I’m going to date myself here.
I vividly remember when running as a form of exercise started to become popular in the mid 1970s.
And it was downright weird.
In the rural community where I grew up, it was startling to see someone running down the side of the highway—particularly if the person turned out to be one of your parents.
It was absolutely mortifying.
Now, running is commonplace. Hip even.
The women I work with often think they hate exercise because they think it means they have to take up running.
My advice is to find the way of moving your body that you love.
What keeps you from doing this?
Often it’s fear that someone will think you are weird.
Most women will not even dance around their kitchen or living room because they are afraid their partner or children will think they are strange.
If this is you, I’ve got some tough love for you.
So what?
And here in lies the key of why you are stuck in the rebound weight-gain cycle.
As long as you are living your life based on the fear of what someone “might” think about you, you are not free.
And it’s not the other people that need to change and stop judging you.
You have to get to the point where you don’t care what they think.
Easier said than done, I know.
Chances are, the core of what is going on is you think you have to be perfect to be lovable.
You are setting yourself up for an impossible task because everyone’s definition of perfect is different.
The only way you can succeed is if you accept that perfection means “unique unto itself, unlike any other.”
And that means doing your unique dance around the living room, not only as a means to help you meet your goal of releasing the weight, but because it is fun . . . for you!
Or maybe it means taking that dance class, or picking up the hula hoop again, or jumping rope—or whatever way of moving your body is fun . . . for you.
Sure people might think your weird at first, but just wait until they start seeing the results.
Then they will be asking you to teach them how to hula hoop!
Your body is meant to move—and it’s supposed to be fun! What unique and fun way can you move your body today?
Together we can do it!
