<h3>Motivation For Weight Loss: Learn from the Japanese</h3>
<p>I want you to watch this video. If you are having any distraction at this moment, do not watch this video.Come back and watch when there is no distraction around you.<br />
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="640" height="385" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/L1hqHo6lyUU&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xd0d0d0&amp;hl=en_US&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="640" height="385" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/L1hqHo6lyUU&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xd0d0d0&amp;hl=en_US&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p><span id="more-869"></span>Few weeks back, I met up with one of my old client who has started with her weight loss program. She initially lost few kgs but then she decided to give up even before reaching her healthy weight range. She did not contact with me after a year. One day out of the blue she texted me and she told me that she has gained more than 10kgs. She told me that she really wanted to lose weight this time because she is getting married soon.</p>
<h3>I got a shocked&#8230;</h3>
<p>When I met up with her. Is because I almost cannot recognize her. She really put on a lot of weight. She told me that she is sad because she is now wearing her mom&#8217;s clothings and she couldn&#8217;t fit into her own clothings anymore. She said she missed to go shopping and to wear nice clothes.</p>
<h3>I then asked her&#8230;</h3>
<p>How is your eating lifestyle like for the past one year when you stopped your weight management program? I asked her, did you drink at least 2L of water every day or are you back to your old habits to drink lots of sweet drinks and snacks a lot of junkies? She shyly replied to me that she drinks a lot of sweet drinks, hardly drink plain water and her favorite is junkies.</p>
<h3>I asked her why she gave up to reach her healthy weight range</h3>
<p>She answered me that is because she does not have motivation and does cannot resist all the junkies. Colleagues always invite her for unhealthy breakfast to have frequent tea breaks. I asked her, is your colleagues paying for you? She said no.</p>
<h3>What we can learn from this lady?</h3>
<p>Her future husband is accompanying her to meet up with me. As I have spoken to him before, I can feel that he is very supportive her future wife&#8217;s weight loss action.But, she gave herself a lot of reasons not be healthy. Here is the list of reasons that she gave me:</p>
<ul>
<li>No motivation to lose weight</li>
<li>The junkies is too tempting and nice</li>
<li>A lot of delicious food around her office area</li>
<li>I just don&#8217;t like to drink plain water&#8230;it&#8217;s tasteless</li>
</ul>
<p>She is working with a reputable and big company in Malaysia. Just imagine one day, their organization implemented the same thing like what the Japanese government is doing (like in the video).. do you think by then she can afford to give herself reasons for not losing her weight? Do you think she will still says that junkies are nice and so tempting?</p>
<h3>She will not afford to give herself reasons if such rules is being implemented</h3>
<p>If she wants to keep her job with her company, she got to lose those excess weights and trim down the waist line just to fit the qualification of a fit employee. To be successful in losing weight, you really don&#8217;t need an on going motivation for your weight loss management program. What you need to have in your mindset is &#8220;WHY&#8221; you want to lose weight. When the &#8220;WHY&#8221; is very strong, you will not give yourself the reasons.</p>
<p>Like what is shown in the video. The &#8220;Why&#8221; is I need to lose weight in order for me to keep my job. I will need to eat healthy food, even though is tough, but I need to do it, because I really need a job. Job is so important to a lot of people because people have monthly and fixed commitments like housing loans, car loans, insurance, telephone bills and etc. We need a job to pay for our commitments.</p>
<p>When you are given just 2 options, to lose weight or to lose your job&#8230;which one will the individual person choose? Definitely it will be lose weight. People tends to be able to lose weight more successfully when they have no other options .</p>
<p>Have you ever wondered why air stewardess are not overweight? This is because from time to time, there will be a weighing session for all the air stewardess. If you are overweight, you will need to stop for a moment just to lose their weight in order for them to resume their work. It&#8217;s like a standard for them to have a healthy weight range.</p>
<h3>What is the Motivation For Weight Loss?</h3>
<p>Learn from the Japanese. You need to visualize and imagine that if the same thing happens to our country, there will be a lot of people are going to be out of job due to obesity. Are you going to start to take action and stop giving yourself unnecessary reasons to enjoy food?</p>
<h3>The Best Motivation For Weight Loss</h3>
<p>The best motivation for weight loss is about mindset. You will need to clearly define WHY you want to lose weight and the consequences of not losing those excess weight from your body. If you are not doing anything to lose those fats and weights, can you afford to pay a lot for your future medical expenses?</p>
<p>I find that this video is really useful and we should learn from the Japanese. I do hope that this video will help you in motivating you to lose weight.</p>
