Why We Gain Weight
To discover why we gain weight, we must first acknowledge why we eat. We eat because food tastes good, because we are hungry. We eat to celebrate; we eat in times of stress. And sometimes we just eat because the food is 'there'. Why We Gain Weight 1. We may not be aware of how many calories are inside our daily diet. A quick solution to reap control over calorie-intake is to get calorie-smart by checking out food labels, requesting nutrition information while dining out and by choosing foods that are closest to their natural state. 2. We tend to gain weight when we ignore our Diet Conscience. It tries to warn us of Impending Diet Danger as it surfaces over the choppy Diet Seas, but often times 'The Reasons Why We Eat' override and drown our Diet Conscience. As a note, our Diet Conscience is that little warning light that triggers when we know OR think we are being Diet Bad. However, in some individuals, the light is broken and the individual may feel guilty when eating. Anorexia and Bulimia may ensure, requiring medical assistance asap in order to remedy. 3. We may gain weight when we decide to enjoy our food and worry about our diet tomorrow.....or later - but we keep postponing that thought until we gain so much weight that losing it appears an impossibility. The quickest solution to this weight gain problem is to ACT NOW to lose weight before the problem has time to grow into an even bigger problem. 4. We often gain weight when our personal lives are so askew that we can't possibly worry about another thing - especially dieting. Hidden Weight Gain Fact By ignoring our body's outcry to correct our eating habits we actually create more things to worry about such as: Am I fat? Do I look fat? I am embarrassed over my size! and That is what I used to look like. 5. "Here & There" Eating, often called 'grazing' may cause weight gain if we choose to graze like cattle rather than humans. By examining the reasons why we eat and why we gain weight, we can strive towards identifying and dealing with the issues that impact our personal diets. Healthy weight maintenance is a very challenging ambition indeed - but we can take solace in knowing that with a bit of elbow grease and knowledge, we can achieve a healthier body and a longer life. >Return to Thin Thin > Return to Weight Loss Advice Index > The I Hate Dieting Files |
