I am sure many of you can relate to this. Self-esteem & how it directly correlates to your exercise & food program. Many who have low self-esteem often don't feel good enough to deserve anything. They may resort to eating for comfort & escape. Also, low self-esteem stops you from trying new things or exercising for fear of others seeing you and/or making fun of you. It is the catch 22 of helping ourselves!
Diet Blog had a great article on how to help improve your self-esteem. The article outlines several points to help you thru this like:
- Stop comparing yourself to others
- Make positive contributions
- Lay off the negative self talk
Please read the article here & even if your self-esteem is fine, it is always good to read again & put them to use not only in your fitness program but other areas of your life.
