"How you do one thing is how you do everything."
Well, here goes. My name is Lil and I've decided to commit to working through the book, The Four Day Win by Martha Beck, PhD. I picked up this book over a year ago and LOVED it! I read the whole book and did incorporate some of the exercises into my life and lost about 20 pounds (I was also doing Weight Watchers, but this clearly made the experience much easier than any other time I've dieted). Now, I want to really dig in and reach Thinner Peace, as Martha says.
This fabulous and very funny book is about changing your brain from the brain of a fat person to that of a naturally thin person. Dr. Beck (henceforth Martha on this blog!) goes deep into the neuroscience and psychology of obesity and chunks it down into very manageable four day exercises. Four days is the magic number to get started on changing any habit and you leverage this with rewards of your own choosing.
The reason I'm doing this is, of course, to become thin, but also to actually, finally, really DO the things I read about and think are wonderful. If anyone wants to join in, all the better!
