Sometimes people talk and talk and never gets to the point. You get annoyed, stressed and spend resources on nothing, at least it feels that way.
You think "Just do it!" because you cannot see any real result of what their doing. The problem here is two, you have not been clear about what methods should be used on your companies and the persons do not realize that they are annoying people.
To get a solution to this (thats annoying and stressing you), have a meeting with the person(s) that is the problem in your mind (it is sometimes a problem and sometimes not) and be clear about two things (that was the problems):
- The method you use at your company in producing the services or products.
- Everyone needs to understand the implications of their behaviour and often this is best explained in economic figures.
And remember, just do it

I have lost 48 kg the last three and a half years and I'm sure that more people need to loose weight,
every professional within different weight industries and almost everyone else knows this as well.
The problem is that what I found out its not what you eat, how much you work out or how many methods you use.
Its a matter of realizing and deciding "ok, this is it, I'm overweight and I will do what it takes to reach my goals"
Anyone heard of alcoholics (on AA) saying "Hi, my name is XXX and I am an alcoholic". Probably not since most of the meetings
are closed, but what Im after is that it is actually the same thing.
Having an eating disorder, no matter if it is making you overweight or underweight, is something that you need to
get into your head to figure out solutions for. Before someone says "But isnt bodybuilders or fitness freaks
having somekind of disorder as well" I would say that being out of control and in perfect shape is not great in some cases.
So here is how I got out of my eating disorder, which I now see that it had nothing to do with supermethods or eating grass or
running 150km a day.
- Talk with a professional (dont stop reading here, its ok to go to step 2)
I did this, at work we had help of occupational health company Boråshälsan, by talking to a nurse in a group therapy manor
It was a great time opening up both to people I knew and someone from outside my world
- Talk with supporting friends about your eating disorder and ask for their support
What you dont need is someone telling you what to do, what you need is support in the rollercoaster ride that weight loss or weight gain actually is.
You need someone that can be honest to you and remind you of your goal in a way that makes you work in the right direction again if you fall of the train
- Admit to your self, family and your friends that you actually have an eating disorder
You need to do this because it makes it so much easier to reach your goals. The most important to admit that there is a problem is your self.
- Start over each day and be prepared to fall of the train
Since this is not some method thats supposed to work in different steps, start over each day
Be prepared to fall of the train, it will happen, but remember that it is ok since you will start over each day to reach your goal
- Set up small goals where you give your self something for doing good
- Write a food and workout diary
Write down EVERYTHING you eat every day during a period of 10 weeks. This way you will be able to go back and see what makes you successfull
- Workout and do this when you want
Find a workout that fits you that you can do whenever its ok for you to do it.
Its doesnt have to be football or aerobics or something like that, its ok take a walk at lunch or doing 10 situps in the morning, as long as you start getting this into your life with working out.
- Learn whats in your food and learn that its fun to cook healthy
Read on the boxes when buying foods and ask someone you know (there is always several that knows this, and I know you know this as well)
Go cooking courses or cook with friends and family and have fun in the kitchen.
- Stop looking at the scales every ten minutes
It is normal that you change your weight during the day or between days, and it could be a stress factor looking at the scale to often. Once a week is enough
- Eat what you eat today, but learn how much normal is
Talk to a professional, look at internet/books or use the different applications that is available to learn how much normal intake is.
- Let it take time
If it will take years, let it take years. There is no fast way to weight success
- Be successfull and share your knowledge with others!
So, admit, decide, do it and be as successfull as possible!
If I can do this, I know you can!
