Thinking about your weight triggers a stress response that clouds your judgment. Jim Katsoulis explains why you need to calm down first, then build a real plan instead of chasing fad diets.
Does thinking about your weight stress you out? If you've been struggling to lose weight for a long time, at this point, just thinking about weight or weight loss is probably activating a stress response in you, and this makes it impossible to think calmly and clearly so that you can find a genuine solution that's going to work for you. The first step to losing weight and ultimately mastering it is to relax and calm down and start creating a systematic, strategic plan to master your weight instead of getting all stressed out and choosing the first crazy diet that you see.
