Please know that at Now Care , we are not your typical Primary Care clinic. We truly believe in caring for the whole person spiritually emotionally, physically, and mentally. This is not mearly a " catchy" phrase. Please believe there ARE options for everyone to achieve intended weight loss. Enough of feeling like a failure because " your weak" or have " no will power". Most people are smart when it comes to,weight loss, & know they ultimately need to eat less, and exercise helps. The issues are often multifaceted for why weight loss is not achieved. I believe there are indeed mental, physical, emotional, environmental, even spiritual reasons for why we fail at weightloss attemps. Each factor is important and MUST be addressed, but the 1st factor that should be considered is the physical factor.
Think about it, your on a diet ( I bet it's on a Monday too). You have all of your healthy food and supplements that you just got at the natural store. You spent $ 1000 for a few vitamins and fancy sounding lettuce, and you have intentions to be good. Guess what, then you start getting hungry
Remember your stomach is a muscle and it gets bigger and smaller as you eat more. Also don't forget that our satiety is connected to our pleasure centers in our brains. Much like a drug addict needs more and more of the " fix" to get & maintain a high, this is often similar to an overweight person with good intentions and real hunger. In some ways it's actually harder to kick a bad food habit, then a drug habit. Think about it , food is absolutely everywhere, & really available. You can't just stop and go cold turkey with food.
What is troublesome, is in society even most weightloss programs, often directly or indirectly blame the person, or trying to " motivate or inspire" the person to" Just do it" Many overweight/obese, or others with other food disorders such as binging & purging have gone to Overeaters Annonoumous , and are told they overeat due to a character defect.
I believe that if your foot is fractured a crutch may be helpful. Yes, you can hop around on 1 foot, and it may over time get better, or you can use a crutch for a time to assist in the healing. I believe for many this is also true for weightloss. For many overweight people I believe the first factor that should be tended to is consuming less content and at the same time reduce hunger. It is nearly impossible that a drug addict in active addiction with a bowl of drugs in front of them won't touch them. Likewise, it should not be a reasonable expectation that a person for whatever reason has an expanded stomach pouch, and constant mental& physical queing hunger, and also emotional, social, spiritual, and mental factors of life to not eat.
