I found this article today https://tinybuddha.com/blog/how-i-lost-30-pounds-by-meditating-and-all-the-things-i-gained/ and saw your post from years ago.  I would also like to try what the author says to lose weight.  Essentially she used meditation to quiet her mind so that she can hear the thoughts that would improve her life and she acted on it.  Within some time of daily meditation, she was able to lose 30 lbs.  I have 80 lbs I would like to lose.

So I would meditate in the morning and follow up with a meditation in the evening and hopefully experience what she mentions and desire to meditate at night.  She used an interesting analogy of it being like learning how to ride a bike.

I’ve lost weight before by not thinking too much and just cutting out sugar and cooking my meals and drinking smoothies.  My monk friend says to walk every day and the weight will come off.

This is a dream goal I have and I would like to be accountable for progressing every day by making the best choices for me.

My boyfriend leaves for work early in the morning so I figured I will also leave early to get to the regional park and put in my daily walks that way because the gate is hard to open.

I also would like to experience the act of drinking more water because I don’t drink enough.

I also listen to the clutter fairy on youtube and I have a lot of things in my bedroom and garage that need to be sorted and disposed of.  I would like to accomplish that this month.  The best way to think of doing it is to do a box a day and put a time limit on it.  That was the clutter fairy’s latest youtube video was about figuring out how much time it will actually take to do it.

🙂 Thank you for this forum.
