It can be hard to get to and stay at a healthy weight. It takes healthy eating and regular exercise. These can be hard changes to make. But you can help yourself succeed just by thinking that you can succeed. If you tell yourself negative things—”I can’t do this. Why bother?”—change will be harder. But if you encourage yourself with thoughts like “I can do this,” you can raise your odds of success.
With time and practice, you can change what you say to yourself. You can learn to think in a positive way even when you make a mistake.
