Weight loss |
Did you know that your self-esteem is a contributing factor to some of your problems?
We all know that losing weight is a billion dollar business a year, and who are the advertisers targeting?
Yes women!
In order to encourage women to join their weight loss plan, they focus on their fears in advertisements
You may have heard of the term “obesity exposure” recently.
Most women are ashamed and feel guilty if they only gain a few kilograms in one year
It is not surprising that they suffer from insecurity
Some tips to help you respect yourself and increase your self-confidence
1. Stop comparing yourself to others
It's so silly to try to be someone you're not, instead of trying to be someone other than you, you should ask yourself "What makes you stop it?" and set goals accordingly.
2. Do it for yourself, not for others
If you are following a new diet to lose weight, do it for yourself and not for others, do not be a source of pleasing to others and try to convince them to do so.
3. Don't measure your value by your dress size
What makes you unique is what truly values you. It is what you do with the talents that have been given to you that makes you valuable. It is important to use your talents for the benefit of others. This will increase your self-confidence as well.
4. Get rid of the (if only) mindset
Some women and men think that if you lose weight or get a new partner or a car or a house whatever, that will make you happy
Life is not like that. Joy comes from within and has nothing to do with any external appearances or opinions of others.
Lots of people after they have acquired all these things thought they would be happy but still not satisfied with their life and then they set their eyes on everything.
5. Work on your self-esteem to gain self-confidence
It is very important to work on your self-esteem or else people will push you.
The key is not to let any negative comments or talk affect you, assertiveness is not just about sticking to yourself but it differentiates TV advertising from what it is, to make you want to buy products.
I'm not saying you shouldn't diet to lose weight fast but you should do it for the right reasons
. The bottom line here is that lowering your self-esteem will undermine your system's plan.
