Do you want to lose weight permanently? The scientifically based mental strategy “WOOP” can help you to achieve your goals – be it the body for the summer or something else altogether. The secret is not to achieve your wishes only by positive thinking. In fact, with WOOP a realistic plan is forged that accompanies you step by step. The acronym stands for Wish, Obstacle, Outcome, and Plan.
With the help of the “WOOP” method you imagine for example firmly that you would like to lose a pounds, which is the wish. Junk food or sugary foods now represent your personal obstacle to achieving this goal. So you make a plan for yourself to eat very little of them or to stay away from them altogether and stick to healthy foods instead. While the unhealthy foods used to be classified by you as pure enjoyment, now their meaning has automatically changed for you. They are seen as a potential hurdle to achieving your goals, and you decide to eat little of it or not at all. It doesn’t take long and you automatically lose your desire for them. Sounds simple, doesn’t it? Why don’t you give it a try?
