Mind over matter for weight loss goals

What do you think of the idea that weight loss has more to do with our state of mind than anything we are trying to do physically? It's the old "mind over matter" debate, which has introduced all kinds of books, research and other resources to help us get a better understanding of how we are impeding our own success by being mentally weak.

At ICanMakeYouThin.com, we see the author Paul McKenna marketing a book of the same name that claims that losing weight is a battle of the mind. The author seems to suggest that we need to change the way we think about our weight loss goals, namely by believing that we can accomplish the goals.

While there may be something to this way of thinking, many of us who have tried everything to lose weight with little success will attest to the fact that it really isn't all about the mind. We can try hard to succeed, but if we are not reducing our caloric intake and burning fat, we will get nowhere.

Maybe a potent all-natural supplement is in order.
