There are three types of people. Those who're quite contented to be couch potatoes, those who're unhappy with the excess weight but do nothing about it and those who KNOW that only way to weightloss, health & fitness is to TAKE ACTION.
Those who take action are the ones who usually have a mountain of self-confidence. They acknowledge they need to lose weight, set a goal to achieve the ideal weight and fitness, then go all out to get there - and they normally do.
I've seen too many overweight people convince themselves that they're unattractive or abnormal. I think that's a shame because it undermines their self-esteem.
The effect of this is a lack of self-confidence, self pity and depression. This is reflected by the social awkwardness shown by many people who percieve themselves as unattractive just because they're overweight.
Y'know what? That's nonsense! YOU'VE GOTTA LOVE YOURSELF FIRST! Sure, you could lose a few pounds but you're as good as anyone else.
HOW DO YOU TELL THIS TO THE WORLD?
1. TAKE ACTION. Get on a diet program. The mere fact that you're doing something about your weight is a morale booster by itself.
2. WALK TALL. Yes! improve your posture. Lose the slouch. It makes your stomach look higher than it really is. Raise your head and stick out your chest. Show your new confidence in your posture. If you were to hire someone, who would you choose? The skinny person with the loser slouch or the overweight person whose posture says he or she can take on the Incredible Hulk?
3. ACT CONFIDENT (EVEN IF YOU DON'T QUITE FEEL IT). Practice this often enough, and it'll become a habit. Your confidence must be reflected in your walk (brisk, firm strides),speech (clear voice, good vocabulary, NO self-depreciating words), as well as your body language (good posture, appropriate gestures, good eye contact). You should also start on an exercise program. In addition to the weightloss and health benefits, your confidence will hit the roof. There are some good ebooks on weightloss, health and fitness you can get which contain great fatburning programs.
4. DRESS NEATLY & APPROPRIATELY - ALWAYS. Take pride in your appearance. It's the first impression of you the other person will get before he or she even speaks to you. Wear solid colors and avoid stripes - particularly horizontal stripes and wear pants with flared bottoms.
5. MAKE SURE YOUR BODY ODOUR IS PLEASANT. Believe it or not most people decide whether they like you or not by your body odour more than anything else. Have you ever been complimented about your perfume or cologne by someone you don't even know? Most of us have.
The human body secrets pheromones which blend with our colognes or perfumes to attract men or attract women. Some people produce more than others so that explains why some are more successful in romance than others. Pheromones are known to cause those of the opposite sex to become more receptive - even flirtatious towards poeple they don't even know. The good news is you can now get pheromones in a bottle.
Man, I'm having a good time writing this article because this is one of my favorite topics. I think I'll quit at this point though, and leave some tidbits for my other articles.
Remember, love yourself and TAKE ACTION. Make your journey towards weightloss, health and fitness a rewarding and enjoyable one.
