Plus what's the reason to come all the way to France for it?
These are definitely the most common questions I'm asked by women and men who want to fat.
After all, getting slimmer isn't really difficult, right?
We all know the theory - just consume less, exercise more... give it some time and perseverance and hey presto! You're done.
Unfortunately, even though it's simple... it's not necessarily easy.
The trouble is, most people attempt to get slimmer by willpower and dieting alone. In the long run, this is usually unsuccessful.
First, losing fat is hard work simply because your body is fighting against you to keep it
Telling a man or woman who's "dieting" to "be strong and just "say no" is akin to telling the tide not to come in - hunger is one of the most powerful urges we have.
At a weight loss boot camp all the support you need to refocus your mindset so weight loss no longer needs willpower can be made available to you in a setting where there is nothing to distract you and you can focus all your energy on the immediate task.
It's easy to realise why we need this "reprogramming": willpower is a manifestation of focused mental power, and just as you can't sprint forever or drive a car with the accelerator pressed down for long without wrecking the motor, you can't generally focus your willpower for long periods of time.
We benefit the most from exercising willpower when we can focus its power into short bursts where it'll do the most good - like saying "no" to dessert or cranking out the last rep in the gym.
So at a weight loss boot camp you'll uncover new tips, techniques, strategies and skills that will allow you to sidestep the common dead-end where you look ahead at the weight you have to shed over the next few months and think you're going to be ravenous for the whole time and convince yourself you'll never manage it.
Yes, you might have a long way to go and if that's so, there's no escaping that fact.
It always takes time, and it'll take longer the more fat you have to lose.
But that's no reason to feel down.
Why?
Because a good weight loss boot camp plan is created specifically to cut short the need for willpower almost completely.
So, to answer the second question: why France?
Well, the unique environment of France with the weather, the scenery and the fact you're out of your usual environment means it becomes possible to develop an exclusive luxury boutique weight loss Programme tailored individually for you.
And throughout your stay you'll be naturally reprogramming your unconscious to make sure you follow your eating plan and exercise regime without having to focus on it, not just while you're at the weight loss boot camp, but also after you return home (they'll become habitual, just like cleaning your teeth); in addition you'll have clear, measurable, realistic and reachable goals you can aim for without thinking - and this, perhaps surprisingly, is all by itself going to make your progress and ultimate success faster, easier and much more certain.
So that's why you should go to a weight loss boot camp so you can just relax, knowing you can and will achieve your goals if you stick to the Programme designed for you while you're there.
