My self sabotage story

When it comes to health, lifestyle and weight loss, failure is more common than success stories.  As someone who has had the full spectrum of eating disorders and weight issues I know that I AM THE MOST EXPERT SELF SABOTEUR!  Just like an assassin who is expertly trained in numerous ways to kill his target; I was highly skilled in killing off my efforts to being a success! I have some amazing stories, well… excuses or lies, that I have told myself in the past as to why I should not exercise or why I deserved that chocolate, chips, wine etc.  Sometimes I have gone to great lengths to hide food and have even been disgusted in myself in relation to how much food I consumed during a binge.

I like to see the silver lining or humor in all of this and I hope that you can share and do the same.  I have decided to put my experiences down on paper and thought that it might be interesting to see what stories other people had.

If you have any interesting, funny or ridiculous stories about how you have sabotaged your own health or weight loss, we would love you to share your stories!

If your story is selected, you will receive a FULL MEMBER SUBSCRIPTION for 6 months to the Mind & Body Power online program valued at $167.70.

Please ensure you do use your real name and email below so we can contact you so you can receive your prize.

NB.  You can choose to fill out all of the questions or as many as you like.

NB.  You can also upload a video or audio either in addition to answering the questions in writing or just as your answer to the questions. Click here to upload your file.

I hope you have some fun with this and I really look forward to seeing the stories.  I can’t wait to read them all.  Good luck to all.

Kellee

When it comes to exercise, tell us the outrageous and bizarre JUSTIFICATIONS that you make yourself believe in order not to exercise.

This is the time when you have 2+ little voices inside your head arguing for all different sides of the argument, until the side against being active wins and the side for exercise lays dormant until the next time arises for the next debate – for or against….hmmmm!

About

The Mind & Body Program is the brainchild of psychologist and fitness coach Kellee Waters. It is a free resource offered to Australian familes to help combat the growing trend of obesity within the community.

Our sixteen week program targets obesity from a psychological foundation, with an individual and family perspective combining nutrition, activity and skill based education. Our holistic approach not only addresses the problems associated with weight gain and bad eating habits but also aspects such as a lack of motivation and activity, family stresses and a large array of additional problems with obesity for both adults and children.
