Diet & Fitness:
By John H. Sklare, Ed.D / February 20, 2012
I'd like to begin this Daily Reflection today by addressing the fourth most common issue that leads to diet disaster and weight-loss failure: Inner Control.
My Inner Diet research shows that this issue is a serious problem for 49% of all overweight people who are trying to shed pounds. Just as was true with Perfectionism, that's almost half of all overweight people, which suggests that if you're overweight and dieting, there's a good chance this issue is causing you some trouble.
So what exactly is Inner Control and how does it interfere with your ability to diet, lose weight and control your eating?
Inner Control is a measure of just how much authority you believe you have over your weight and what you eat. It's a measure of the strength of your willpower and the degree of your confidence.
Those who struggle with Inner Control express two primary negative beliefs about themselves. First, those who lack it don't believe that they can succeed at dieting and weight loss. Second, deep in their hearts, these people believe that, if they should lose weight, they lack the willpower and control it takes to keep that weight off!
The real danger in a belief system like this is that these beliefs alone can prevent you from ever succeeding at weight control. Wanting to control your eating, while at the same time believing that you can't, weakens you in a way that creates a kind of learned helplessness which leaves you feeling trapped and hopeless. The end result is that you eventually give up or don't start at all!Negative expectations have a way of getting directly in the way of success. Replacing those negative thoughts of inability with positive thoughts of capability is what people with Inner Control issues must do in order to succeed. It's very difficult, if not impossible, for you to be successful at weight control with that discouraging voice of self-doubt and inability constantly whispering into your ear. Unfortunately, this is what people with Inner Control issues face every single day.
So what can you do if this is an issue for you?
From a psychological perspective, there are four stages to strengthening your Inner Control: Awareness, Acceptance, Cognitive Restructuring and Developing Personal Control.
Since the key to change is awareness, you must first become aware that this is a problem for you.
The next step demands that you own this issue and accept that your lack of Inner Control is interfering with your ability to manage your eating and control your weight.
Third, you must actively challenge your self-defeating belief system by engaging in something like Cognitive Restructuring, for example. Cognitive Restructuring is a cognitive therapy technique that teaches you specifically how to refute negative, defeatist-oriented thinking and replace it with positive, achievement-oriented thinking. The heart of this theory is based on the self-fulfilling prophecy that I mentioned earlier… self-talk significantly influences performance.Fourth, you must practice this new thinking, in the real world, in order to develop more personal control over the health choices you make each day. In learning theory, putting this new thinking to work in the real world is called transfer.
One simple suggestion for strengthening your Inner Control is to simply reduce temptation. As much as this sounds like common sense, most people ignore this simple step. If Inner Control is an issue for you, remove all of the tempting foods from your home. If it isn't there, it simply can't be eaten.
Control Rewards are another effective method of increasing Inner Control. You can place a checkmark on a piece of paper every time you successfully resist a strong temptation to stray from your program. When you've accumulated ten checks (or whatever number makes sense to you), give yourself a reward. The reward can be anything enticing that you consider motivational and worth the effort (a new item of clothing, an hour at the spa or a movie, for example), but it cannot be food.
Addressing your lack of Inner Control directly will help you become a much wiser and stronger dieter, provide you with more self-confidence and increase your overall potential for success.

LaurenYou Decide!Madrid, Spain - Calender Party @ Kluster; Feb 5, 2012Stoked?Madrid, Spain - Calender Party @ Kluster; Feb 5, 2012Gay marriage bill heads to Maryland SenateApproval likely in upper chamber after House OK
By David Hill / The Washington Times / February 19, 2012
ANNAPOLIS -- Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley's same-sex marriage bill now moves to the state Senate, where floor debate could begin this week, after its narrow passage in the House.
The bill, which would make Maryland the eighth state along with the District to legalize gay marriage, appears to have majority support in the 47-member Senate, which passed the bill last year by a 25-21 vote.
After working furiously last week to gain several crucial votes in the House, supporters in the Senate will mainly have the task of protecting the support they already have.
"It's a bill we've heard before," said Sen. Brian E. Frosh, Montgomery Democrat and chairman of the Judicial Proceedings Committee, which is expected to vote the bill onto the floor this week. "I don't think the votes will change."
The bill passed the Senate during the 2011 General Assembly session, then failed in the House.
Mr. O'Malley, a Democrat, joined House Democratic leaders on Friday night to celebrate the chamber's 72-67 passage of the bill, which received one more than the necessary 71 votes.
The bill's passage ended nearly a year of speculation over whether it would have enough votes to pass the House, where many socially conservative Democrats opposed the bill and leading supporters said just weeks ago they were likely three votes short of passage.
The Senate version of the bill is expected to have an easier road, considering none of its 25 supporters from last year has publicly wavered on the issue.
The bill likely still has support from 24 of 35 Senate Democrats and one of 12 Republicans -- Sen. Allan H. Kittleman, Howard Republican.
The bill's Democratic opponents include Senate President Thomas V. Mike Miller Jr., Prince George's Democrat.
Mr. Frosh said his committee had delayed voting on the bill to gauge its progress in the House. The 11-member panel passed last year's gay-marriage bill by a 7-4 vote.
The committee typically votes on Thursdays, but could vote sooner at the chairman's request.
Opponents of the legislation appear resigned to it likely passing in the Senate and but have turned their focus to a repeal-referendum effort.
If the Senate passes the bill, that would give opponents the go-ahead to craft a petition and begin collecting signatures.
They would have until June 30 to collect 55,736 valid voter signatures to suspend the law from taking effect and force a November statewide vote on the issue.
Petition organizers would likely include many of the same GOP lawmakers who led last year's successful petition against the state's Dream Act, which would allow in-state tuition for many college-aged illegal immigrants.
"When we take this vote, we will be beginning a process, not ending a process," said House Minority Leader Anthony J. O'Donnell, Calvert Republican. "The citizens of Maryland will have the final say."Every gay and lesbian person who has been lucky enough to survive the turmoil of growing up is a survivor. Survivors always have an obligation to those who will face the same challenges."....JakeUrgent Notice: Our ObamaBiden2008 Group works hand - in - hand with Peckers PICS (Both groups were co-created to work with each-other).
