Deep Dive: Setting Target Weight → Mindset Shift
The Problem: Why Focusing on a Target Weight Backfires
Many people start their weight loss journey with a specific number in mind—"I need to lose 20kg" or "I must weigh X by summer." While goal-setting can feel important, fixating on a number can be counterproductive.
🚫 Common Pitfalls of Target Weight Fixation:
- Creates pressure and anxiety, making weight loss feel like a punishment.
- Ignores non-scale victories like improved energy, strength, and confidence.
- Leads to yo-yo dieting, as the focus is only on the short-term goal.
- Causes frustration and self-sabotage when progress slows down.
The reality? Your weight fluctuates daily due to hydration, hormones, and metabolism. A numbers-only focus can set you up for disappointment and burnout.
The Mind Works Weight Loss Course shifts the focus from an arbitrary number to long-term, sustainable change by developing a healthier mindset.
Why Traditional Approaches Fail
Most weight loss programs reinforce rigid weight goals, which can lead to unhealthy habits:
- Crash dieting to meet a target date.
- Dismissing small progress if the scale doesn’t move fast enough.
- Ignoring important health markers like sleep, stress, and strength.
- Feeling like a failure if a target weight isn’t reached, even if improvements have been made.
❌ Focusing on the scale alone takes away the joy of real progress.
✅ The Mind Works Course helps you develop a mindset that values sustainable habits over temporary results.
The Solution: A Mindset Shift for Sustainable Weight Loss
Instead of chasing a specific weight, focus on consistency, health, and self-improvement. Inside the course, we teach:
✅ How to track progress beyond the scale – Celebrate energy, mood, strength, and non-scale victories.
✅ Why mindset matters more than numbers – Learn how to stay committed without relying on willpower alone.
✅ How to embrace the process – Shift from “I have to lose weight” to “I’m building a healthier body.”
✅ Why flexibility is key – Understand that weight fluctuations are normal, and progress isn’t linear.
The course provides hypno-visualisation techniques to help rewire your brain for lasting success.
How to Apply This to Your Life
1️⃣ Reframe your goals – Instead of saying “I want to be X kg”, try “I want to feel stronger, healthier, and more energised.”
2️⃣ Track non-scale progress – Focus on sleep quality, stress levels, fitness, and mood instead of weight alone.
3️⃣ Adopt a growth mindset – See setbacks as learning opportunities, not failures.
4️⃣ Use course exercises – Guided visualisations will help reinforce this mindset shift at a subconscious level.
