A little motivation for the I-Know-What-To-Do-I-Just-Don't-Do-It crowd.

In today's edition we discuss how you can reframe your thoughts so that dieting and getting healthy doesn't have to feel like such a burden.

I'll be elaborating on how you can use these two simple steps, so you don't feel like you have the weight of the world on your shoulders as you try to get the weight of your body down to a healthy level.

1) Reframe your thoughts by changing the words you use about the situation. 2) Allow the change of thought to lead you to creative and pleasurable solutions.

Sound too vague to be useful? Tune in and you'll get some solid examples and advice.

Directed diets often get a bad rap, because of the yo-yo factor. But there are advantages to directed diets. Today's show focusing on ways to make directed diets work for you, if you decide that is the route you want to go.

There are two keys mentioned in the show to make any diet work for you.

1) write down your plan (for accountability) 2) have a time set aside each week for reassessment.

During the reassessment time you can adjust the diet, based on what did and didn't work for your lifestyle. Reassessment and then adjustment is imperative so you don't throw up your hands in wild abandonment of the diet, which of course is what causes the yo-yo affect.
