Weight Loss: The Easy way


Do you want to lose weight?
Do you find diets don’t seem to work?
Does something inside you just seem to fight the changes you keep making?

What you need is a new way of looking at things and a new approach.

The first thing to know is weight gain is not your fault. Years of evolution during times when foods were scarce mean you are more likely to have ancestors that were good at eating lots of food when they found it. They ate so much it was stored as fat and then when times were difficult the fat was converted back to energy. You will also be tempted by lots of types of food as they help keep your diet in balance.

Most people also believe they eat when they are hungry and stop when they are full. Research shows this to be incorrect. Some people have brain damage and therefore don’t remember they just just eatten a meal 15 minutes ago. If you offer them a meal what happens? They will eat it. They don’t remember eating the meal and their body is not telling them they are full. What happens with a third meal? They will probably eat it. At some point they will notice their stomach “seems too small” but they won’t realise they are full because they won’t remember having eaten.

The current thinking on how are bodies deal with food is that we are like a leaking water barrel with a supply of water going in at the top and some water leading out through a split in the side. The water level inside the barrel is fixed as long as the water going in matches the water going out. If more water enters at the top then the presure of the water in the leak increases a bit and causes more water to come out but not as much as the water going in. So the water in the barrel starts to rise. Eventually a balance point is reached at a new higher level. If they water going in is then reduced the water presure is still high so water continues to leak out and the water level starts to drop. This happens quickly at the start but as the level of water going in and coming out starts to balance so the level of water dropping slows.

This last situation is the typical dieting senario. You reduce the amount you eat and lose a lot of weight. You gradually find it harder and harder to loose weight and you maintain it for a little while. Then you start to relax and increase your food a little and up goes your weight again.

The trick is to make changes in your food intake that you are happy with for life. If you want to stop eating chocolate I can help you. A better choice is that you can eat chocolate if you want to but you are not interested in doing so or you do and you find 3 pieces of chocolate more than enough.

If you want to lose weight and keep the weight off you need to feel comfortable at the size you plan to be (some people find the reaction of other people around them causes them not to like the new body size). You also need to be comfortable with the amount of food you are eating and the amount of energy you are burning.

Did you know exercise whilst being good for you tends not to help weight loss? Most people tend to end up having more soft drinks and food as a result of the exercise and therefore the energy lost overall tends not to be a great deal.
