You can get FAT from going on a diet
I you have got it all wrong by trying to lose weight, don’t worry, you are not alone. As funny as it may sound, some doctors, in a recent study, have shown that diets make you fat, yes, fat.
They found that after an initial weight drop, the participants put back all the weight again, which showed that, in the more than 30 diets, it only worked for a while.
You may be surprised that a major cause of diets to fail is due to our lifestyle and genetics, not only our state of mind.
You’re not always thinking straight when you get started as you are weak and low because your ashamed of your lack of control and you feel defeated because your eating has spiraled out of proportion.
Our minds control most things, but not here. Our metabolism is telling our body to gain weight, because our mind it telling our body something different, “you must diet”.
Right from the stone age, our bodies have been used to starvation, and nothing has changed. Their metabolism kicked in and tried to save the fat when they couldn?t find enough food to eat.
Today we eat, saturate our bodies and gain weight, and when we want to lose the fat, we diet. Our body and metabolism thinks that our diet is a famine, our body must be starving, so it’s trying to self-preserve by fighting to keep the fat.
Our body gets better and better at keeping the fat each time we diet. It learns save us from starvation by keeping the fat. Your body doesn’t know you are on a diet and it is learning to stay fat everytime you go on a diet, it’s only trying to save your life.
Can you lose any weight without going on a diet, because what’s the use, when we restrict our body, we just gain it again.
Modifying eating habits and not starving seems to be the lifestyle change we need.
