Nutrition Within by Coach Awi

YOUR MIND is POWERFUL and it can set you in the right direction. Many people don’t consider that a positive mindset is crucial to weight loss success .

If you believe that ‘I can do this’ and ‘I will lose weight’ and then keep repeating these thoughts to yourself, your mind will direct your body to consistently take the actions that are necessary for success .

How? .

1⃣ IMPROVES YOUR DIETARY CHOICES! 🥗
-
A positive mindset helps you to approach your diet with empowering thoughts. Instead of thinking about what you cannot eat, you will think about the exciting foods and recipes you can have. You will also start to think about all the weight loss possibilities that will open up to you as a result of sticking to your plan .

2⃣ BOOST YOUR WORKOUT PERFORMANCE! 🏋
-
With a negative mindset, you’ll find that you dread every workout. But with a great mindset you will find yourself doing your best and this will accelerate your weight loss results and allow you to achieve your goals in the fastest possible time .

3⃣ ALLOWS YOU TO ENJOY THE JOURNEY! 😘
-
If you approach the journey with fun and optimism, your energy levels will be constantly high and you will enjoy your entire journey - you’ll look forward to doing new exercises, enjoy cooking up with new healthy recipes and have an amazing time losing weight .

4⃣ REDUCES THE IMPACT OF SETBACKS 💪🏻
-
No matter how much effort you put into losing weight, there will always be times when you fall of the wagon. If you don't have positive mindset, these setbacks can derail your weight loss efforts or even quit altogether .

As always, cheering you on!

I'll be the first to admit that the temptation to stay in bed for an extra hour is much greater especially on a weekend, even for a morning person fan like me.

But I believe that a morning routine has been practised and spoken by many successful people. If you can make a habit of doing an early workout over the next few weeks, before you know it, being active in the morning becomes a natural part of your daily routine, I believe that you’ll start to see changes with your body.

More importantly, you may start to feel more positive and productive throughout each day.

Managing weight effectively depends on calorie balance. It comes from both your calorie input through the food that we eat and also our calorie expenditure which comes from movement and exercise.

Most people overestimate that they burn 2-3 times more calories through exercise than they actually do, and they underestimate the calories they eat by anywhere from 20-40%.

So keep a check on your calories and remember a stroll around the park doesn’t justify eating a cheeseburger and overrewarding yourself.

It is about a balance!

Simon Sinek says to start with our why in charting our life or business direction. And for Melissa, it is her compassion to help the people in Cambodia come out of poverty and be of service that drives her to plant her roots there.

"I wouldn't say I found a strategy that works. Part of development is that you will never find THE answer or THE key to solving the problems. But you keep building on whatever that you have and it just keeps getting better. This is progress. And this is good." - Melissa.

In this episode, I had an enlightened conversation with Melissa where I learnt her heartbeat as a budding entrepreneur in Cambodia. I was keen to understand what keeps her going.

Melissa shares an insight into her thought processes and the influences that has guided through the years. One word stood out for me - Conviction. This intrinsic belief system will drive an individual's passion in achieving goals that has been set.
