IF YOUโRE new to Slimpods, or even if youโve been using one for some time, some of you may find you still have your diet heads on from time to time. So I thought I’d explain what happens when you’re on a diet and the way this conditioning might still be affecting you.
All the research shows that no matter what size you are, diets make you hungry and create powerful cravings for the very things youโre trying to avoid. As well as these cravings, dieters feel deprived and canโt understand why all around them they see other people eating the things they are denying themselves.
Itโs important not to deprive yourself; a little of what you fancy is good because then the brain will stop longing for it.
All movement
is exercise so
you don’t have
to go to the gym
to be more active
People who have been on a Slimpod for some time tell me the joy of it is that they only think about food when theyโre hungry, which is the way it should be. The Slimpod gives you control, youโre in charge of what goes in your mouth rather than it being in charge of you.
DIETS: Although they do produce results in the short term, very few dieters maintain their weight loss, no matter which diet they try. Dieting relies on willpower thatโs often strong at the start but then weakens.
This is why Slimpods are so effective; youโre not relying on your willpower because Slimpods gently re-educate your unconscious mind.
With a Slimpod, you’re
in control of what goes
in your mouth. Food’s
not in control of you
FOOD shouldnโt be treated as a bad thing, your mind has to see food for what it needs to be โ an enjoyable source of energy that is essential for your health and well-being.
Losing those unwanted inches shouldnโt be a race. Time doesnโt matter because itโs inevitable you will get there in the end. Everyone who’s been dieting falls off the wagon now and again, thatโs the way life works so keep calm about the occasional blip.
The truly great thing about Slimpods is that there’s no wagon to fall off. You can have the occasional treat without worrying about it.
EXERCISE is good and it doesnโt have to be a visit to the gym that boosts your metabolism. All movement is exercise and every little bit adds up. Look for the things that give your body a reason to use energy.
Thank you for joining the Slimpod family. As Trevor Silvester always says: Get used to smiling, youโll be doing a lot of it.
