Thin Beliefs


The difference between round and thin people
is the way they think
not what they put in their mouths.

Don't believe this statement look around the next time you are in a restaurant.  The thin people who have never been round in their life are eating just as much as you — maybe more.

So why do they stay thin?  They believe they can.  How many times have you heard a friend who is truly thin (and always has been) say —

I can eat whatever I like and never gain a pound!

Every time you've been around them I'll bet!

Yes I know you've heard them say this but it went right over your head or you thought to yourself "yeah right, you're just one of the lucky ones with the right metabolism."

Well guess what, you also have the same metabolism.  You just don't think you do or to be more exact — you don't believe you do.

For instance if you were kind of pudgy (as most children are), your parents, a favorite aunt or someone you looked up to when you were a child probably made the comment "if you don't watch it, you'll gain weight." 

Right then and there this "wrong opinion" became your belief because you "believed" what this person was saying had to be true.  Heck, you were a kid — what did you know!

So you went merrily on your way with the knowledge, you had to "watch it" or you would gain weight.  Well, if you didn't watch it as no kid would, you gained weight.  Which in turn, just firmed up this stupid belief.

So how did the thin person not develop this same belief?  More than likely they always heard, "you can eat anything you want and never gain a pound" and this became their belief.  So much so that when anybody asked "how do you stay so thin" they always repeated their belief out loud — something you as a round person never did.
