Rethinking


So now we get to the nitty-gritty of "Think Yourself Thin."  Taking your round reasons and eradicating them from your brain.  But first, you have to dig out of your brain the real reason (belief) which is causing your round yo-yo problem — up, down, up down until the yo-yo breaks under the strain.

For instance, some people's real reason (belief) for being round is the fear they won't be able to say "no" to advances from the opposite sex so they create a body that never has to face this issue.

Having no clue to what your real reason is because it could be anything, you will have to do the next two step process alone.

First step:

  • Write down all your reasons (rationalizations) you've told yourself or other people for being round.  For instance:

      I'm big boned
      I live to eat
      I like to cook and nibble at the same time
      It's part of my ancestry (genes)
      My sweet tooth is uncontrollable, etc.
  • Second step:

  • Now take your list of rationalizations and meditate (this means just concentrate) on each one.

    More than likely you will find most are just excuses.  They are the superficial reasons you've come up with to appease yourself and others for being round.

    What you are trying to find here is the underlying belief which is really causing you to stay round.

  • This means you are going to go back and dig out the "root" belief which makes you stay anchored to roundness.

    Like I said earlier, it could be something really simple like your parents or whomever instilling incorrect knowledge into your brain or as complex as a fear you'd have to face if you were thin.

    By figuring out what it is, you can look at your belief with "adult" eyes, know it isn't true and thus diminish it's power over you.  Only after the power is gone from this belief will you ever stop the yo-yo affect of lose weight, gain weight.

    Do not make the mistake of thinking this step isn't really important to "thinking yourself thin" because it is the MOST important.

    You have to know the belief
    causing your roundness.

    Otherwise, the next three chapters will only work short term and then you'll be where you started — a round yo-yo.
