The '50 percent rule' helped this woman lose 60 pounds (and keep it off). - NBCNewsBETTER
“I choose things to do in terms of my activities that resonate with a kind of way that makes me feel best,” Rose says.For most of her life, Rose had been overweight. Since the age of 12, she tried every diet — from Atkins to Weight Watchers, but nothing seemed to work. By her 20s, she had simply come to see herself as an overweight person.“It was embedded in my identity, how I related in the world, and how other people related to me,” she says.
Because Rose spent the majority of her life being overweight, she has had to spend the last decade learning to see herself as a healthy person. “I grew up looking at the world through this sense of this overweight kid, and always feeling really uncomfortable about that and insecure about it, so because [of that] I psychologically needed to transform how I related in the world as well,” she says.
She says routinely going to the gym and adopting habits like the 50 percent rule played a big role in learning to see herself as someone who values and enjoys a healthy lifestyle.“At the same time,” Rose adds, “it’s still a lot of work every day, but I don’t resent it because I enjoy the way I eat, I enjoy the exercises I do.”At every meal, make sure at least half your plate is filled with produce.
