The Mayo Clinic Diet – The Healthy Approach to Weight Loss

Most of us know we should eat less and exercise more to lose weight. It’s a simple concept to understand. But if it were simple to implement, none of us would have an issue with our weight, and obesity would not be a national health concern. However, science has revealed that the ability to lose weight and maintain that loss is affected by a complex web of hundreds of physical, mental, and emotional factors.

But this course also will take you a step further as you learn how your thoughts and emotions affect your weight loss, including:

• determining whether or not this is the right time for you to start a weight-loss program

• how to identify your personal motivation to lose weight

• why perfectionism doesn’t work

• taking responsibility for determining which changes you’re willing to make and how you can modify the Diet’s suggestions to meet your goals

• identifying your weaknesses and triggers so you can adjust your plan accordingly

• the crucial interplay between guilt and forgiveness

• how to identify appropriate personal goals—short-term and long-term, outcome, and performance

Mayo Clinic experts know that people who start a weight-loss program are more likely to stick with it when they see fairly quick results. But they also know achieving and maintaining a healthy weight requires a long-term plan. That’s why The Mayo Clinic Diet has a two-part strategy: Lose It! is the initial two-week plan designed to give you a safe and healthy jump-start on your weight loss, and Live It! is a lifelong approach to help you meet and maintain your goal weight.
