In the process of losing weight, breakdowns periodically occur, during which harmful foods are consumed. After a breakdown, a feeling of guilt, a feeling of one's own inefficiency and powerlessness torments. To avoid disruptions, you need to understand their causes.
Instructions
Step 1
The physiological cause of the breakdown is hunger. Too strict a diet, a sharp restriction in the number of calories and habitual tastes soon enough will cause a riot in the body. The riot will surely take place during the period of the natural lowering of blood sugar - at about 10-11 hours, at 15-16 hours and at about 23 hours. The fact is that after eating, the blood sugar level is increased for some time, so there is no feeling of hunger. After 2 hours, the sugar level decreases, so hunger reminds of itself. If something sweet was eaten in the main meal, then the sugar will decrease more sharply and the feeling of hunger will be stronger. Choose a balanced diet that is adequate for your current weight and energy expenditure.
Step 2
The psychological cause of the breakdown is the wrong motivation. Latent attitudes often interfere with losing weight. You can analyze these wrong beliefs on your own, without the help of a specialist. To do this, you need a deck of metaphorical cards.
Step 3
Metaphorical associative cards (abbreviated MAC) are pictures that depict people, situations, animals, abstractions. They represent attitudes, beliefs, values, anxieties, phobias, psychological splinters. Different people will see personal associations in the same picture, it all depends on mood and subconscious attitudes. These cards do not have universal interpretations for all, and each card at certain points in time by the same person can be perceived in different ways. There are a lot of metaphorical decks, you should choose those decks whose drawings respond to you, you should want to look at the cards and notice the details.
Step 4
So, how to use metaphorical cards for weight loss.
Step 5
Starting a diet, ask yourself the question: "What is my motivation? Why am I losing weight?" Take the cards and lay them face down on the table. Choose one card, turn over. Consider the image, capture the first impression, write it down in a notebook. How does the map image answer your question?
Step 6
In this picture, you can see the desire to be slim and fashionable (the bride is in a guipure dress for her figure), you can see the hidden fear of the world or the negative in relations with a particular man (the bride is the mouse, and the groom is the cat), or another option is the desire to lose weight in order to to become small, like a child, dexterous, and maybe even invisible (the mice are small, dexterous, they are not visible). You can draw out another card with the question "What should I do to have a result?" or "What prevents you from achieving the result?" The answers to these questions and all the thoughts that come to mind when looking at the cards should be written down in a notebook. Repeat this card exercise once a week or as needed and watch your answers and associations change. This will help you understand what limiting beliefs are stored in your subconscious mind, and you can work through them.
Step 7
For a start, it is enough to have one deck with pictures. Later, you can purchase a deck that combines pictures and phrases. With such tools, your weight loss will not only bring you beauty and health, but also become an interesting journey to yourself.
