Slimming Clubs continued …

She was a member of a well-respected slimming club but had reached a plateau in her weight loss journey. Across the world there are well-established networks of clubs, run by experienced leaders who have successfully lost weight. I have to admit I am gold member of one of these clubs. So how does belonging to a slimming club fit in with using this product? Think about track 3, Iron Willpower. If we examine the six skills of willpower from the track and the book: • Determination • Motivation • Confidence • Focus • Tenacity • Mental toughness I have come to the conclusion (and from my own experiences) that slimming clubs provide several of these skills and allow participants to have the opportunity to learn and practice their willpower skills. We think that slimming clubs are all about the diet plan, but there is much more going on. By attending, you are gaining more confidence. You lose weight and receive praise from the leader and other members. You feel good about yourself. Your confidence in your own abilities grows. I think the main skill, however, that benefits from slimming club attendance is focus. Your mind can easily distract you from your purpose. It can tell you to ease up or stop trying for a while or start again next month. But if you are due to attend your slimming club next Monday … you’ll then be weighed. And your membership card will be stamped and your weight written down. These simple acts provide a laser-like focus onto your slimming plans. The attendance keeps your mind in the zone. This effect is even more pronounced if you have a slimming club buddy to attend with you. A competitive family member can be even better. It gives you an edge. You want to support your friend or family member but also to compete with them. And this is healthy competition! Back to my client. She needed to learn how to get her mind and emotions on track and to change her eating habits for good so she could continue to lose weight. Once she had done that, using hypnotherapy and energy therapies (EFT in this case), she could go back to her club and put it all into practice. She could rejoin her friends at the club and enjoy meetings while she lost weight. It became easy and enjoyable. She kept in touch with me. She told me that she was often ‘Slimmer of the Month’. All the issues that had been stopping her from being successful had been resolved. In her case there were no deep problems or things from the past that were holding her back. It was a simple case of behaviour change, dissolving the negative thinking that often frustrated her resolve and, finally, working at an emotional level to make losing weight fun, exciting, enjoyable … a wonderful adventure. If you like to attend a slimming club but you are struggling and need extra resources, this 12 track album will give you what you need to be successful. Nothing conflicts with any diet plan you may wish to follow. It is totally flexible. Your logical intelligent mind will help you to integrate the messages embedded in this program into your ongoing membership of your slimming club. And your willpower will be sky-high when you do this.
