Thought control.
Many folks here are trying to lose weight effectively. Most are having trouble sticking with their diet and exercise routine. I’ve done a lot of thinking on this and have been wondering why I’m one of the few who has had success with losing weight. I know it’s because I’ve been adhering to my diet and exercise routine, but why have I been adhering to it? The answer lies in the fact that I have employed a technique I learned in overcoming suicidal depression and alcoholism. It’s called cognitive behavior therapy… or thought control. I learned this from a book called: “The Feeling Good Handbook”, by Dr. David Burns. The book is designed to deal with anxiety, depression and other mental disorders. While it isn’t specifically aimed at losing weight, the concept can certainly be used for any mental disorder including eating disorders. I’ve been able to overcome many adversities including diabetes and fibromyalgia by employing CBT.
