You will think I'm crazy but who remembers the Saturday Night Live (SNL) skit with Stuart Smalley?? Wow, I'm actually dating myself here. Let me remind you if you unable to recall. Stuart Smalley was a fictional character on SNL played by Al Franken who hosted a mock show called "Daily Affirmations with Stuart Smalley"; this skit was basically a spoof on people who were fanatical about the 12 step recovery programs for everything including alcohol, overeating, or anything addiction related. Al Franken was a real pisser on the show…despite the foolish shenanigans he got himself into, and the whole silly, new age, ridiculousness behind his "I'm good enough, smart enough, and Doggone it, people like me" quote to replace his feelings of shame and embarrassment to feelings of ‘everything will be ok', there is absolute truth behind the powers of affirmations.

I know, I know, you are like Syl…really, what are you high on? Haven't you ever wondered about affirmations? Affirmations are a key component to the goal of weight loss and the success of achieving that weight loss goal. Affirmations are defined as positive assertions ...
... or solemn oaths to achieve a particular goal. In essence, these are usually written or verbally stated declarations that are used to remind a person to do all the necessary actions to achieve a particular goal. And these declarations have to be repeated many times in order to impress on the subconscious mind. Hence, concerning your weight loss goal, it is important to have affirmations for it. Think of your mind as a computer with hardware and software built in and designed to allow you to reach your weight loss goals; the script you give your brain helps code your brain for this weight loss purpose which forms your behavior, habits, mental attitudes and actions and results. So how do you do this? Well, your conscious mind, meaning literally forcing yourself to think certain thoughts, starts the process and then the subconscious mind takes control, without you knowing it. Weight loss begins with your mental state, first and foremost!!! No questions. Now the more you repeat your affirmations, the quicker you will achieve your weight loss goals. I always say in my classes, it's mind over body.

Your next step is it journal your affirmations and say them to yourself every day, in the morning when you wake up and right before bed (in addition to expressing gratitude, prayers, etc – we won't get into all that…that's another article all on its own.)

Ok, tips to create and stick to affirmations:
1.Positivity, positivity, positivity! Never include negative words in your statements. Your mind doesn't recognize words like no, never, etc. So if you say something like: I do not want to be fat, your mind understands it as I want to be fat, omitting the word no.
2.Present tense statements only! Do not include words like should, will, have to, etc. Again, your brain does not recognize these words. Example: I should, or will, lose weight. Your subconscious recognizes this weight loss statement as something that will happen in the future and therefore will always remain in the future...guess what, if it remains in the future, you won't experience the joy of your weight loss goal's success now! Instead say something like: I have a fat-burning body.
3.Specific, Short, and sweet! The more detailed and specific you are with your weight loss goals, the more satisfied you will be once you achieve your weight loss goal. So don't just say I am thin, say, I am thin with a sexy, toned, lean body and I fit into size 4 clothing. Also keep it short and sweet; make it a statement you can memorize and never forget. I mean it wouldn't be cool if your lost your journal and all of your weight loss affirmations with it, right?
4.Believe it! You need to whole heartedly have faith that you are a winner and a true success. If you don't, that doubt lingers in your subconscious. The more you believe in your declarations, the greater your chance of success because you will, without knowing it, habitually work on your goals.
5.Practice makes perfect! This intention is never easy in the beginning; in fact, repeating these statements might seem really freakin' stupid. It's not! Trust me! The more you practice, the easier this habit becomes making more natural to do. Get out of your comfort zone.
6.Repeat them every day! I don't need to get into this; just do it! Create the habit now!
