Proven Truth about Cant Lose Weight Myth

Hey if you're reading this it means you and I both have run up against that "cant lose weight myth", but we both chose to believe it. It wasn't our fault though, because our parents, friends, loved ones, co-workers and even people who didn't like us, were quick to tell us to give it up, you will never lose weight. Chances are if you were like me you started believing them at an early age, perhaps as early as 4 or 5.

On top of that if it was your child hood friends, they taunted you with sayings like "Fatty, Fatty, 2 By 4 you can't fit through the bathroom door. All of this because you were overweight and it didn't matter what you did, it seemed you couldn't get it off.

Stop believing right now that you cant lose weight. I'm here to tell you that it's a myth and you can lose weight I did.

A short while ago I weighed well over 220 pounds (I was small boned and only 5'6", had high blood pressure, borderline diabetic and my personal life was in a total melt down. I couldn't hold a job because of my health problems and the people I tried to work with were worse than children about me being overweight. I was the joke of the work place, so as soon as I couldn't take it anymore, I did my best to get laid off so I could collect unemployment or I just quit.

I did that one too many times and my family left me. Obviously I hit rock bottom then. I made up my mind I had to win them back and that's when I found out "you cant lose weight" was a myth.

Shortly thereafter I was watching the Dr. Phil show and he was talking to people just like you and me. You know the "fat ones". He told those folks they had to stop believing they couldn't lose weight. Right then is when I realized that was precisely what was stopping me. I believed I can't lose weight.

As I continued to listen to Dr Phil what he said made more and more sense. To make a long story short what he said was I had to believe I could lose weight and that I would have to change my lifestyle to accomplish my weight loss goals. The fact is I started that very day.

My first step was to go to my doctor and have him check me out to make sure I could start an exercise program without killing myself. Then I contacted a friend from my church and we became accountable to each other for each reprogramming our mind and reaching our weight loss goals.

Now here's the fun part, we began to challenge each other in our goals, changing our lifestyle (eating habits) and progressing from a slow walk to a faster walk. Today we are up to 3 miles in just under 36 minutes.

Was this easy? Heck No! But I have lost 53 pounds and my friend has lost 47 pounds. The important thing is we have gotten it off and kept it off for more than a year. I'm now working and my family has allowed me back into their life. Is everything rosy, no but it's a whole lot better than it was.

I'm living proof you cant lose weight is a myth. You need to search your mind, dig deep into your gut, get a plan together and stick to it.
