Weight loss tip: progress pictures & a positive body image
Never underestimate the power of progress pictures - particularly if you're prone to fixating on your flaws.
Dedicating every ounce of energy to a diet destined for disaster can not only lead to the development of a distorted body image - you become fixated on the flaws that are a figment of your insecure imagination - but intensify the insecurities that stem from your lack of weight loss success - you consciously convince yourself that you're not creating the change that you strive for.
Instead of fixating on your 'failure' to banish a bloating belly, tone troublesome thighs or blast those bingo wings, capture the change that is being made on camera.
Although this simple solution won't eliminate your exaggerated psychological perception of your physique, it will prevent your paranoia from manifesting a mirror image of your body that resembles distorted negativity, and a lack of progress.
Top tip: our psychological perception of our physique is heavily influenced by our insecurities.
If we maintain a positive body image, we find it easier to become blinkered to our flaws in order to see change, but if we struggle not to succumb to the self loathing that stems from a negative body image, we psychologically beat ourselves up to the point where our paranoia overwhelms our ability to see progress.
