “reality.” That makes us even more frustrated, and eventually, we stop doing our affirmations.
So, the secret to making affirmations work is to stop arguing with them.
“Wouldn’t It Be Nice If…”
I was talking with a woman in her 60s, and she told me what she did to keep an ideal weight for much of her adult life. So, we came up with these four short and concise affirmations:
- I weigh 125 pounds.
- I eat healthy.
- My body is toned all over.
- My belly is flat.
I was supposed to repeat them throughout the day and watch what came in to support me after about two weeks.
I started saying the affirmations over and over to myself, all the time – in the shower, when getting dressed, while stuck in traffic… It was like a mantra.
When my mind would start the argument that none of that is true, I would say, Yeah, but wouldn’t it be nice if it was?
At that moment, the argument would stop because my mind didn’t have anything to fight. And I could get back into the new reality that I wanted to create through affirmations.
The simple question, Wouldn’t it be nice if… was just the linchpin I needed. That was the key to turn that actually unlocked the door and made affirmations so amazingly powerful!
What was really fascinating, as I continued to reply, wouldn’t it be nice if that were true? I found that my mind would return to my body’s food cravings with “Yeah, but I’m a healthy person. I eat healthy. So I’m not going to eat handfuls and handfuls of peanut M&Ms.”
Believe it or not, my body started accepting the reasoning, like, “Alright… let’s have some water instead!”
And it worked that way all the time. Before that, I really didn’t like weight training. But, because “my body was toned all over,” I wanted to get to the gym and start toning up my body.
The Answer Found Me
But the most incredible thing that happened was that a friend that I hadn’t talked to in about a year reached out to me. When we had had the last conversation, she was really frustrated because she was about 45 pounds overweight.
After a year, I got that “Oh my gosh, you came across my mind!” call. And the friend told me she lost 45 pounds and kept it off in an easy and fantastic way. What’s more, she said she became a health coach.
Can you imagine that?! About two weeks after I was running my affirmations, she turned up out of nowhere to tell me that she’s become a health coach!
Are you kidding!? I want a health coach! I want to lose weight, and I want the journey to be easy, fast, and fun! Her call literally answered all my questions.
However, it was quite a financial investment at the time. I remember thinking, Oh, I really don’t want to pay that much! But then I remembered that my affirmations brought the people and the programs to support me on my way to doing what I want.
So I decided to follow the answer I got. What was so amazing is as I did that, the money was there every month to make my payment for this program. And it was always easy and joyful to pay for.
It’s been years since I did that. It took me about a little over four months to drop 45 pounds, and I kept it off. Everything I wanted has happened – I weigh 125 pounds, I eat healthy, my body has toned all over, and my belly is flat.
Give It a Whirl
If this is something that you want to experience as well, try on this experiment yourself. Pick four affirmations – weight loss, money, whatever you want. Just ask yourself, Wouldn’t it be nice if this were true? when the argument happened.
So give it a whirl. I would love to know how it goes.
