Why is there fat where it is - and why when all efforts to lose it by rigidly following diets and being 'good' and even obsessing about food and doing vast amounts of exercise - if you have the energy - it is STILL THERE? Getting medical tests done will not help here as what is needed is a WELLNESS model - and medicine is more involved in crisis care. [u]Starting with the inside can mean the weight melts off. [/u] I have written the energy explanation for this in [i][b]'Helping Yourself to Health and Vitality[/b][/i]' found elsewhere on this site. Acupuncturists all talk about supporting normal and helping the body to help itself. Invariably the best ways are return to nature- no expenses - just living well with simple choices. [b]What stops this?[/b] The temperature of the food/liquids often - please see what I have written elsewhere about cold and what it does to mess with our body's wisdom. What else upsets the metabolism is the [u]invasion of far too much sugar [/u]- on all forms - especially as fruit and fruit juices.

Many people do not know actually what is obesity. A person whose weight is 20% or more above the normal weight is an obese person. Obesity is an excess proportion of total body fat. When you take in more calories than you burn off, you gain weight. How you eat, how active you are, and other things affect how your body uses calories and whether you gain weight. If your family members are obese, you may have inherited a tendency to gain weight. And your family also helps form your eating and lifestyle habits, which can lead to obesity.
