Words Matter

So, how many times a day do you think to yourself, 'I'd really like to lose some weight.' Or when someone offers you a bagel and cream cheese, how often do you say, "No, I'm trying to cut back." Or when someone asks you what you're doing tonight, you respond, "I hope to go work out."

Well, I'd like to be the Queen of England, I've been trying to be a nicer person for years (my sister can tell you how well that's working for me), and I hope that I'll win the lottery!

Try this on for size. I am going to lose weight. Feel different? I am cutting back. I am going to the gym.

Words matter. Choose the ones that serve you, not the ones that perpetuate your struggle.
