Negative Self Talk
Let’s talk negative self talk.
Ever looked in the mirror and felt totally disgusted with what you saw?
Me too.
You proceed to:
+Pick yourself apart
+Threaten yourself with endless exercise
+Change your outfit 500 times
+Search quick fix and crash diets for immediate results
Or even worse
+Avoid social gatherings
+Avoid all pictures
+Bash yourself and your body in front of your kids and others who love you
Let’s think about this…would you EVER say to a friend the crap you say to yourself? Or how about to your son or your daughter?
Gosh, I hope not.
- Self sabotage
- Self pity
- Negative self talk
These are NOT action steps or solutions to the result you’re seeking.
*YOU deserve memories and stories with your friends and family
*YOU should be in all the pictures, because you just never know
*It is YOUR job to take responsibility for your health
*It is YOUR obligation to set the example for the little eyes looking up to you
Exercise is not punishment
Food is fuel
Don’t use those as threats or punishment to the person you see in the mirror or the number you see on the scale.
