Yummy cake

Last night I was 198.6. This is such an amazing feat for me. I am officially under 200 pounds and it feels liberating. While I still have a long way to go I feel like I can accomplish  anything. I started the fast metabolism diet again on Monday and the first two days were like riding a bike. I was swept right into it again and did great. I actually find it easier to eat on a plan because I know I'm giving my body the property nutrition and then I don't crave things that are not good for my body.
There is such emotional and mental component to this weight-loss journey. Mentally I literally have to envision myself at the weight I want. I tell myself that I am happily loving the life that I'm like living being 165 pounds and fitting into size 8 jeans by June 15, 2015. I see myself playing with the kids on the trampoline, going for a run with my friends, and looking amazingly attractive for my husband. I tried to tap into my emotions as well. I feel like it's going to feel, I try to  experience how confident and comfortable I am living my dream. I also envision greatly the amount of help I get to offer others who have been in my position and what satisfaction that gives me. For some reason The thought pops into my mind that I am starting a movement of emotional, mental and physical health. If you're sick in your body you give it health, you give it all that you can with proper food and exercise and supplements and maybe your body needs to see the doctor. If you have an unhealthy mind set you need to give it proper health. Limiting the words you say to yourself to only positive uplifting thoughts. Eliminating the word can't from your vocabulary because it never did anybody any good. Encouraging your mind to open up and expand to hire possibilities and expectations. And telling yourself that you can do it while also being physically accountable to somebody else. 
Emotionally feeling how it's going to feel when you reach your goal. This does not matter if it's financial, physical, or you're wanting to specifically target healthy emotions. When you focus your feelings on positive things and your goals you will overcome whatever is holding you back from achieving your dream. I am already experiencing that shift and change and I believe it's one of the biggest reasons that I've lost 28 pounds. 
Every body is different. The way you experience your weight-loss journey will be different than mine but the tools and principles that I've been using are universal I believe. Pick whatever program you want physically i.e. what food to put in your mouth and what exercise to do. Make sure that it gives you a very quick start to your weight loss so that you keep motivated and you can convince your mind to keep going. The slight edge principle is amazing that little by little we get to our goal, but it cannot be said enough that quick results motivate like a fire underneath you. Its helpful to give your mind a little bit of evidence to start with and then you let it run wild with the possibilities of awesome awesome success. Your emotions are happy an high, your cortisol levels are low because you're less stressed. I have so many people in my life who do not know how to handle stress properly. This is one of the biggest causes of health concerns today including weight. If we can manage our stress and focus on our goals through mind and emotions exercises our possibilities are endless. 
I believe strongly that everybody has a mission and goal in this life. If we let our bodies be bogged down by weight we are not living our full potential. You were put on this earth to help somebody else and to live a happy wonderful healthy life. This health journey that you embark on will be the catalyst to your amazing purpose filled life. Don't you want that? Do you want success in all areas of your life?  I am here to tell you that it is not beyond your reach. It is not beyond your reach to have all of the wonderful things you want. You can have your cake a eat it too. I want that for you but more importantly I want you to want that too. Remember you are worth it!!
