100 Positive Weight Loss Affirmations To Help With Mindset

When it comes to weight loss, mindset is everything. This is where using positive weight loss affirmations can truly benefit your success.

I have personally struggled with my weight over the years. I’m an emotional eater who turns to sweets for comfort. 

I have never been extremely overweight, but as the years move on, I find it more challenging to stick with a weight I feel good about. 

I know exactly how to lose weight and yet it can be so difficult.

Enter positive weight loss affirmations.

What Are Positive Affirmations For Weight Loss?

Affirmations are positive statements you say to yourself. They are little phrases that we affirm. When it comes to weight loss, this positive self-talk can be an extremely powerful tool.

Weight loss affirmations can be used to:

• Give you a reminder of how you want to feel about yourself
• Provide support in difficult situations
• Replace negative beliefs with positive beliefs
• Boost confidence and motivation
• Set the right tone for the day
• Help you focus on your weight loss goals

Great – but do affirmations actually work?!

Yes, but…

Affirmations are a powerful tool to help with mindset, however, remember that they are a tool on your tool belt – one of many. Affirmations alone won’t fix a situation, but they can certainly be very helpful.

I personally find them to be very supportive in order to keep me on track, especially when used on a daily basis.

According to Healthline, 

“Regular repetition of affirming statements about yourself can encourage your brain to take these positive affirmations as fact. When you truly believe you can do something, your actions often follow.”

How To Use Weight Loss Affirmations

I personally like to look in the mirror and say them out loud to myself. It’s also beneficial to surround yourself with affirmations throughout your day…

• Be consistent by using these affirmations as part of your daily routine
• Find inspiration & customize. Use these weight loss affirmations as inspiration – but also customize them to make them your own affirmations
• Surround yourself with these affirmations. Use Post-it notes, write in your journal or planner, stretch them on paper, write them on your phone (and set them as your screen background)

Tips To Use Weight Loss Affirmations

Know Your Why

Affirmations work wonders but it’s also important to know your why. 

• Why do you want or need to lose weight? 
• Why is this important to you?
• How will being healthier change your life for the better?

Once you know your true why, using affirmations will feel more genuine. It also means you can use weight loss affirmations that support your why.

Consistency Is The Key

Consistency is critical when it comes to weight loss, whether it’s what you eat or how you think and feel. So use these positive weight loss affirmations daily and throughout your day. 

If you have a hard time remembering try adding a different affirmation as a reminder on your phone. Then when it pops up you can reflect on that affirmation.

Final Thoughts

I hope you found inspiration in these powerful weight loss affirmations. As mentioned, using positive affirmations are a tool you can use daily which will give you continuous support on this journey. 

Losing weight is so much about having the right mindset. So often we know how to lose weight yet, we don’t do it. We find excuses and always say ‘I’ll get started on Monday’.

Affirmations are one way to provide what you need to start today and work towards your healthy living goal on a daily basis.
