Love Yourself

I am tired of all the impractical weight loss guarantees and scams, aren't you? Admit it, proper diet and exercise is the only road that leads to fat loss -there are no shortcuts. Sensible weight-loss programmes have modest goals but the dramatic weight loss depicted in television shows is not viable. And, why the hullabaloo? Being plus size isn't that bad at all.

However, being healthy and loving you body is important (even for losing weight). Lauve Metcalfe, associate director of special projects for the Center for Physical Activity and Nutrition, University of Arizona, says sensible weight-loss programmes are rooted in self-esteem and positive body image. The expert identifies three areas essential to successful weight management: appetite - how you choose, cook and enjoy food; activity - how you move and engage in physical activity; attitude - how you deal with issues of self-esteem and barriers.

None of us might be 'Perfect' but by a program of self-improvement, we can make the most of what we have. So, all the ladies out there… check out the skills required to develop a healthy body image and self-esteem:

Skill 1 - Honour your personal story: Past events and experiences 'shape' one's perception of body image. Acknowledge your personal story and become more conscious of what choices you can control to improve the quality of your life.

Skill 2 - Accept yourself the way you are: Develop acceptance of your body image in the present form. Self-acceptance allows you to channel your energies into modifying behaviour, rather than struggling with negative thinking.

Skill 3 - Create a positive mental outlook: The attitude that you bring into a situation greatly determines the outcome. Whether you think you can or you think you can't, you are probably right.

Skill 4 - Practice positive self-talk skills: Positive self-talk messages will reinforce the qualities, skills and attributes within you, affect your unconscious mind and have a major effect on the way you view yourself.

Skill 5 - Guide away from comparisons: Beauty is a multi-dimensional combination of a variety of aspects of an individual that is in a constant state of change. Acknowledge your personal expressions of beauty that make you unique.

Skill 6 - Build your self-reliance: Each time you challenge yourself and attempt a task or skill that is outside of your comfort zone, you will experience a stronger degree of confidence in your abilities.

Skill 7 - Lighten up and live in the now: To fully enjoy life, stay in the present and experience life from moment to moment. Create a balanced perspective on life by looking to the future with anticipation, respecting the past for insight, and most important -living in the now.

Skill 8 - Reward yourself in healthy ways: Create rewards and positive incentives to keep you on track with your body image program. Develop daily, weekly and monthly incentives that recognize the effort you are putting into your personal wellness programme.

Skill 9 - Give yourself praise: Acknowledge the positive steps you make in taking care of yourself. Be open to the praise of others and regularly give and receive compliments.

Skill 10 - Develop coping skills to deal with setbacks: There are moments in all our lives that are difficult to deal with emotionally. By creating rest periods and occasional breaks in your program you will allow yourself time to be a 'human being' versus a 'human doing.'

Skill 11 - Be connected: Many people can help you stay on track with a healthy lifestyle. Value the role that supportive friends and relatives play in your life. Take time out on a regular basis to be in touch with nature and the environment

Signs to know partner cheating

Well, here's some help. We give you five visible signs to know if your partner is really cheating on you...

When you have been having less sex
This could be a tell tale sign that your guy is indulging in bed romps outside. However, another reason could be his porn addiction. Sudden drop in libido definitely indicates a serious underlying issue. Deal with it before it's too late.

When he gets too protective about his mobile phone
Is he avoiding calls in your presence or quickly replying to messages when he's with you? Reason could be that he wants to give you quality time, but make sure there's nothing more to it. If he's not comfortable in taking calls in your presence or prefers to move away from your audible/hearing range to catch up on a call, means there is something that he is trying to hide.

When he talks about someone from the opposite sex
When you meet someone new, you have a rush of emotions. You want to talk about that person with everyone. For obvious reasons, he will avoid that with you. But does he suddenly bring up someone in a conversation and then try to skirt it with other discussion?

When his friends act weird
Well, most of the friends will stay loyal to him and ensure that you are not let in to this secret. No matter how annoying it might get for you, the signs of guilt will be evident enough on their face.

When he disappears too much
Today he's out for team dinner; tomorrow he is packing off to a destination. And is this all happening in a pattern that seems too odd? Listen to the warning signs in your head.

Time to take control!
