Often, weight loss clients will sabotage themselves just as they’re “thisclose” to reaching goal weight.
Why do they do this?
Because deep inside, they don’t really feel worthy of success.
The inner perception of being basically flawed, unlovable or outcast/different from those around them (i.e., when they are the only overweight or obese member of their family or within their social circle), influences their world view when it comes to making their lifestyle decisions.
People who don’t value themselves don’t make healthy choices.
And people who don’t value themselves also find the idea of being successful so at odds with their self-image that they sabotage themselves to keep from succeeding.
Why would a person put forth all the effort it takes to lose weight and then, just when the goal is in sight, do things to put him/herself on the slippery slope to where they started?
The answer is that sabotage is a clear signal that unresolved emotional issues need to be brought to light to achieve lasting success.
If a person doesn’t identify the part(s) of themselves that keeps getting in their own way, they’re doomed to keep repeating the same self-sabotaging behaviors.
