Good Morning
This weeks Tuesday Tidbit is about why it is so difficult to change our eating habits. This great article in the Huffington post states "We are emotional beings with the ability to rationalize -- not rational beings with emotions. If we are stressed, depressed or addicted, no matter how good the advice we are given, chances are that we will not be able to act on it. The more primitive, emotional brain generally has precedence over the newer, more rational brain."
This does not mean that we need to give up responsibility for our health and fitness, but rather we need to be aware of these factors and look to the strategies of people who have been successful.
Here are 5 tips to help you loose weight
1) Focus on a change of heart, not a change of mind.
2) Practice self-discipline.
3) Eliminate or reduce sugary fat-laden foods.
4) Make history your teacher not your jailer.
5) Surround yourself with friends, family and colleagues who will support your efforts.
