Food is Beautiful

Food appeals to more than just our sense of taste.

Have you noticed how beautiful it is?

Natural food that is.

A strawberry, apple, pear... they all look so gorgeous.

What does a crisp look like?
A Chip?
A sausage?
A slice of pizza with pepperoni all over it?

Why would you choose to eat such ugly things?

What about using feng shui with food? How about only eating that which is beautiful and needed? That would change your focus about eating and make you think about food differently.

Everything to do with food is in the mind. How about regarding it as a game and thinking that you will enjoy it but not obsess over it. How about letting it just be? How about forgetting about food?
So many people ruin their enjoyment of their own life over their constant worry about being fat.  How much time a day do you spend thinking about your weight? How much time a day do you spend talking about it? Do you have overweight friends who you can swap grumbles with? Do you deliberately choose friends who are fatter than you? Do you attend weight watchers or some other fat club where you can really focus on how fat you are? Do you spend time complaining that you cannot find nice clothes to fit you?

Does all of this make you feel better? Does it help you lose weight? Probably not.

Here's an idea.
Forget about your weight. Every time you think about your weight and start beating yourself up for being fat and out of shape - STOP. Think about your elbow instead. I am serious.  Thinking about your elbow is boring and you will soon get fed up but at least it is not damaging to your self esteem and your appreciation of the wonderful gift of life.

This is a fundamental key to losing weight. Stop focusing on it.
Try it.

I promise you, if you can do this, you will feel better and here's the sweetener - you will start to lose weight!
