Mindful Eating For Lasting Weight-Loss: Surround Yourself with Mindful Moments for Long-Term Weight-Loss
by Simone Clark
Diets don't work for weight loss. Mindful eating does. Find out how, and get started right away. It is estimated that 45 million Americans go on a diet every year, yet most of those who manage to lose weight regain it in a matter of years. The diet industry thrives on our desire to lose weight, but ultimately, it does more to trim our finances than it does to trim our waistlines. The truth is that the more we diet, the more out of touch we become with our bodies. Every second we’re counting calories or banning food groups from our plates, we become less aware of what our body truly needs. And the irony is, it is only when we know what our body needs that we can lose weight in a realistic and sustainable way. So if diets don’t work; if calorie counting is a waste of time, how will we ever manage to reach our goal weight? The answer is mindful eating. This has become a bit of a buzz word in recent years, but that’s no reason to dismiss it. Mindful eating is the simple concept of being aware of what you’re eating and its relationship to your body, and it can change your whole world. Simply by understanding the mind-body connection and learning to differentiate between what you need and what you want, you can see serious health benefits and lose the extra weight for good--without ever going on a diet again.
