• Do you constantly tell yourself that you need to lose weight but just can’t get around to it?



• Do you ever lie to yourself and think that people should love you for you and not because of how big you are?

Now, of course, these are very strong physical dependencies. A lifestyle addiction would be classified as a psychological dependency. If would compare to “needing" your husband or wife when they leave you.

The Justification of a Lifestyle AdditionLet’s classify an addiction using these assumptions:

• An addiction is a “rut" that you can’t get out of (I just don’t have time)

• An addiction is a problem that you can’t change because of “willpower". (I just can’t seen to get motivated)

Face it. If you need to lose weight, but just can’t take the time to get around to it, you are addicted to your lifestyle. It’s an ugly way to look at it. After all, who wants to be grouped in the same group as crack addicts, alcoholics, psycho boyfriends, and the such.

Losing weight is a serious matter and it is about time you look at it that way. The shear fact that you might be having trouble doing it just reinforces this even more. Look, it’s your life and your journey.

So…what are you going to do?
