There is nothing wrong with rewarding your child with ice cream or going to a fast food restaurant. However, psychologists warn: such “feeding” forms certain stereotypes of behavior in the baby and negatively affects physical and mental health. If with sweets and chocolate we “pave” for our children a direct path to the office of a pediatric dentist, then overeating and being overweight become the cause of psychological complexes. And even the operation does not help to solve the last problem.

Psychoanalysis blames the early childhood of overweight patients, since it is as children that they become "extremely depraved" with regard to "oral disorders".

With regard to intra-family relationships, we can identify one striking pattern, namely: obesity is significantly more likely to develop if a child was raised by a single mother. That is, overweight people in the family often do not have a father.

A study conducted in 1987 showed that parents often make such a child a "scapegoat". Relations in such families can rarely be called open, warm and cordial. True, there are also opposite cases when a child is pampered, and thereby “spoiled”. That is, we have two extremes, when a child receives "too little love" and "too much".

In the case of an "abundance of love", children are often rewarded by giving them sweets. Thus, adults develop certain stereotypes of behavior in their child, for example: "Everything that is put on the table must be eaten." Or they put hidden pressure on him: "If you eat, mommy will be happy." Or they try to induce imitative behavior in them: “Look, your brother has already eaten everything.”

It has been suggested that such imposed eating behavior may ultimately suppress the person's adequate physiological satiety response. External factors are also important - life events such as marriage, pregnancy or leaving work can affect nutritional self-control.

Aspects of the social psychology of obese people

The lack of a sense of security and the resulting social isolation among obese people is dominant. Sometimes among overweight people there is a false self-confidence, supported by internal fantasies that he is “the greatest” (the best, smartest), has “the strongest control over his emotions”, and so on. These fantasies are inevitably, again and again, broken by life, and appear again, creating a vicious circle.

Almost half a century ago, psychologists discovered that there is a direct link between being overweight and being overweight. The image of the “happy fat man” that took place in public opinion in the 1970s, say, in Germany, has now been replaced by the negative image of the fat man as “weak”, “stupid” and “nasty”. Women are more affected by these prejudices. It is also believed that overweight people show less interest in sex, this applies to both men and women.

A study of the social contacts of obese people showed that such contacts are much more limited compared to people with normal weight. Such people are convinced that few people love them, that few people give them practical support, for example, they can lend money. Overweight women report having much less contact with men than with women.

Psychological outcomes after surgical weight loss

Among scientists who have studied the results of weight loss, there is no complete similarity of opinion. There are serious positive changes in personality towards stabilization and greater openness. There are also positive changes in the emotional background, a decrease in feelings of helplessness, and so on.

On the other hand, there are reports of negative personality changes after surgery if the patient went for surgery for psychosocial reasons, and not for medical reasons. There are cases of negative long-term psychological effects of weight loss surgery. According to statistics, the psychological problems that patients had before the operation persist in almost half of the patients and appear two to three years after the operation.
This phenomenon is confirmed by research, on the basis of which a psychological "list of indications" was compiled. In other words, if a person did not have any special psychological problems before the operation, such a patient is more suitable for weight loss surgery.

Such contradictions are not surprising. For half of a person's life, a person has lived with a disturbed sense of self-confidence, if any. He constantly dreamed of a body that would be the subject of admiration, would be highly valued, or, in extreme cases, would be just ordinary. And suddenly a person realizes that there is a real way to fulfill his dream.

And then suddenly the question arises, and WHO, in fact, and FOR WHAT will be adored and highly appreciated? At best, external changes will help a person to change his behavior, or to understand that although appearance is important, “internal values” are equally important. In the worst case, the development of a healthy sense of self-confidence fails at all, and then a new vicious circle is formed.

This article is not about those who need to lose a couple of pounds. And not even about those who need to lose a couple of dozen of them. We will look at life from the side of those whose weight is "well over a hundred."

"You are fat!"

Fullness causes a lot of inconvenience in everyday life to its owners. These are problems with clothing, and problems with movement, excessive sweating, and movement in transport. Clothes for fat people (especially women) are more difficult to find, but are sold more expensive, public transport seats are designed mainly for slender people, and you need to buy stronger chairs.

This is not to mention the health problems that come with being overweight. Shortness of breath, problems with the cardiovascular system, high blood cholesterol, etc. - these are the consequences of excessive fullness.

But these are not the most "terrible" problems associated with high obesity. Much more often, fat people are brought to the hospital not by health problems due to excess weight, but by social complexes. Fat people are often ashamed of their fullness. They do not like their reflection in the mirror, they are embarrassed to undress on the beach or get acquainted with the opposite sex.

The constant fear of becoming the object of jokes and ridicule, or problems in their personal lives, make them starve for days, spend money on, or sit on all sorts of strict diets.

Often, such methods (due to the fact that they are done spontaneously, without consulting with specialists) do not bring the desired result. Which further exacerbates the psychological problems of obese people. In the West, fat people often become clients of psychologists and psychotherapists. In Russia and other countries of the former CIS, this practice is still not widespread, as a result, a person keeps all his problems and complexes in himself, which is even worse.

Why do people get fat?

Extreme cases of the fattest people on the planet are usually associated with endocrine system disorders in total with an indefatigable appetite and consumption of a huge amount of calories. According to statistics, the most obese people on the planet consume from 10,000 to 20,000 kcal per day, with a norm of 2000-3000 kcal. It is not strange that even after liposuction and stomach reduction operations, most of them quickly regain their previous weight due to their indefatigable appetite. Obesity is also often found among fast food lovers and.

Fat people usually lead an inactive lifestyle and / or have a sedentary job. A little physical activity contributes to a significant predominance of calories coming from the diet over those spent during the day. Such a diet and lifestyle slows down the metabolism, making fat gain even more accelerated.

Biographies of the fattest people on the planet

(1960-1994) - has the unofficial title of "the fattest man in history." According to some reports, the peak of her mass reached 727 kg with a height of 170 cm. Her weight at death (at the age of 34) was 544 kg. However, there is no reliable data documenting its record mass.

The fattest woman in history

Carol could not walk or stand on her own, so doctors, friends, and daughter Heather took care of her. According to Carol, she suffered from an insatiable appetite since childhood after experiencing sexual abuse. Although, in the future, she claimed in an interview that this was far from the only reason that determined her taste habits and, ultimately, her fate.

Famous nutritionists tried to treat her several times, but all attempts ended in failure. Yeager very often had to go to the hospital, which required the efforts of 15-20 firefighters for one hospitalization. Ultimately, the cause of death was several reasons at once: kidney failure, high blood sugar, and heart failure. Carol was buried in a private cemetery, the ceremony was attended by 90 friends and family members.

(1941-1983) - officially holds the title of "the fattest man on the planet" (Carol Yeager's weight has not been documented). He weighed 635 kg with a height of 185 cm in 1979. It took 13 people to just turn him over in bed. Minnoch suffered greatly from severe edema, which is inherent in all extremely overweight people - with a maximum weight in his body there was at least 400 kg of water!

John Minnoch is officially the fattest man in history.

Already at the age of 22, Minnoch weighed 181 kg. While he was still able to move around, John worked as a taxi driver. One of the hospitalizations allowed him to lose weight to 216 kg in 1981 (mainly due to fluid loss). However, in the same year, he was re-admitted to the hospital after gaining 91 kg in a week. Despite the efforts of doctors who treated him with a low-calorie diet, John passed away in 1983. His age at that time was 42 years. By the way, his wife Janet weighed only 50 kg.

The fattest man in the world

Mexican Manuel Uribe Garza(born in 1965) is listed in the Guinness Book of Records as "the fattest man in the world" (of the living). The peak of his weight reached 560 kg. According to him, he suffered from overweight in childhood, but the problem was far from global. By the age of 18, his weight was 121 kg.

In 1987, he moved from Mexico to Dallas (USA), where he got a job as an auto parts sales manager. The work was sedentary, and life was more than comfortable. This lifestyle led the already obese Manuel to the fact that he began to rapidly gain weight. At 30, his body weight was 245 kg. Realizing the global nature of the problem, Manuel turned to the doctors. He underwent liposuction and removed excess skin. As a result, he lost weight up to 160 kg.

Manuel Garza - former holder of the title "the fattest man in the world alive"

But, as a result of complications after the operation, the lymph nodes on his legs became inflamed and he was bedridden for three whole years. During this time, he recovered to 560 kg and got into the Guinness Book of Records. Currently, he is again engaged in weight loss (with the help of doctors, diet and elementary physical exercises) and has already lost weight to 300 kg. He lost weight thanks to a low-carbohydrate diet developed by physicians. According to his doctor, Manuel was lucky that he avoided diabetes, kidney or heart failure - typical diseases that affect very fat people. The doctor also assured that in 2 years Manuel will weigh "only" 150 kg.

G. Hopkins, who lived at the end of the 18th century in Wales, weighed 445 kg (according to the medical encyclopedia of the 19th century). He made a living performing at the fair. Hopkins was shown to the public in a stall next to the prize pigs, which were so fat that they could not stand up. The huge Welshman amazed everyone with his inhuman appetite and phenomenal body weight. One day, after a hearty meal, Hopkins tried to pick up a piece of food that suddenly fell on his cart. As a result, the fat man fell on a nursing sow, killed the poor animal and flattened her piglets like a herring. Through the efforts of 15 people managed to return it back to its place. This was done with great difficulty, since his stomach was so full of food that the skin on his stomach was tighter than on the drum, and no one could grab hold of his belly. Hopkins' weight (measured on a scale for weighing loaded wagons) was 445 kg. Unfortunately, his photo has not survived.

Joselina da Silva(1959-1996) - this Brazilian woman weighed 406 kg with a height of 160 cm. Like many overweight people, she began to gain weight as a child, eating huge amounts of pies, sweets and soda. She eventually became so heavy that it took the help of a dozen firefighters to keep her body clean. When her weight became known to the press, the local Chakara obese fitness center offered to help her lose weight in exchange for using the results of the weight loss program for promotional purposes.

Joselina Da Silva is another extreme weight gainer

Silva was subjected to surgery and a strict diet. As a result of liposuction and diet, she lost weight to 159 kg. However, a few months after the end of the program, she gained 90 kg. In September 1996, she was hospitalized and died in the hospital from bilateral pneumonia.

fat celebrities

Some fat people, despite their weight, succeeded in life and became famous. Moreover, they did it in a discipline that would seem to be incompatible with being overweight - sports.

Eric Butterbean Ash is a famous boxer and MMA fighter.

Eric "Butterbean" Ash. A boxer and a mixed-style fighter, with a height of 182 kg, weighs 170-200 kg (during the weigh-in, before the fight with Mariusz Pudzyanovsky, his weight could not be measured, because the scales, designed for a maximum of 200 kg, broke down). He spent 89 fights in the professional ring, of which he won 77. Despite the huge weight for a fighter, Butterbean has good manual speed and a strong knockout blow. Ash has now ended his boxing career, focusing on MMA performances.

Psychology of nutrition of fat and thin people.

Are you ready to learn the big secret: how naturally thin people who eat whatever they want manage not to add a single gram? The clue is discouragingly simple, but don't be fooled. This simplicity is probably the biggest difficulty you've ever encountered.

Learning the natural lean eating style is so difficult because it requires rethinking your relationship with food, nutrition, yourself as a person, and your own life. As you continue reading, try to look at everything through the eyes of a naturally thin person and notice how you feel about it.

When I studied naturally lean people, I found that they do four simple things that overweight people don't:

1. They don't eat until their bodies are HUNGRY.

2. They eat EXACTLY what they want, knowing for sure that it will fill them up.

3. They never indulge in unconscious eating; on the contrary, they ENJOY every bite and feel how food gradually satisfies hunger.

4. They stop eating as soon as they feel they have satisfied their need for food. Is it possible that the secret to natural slimness was so simple? At first I myself could not believe it and kept trying to find some other reasons. Maybe, I thought, the point is in what kind of food they eat, or in the peculiarities of their metabolism? However, further studies have shown that some naturally thin people have a high metabolic rate, while others have a slow one; someone eats only healthy food, and someone eats haphazardly; some have an early dinner, while others, on the contrary, are used to eating at night looking. Some of them quickly absorb food, while many eat slowly. In the end, I found out for sure that all those who are naturally thin in body have only a few eating habits in common: they eat only when their body feels HUNGRY, they eat EXACTLY WHAT they want to eat, enjoying every bite and feeling like their hunger gradually disappears, they stop taking it as soon as they feel that their body is no longer HUNGRY.

If you think about it, you begin to understand that this is how children and animals eat. THE HOW NATURALLY SLIM PEOPLE EAT IS THE MOST NATURAL APPROACH TO NUTRITION.

Let's take a closer look at each of these eating habits in turn and try to determine if there are any catches in them.

1. NATURALLY THIN PEOPLE ONLY EAT WHEN THEY ARE HUNGRY. It never occurs to them to eat just to delay the time before some unpleasant occupation for them, they do not try to eat their anxiety, which is so characteristic of fat people. Their life does not revolve around food, they do not consider it necessary to rush to the table just because the clock is lunchtime. It is from them, thin by nature, that one can hear: Oh! I was so busy that I forgot to eat! A fat man, on the other hand, can forget about food only in a dream or in an unconscious state. The thin ones do not think about it at all if they are not hungry. Food is not a problem or an event in their lives, because they initially allowed themselves to eat exactly what they want. Naturally slender people do not think to eat for the same reasons overweight people overeat. They will not eat up for the future, pushing into themselves more than their body needs. Food for them is only food, they do not try to replace it with love, comfort, sex, relaxation or friendship.

2. NATURALLY THIN PEOPLE EAT EXACTLY WHAT THEY WANT, EXACTLY WHAT WILL SATISFY THEIR HUNGER.

Unlike overweight, thin people use one small trick: before they sit down at the table, they always ask themselves what exactly they would like to eat now. They do not understand how they can deprive themselves of the food that will satisfy their hunger, just as they do not understand why they eat what they do not want. They first consult with their body and only then start eating. Naturally slender people do not think about what they should not eat, on the contrary, they ask their body what it would like. Sometimes it seems that they have an internal barometer from birth. Each time, he accurately points out the food that at the moment will not only be tastier for them, but will also best satisfy the needs of their body.

People who are thin by nature are usually very picky about food, they will never eat just for the sake of this process. They only eat because their internal barometer has signaled a desire to eat something in particular at the moment, and this happens only when they are hungry.

If the menu of a cafe or diner where a naturally thin person came to dine does not contain a dish that he would like to eat, he will go to another institution or take something purely symbolic, just to satisfy his hunger. These thin people sometimes do strange, from the point of view of a fat man, things: for example, they may not finish eating what is on their plate. If there is, say, meat, vegetables and fried potatoes, they will eat only what they want at the moment. For example, they can only taste meat and spinach and not touch a mound of mouth-watering french fries or mashed potatoes. Or they will refuse meat altogether, but they will eat a large portion of dessert with pleasure to the crumbs. Sometimes, being very busy or passionate about something, they can completely refuse to eat. So what? It is better to do something interesting or important instead of eating. THEY KNOW THAT IF THEY ARE HUNGRY THERE WILL ALWAYS BE FOOD.

And further. There's something that naturally slender people never do: they don't follow any diets. ONLY OVERWEIGHT PEOPLE ARE ON DIETS!

3. NATURALLY THIN PEOPLE EAT CONSCIOUSLY, ENJOYING EVERY PIECE OF FOOD, each time feeling how hunger is gradually satisfied. Since such people are always aware of what they are eating at the moment, and at the same time enjoy every bite of food, THEY ARE SATISFACTION WITH LESS FOOD AND GET MORE ENJOYMENT than those who are overweight.

A fat man never gets tired of eating, because he is used to thinking about anything at the table, except for the food that lies on his plate; he rarely tastes it until the moment it ends.

Always aware of what exactly they are eating, naturally thin people are able to accurately determine the moment when their body reaches a state no longer hungry. Most obese people, on the contrary, have no idea at all how hungry they are - neither before, nor during, nor after eating. Thin people by nature seem to be attuned to their body and accurately determine the moment when it is already full.

Moreover, thin people usually know little about the nutritional value of different foods. They usually don't know anything about diets, and the process of counting calories would certainly put them in a stupor. They, thin and slender from birth, know only four things: when they are hungry; what kind of food they want; that they will enjoy every bite, otherwise they will not touch the dish, and finally, that they will feel the moment when their body is satiated, and at the same moment they will stop eating. Basically, that's about all you need to know to start losing weight and change your Diet Mentality to the Naturally Thin Human Mindset.

4. NATURALLY SLIM PEOPLE STOP EATING AS SOON AS THEY FEEL THAT THEIR BODIES ARE NO LONGER HUNGRY. You may have had to deal with a situation more than once when someone tries to persuade you to eat more, although you are already full. So, naturally, a thin person will never succumb to such persuasion. He has a magic spell to deflect any attempts to force-feed him: Thank you, I'm already full. If the serving person continues to insist, the thin one will politely repeat this phrase over and over again. I am sure you have seen more than once how a naturally slender person in the middle of dinner in an expensive restaurant sets aside a plate with a half-eaten dish (which probably cost him a pretty penny) and at the same time does not feel guilt or embarrassment. You have probably watched more than once how a thin person leaves a couple of half-eaten pieces of meat on a plate or, having opened the refrigerator, takes out a package of juice, takes two sips and puts it back? Have you ever heard in response to the question why he left this wonderful steak: I'm already full, then we'll finish it? It seems to me that special boxes in which you can take a half-eaten dish out of a restaurant were invented exclusively for naturally thin customers. They are not useful for overweight people: they never leave uneaten what gets on their table. Naturally slender people don't care about membership in the clean plate club. Sometimes they happen to eat too much, but they immediately forget about it and will not reproach themselves for excess afterwards. They do not feel any reverence for food, perceiving it as their servant, and not as a mistress. Sometimes they simply ignore it, leaving it on their plate or even throwing away what they can't eat. Can a fat man imagine such blasphemy?!

Who are these people who have no idea how many calories are in a chocolate bar, nor why they are thin and never gain weight? Why are all thin people like this and how do they do it?

The answer is simple: they have no idea why they stay thin and do nothing about it. It's all about that. Slenderness and leanness are their natural state. We are those who are always doing something, as if trying to correct nature. In the fight for a slim figure, we have come up with thousands of myths and rules, we torture ourselves with diets that in the end only help us keep our extra pounds. Give up all this, and you will return to your natural state - a thin person by nature. Thin people are like wild animals in nature: they invariably follow the instincts of their body.

At the same time, it cannot be argued that the thin do not enjoy food. How else do they get it! Perhaps some of them enjoy it much more than we do, because they are able to taste every bite. I noticed that the first piece of ice cream in a waffle cone is always delicious, the second is less, and after the third I feel only cold in my mouth and almost no taste. If this cone is eaten by a naturally thin person, he, having ceased to feel the pleasure of delicacy, can throw away the half-eaten ice cream or put it in the freezer to finish eating later.

In the process of research, I was surprised to find that naturally thin people never use food as a reward. They reward themselves with other things. Indeed, to be effective, the reward must be something at least slightly out of the ordinary, such as going to the movies for an afternoon show or buying more expensive clothes. And food, what is food for them?! This is just what they satisfy their hunger, and nothing more. It would never occur to them to consider food as something unusual or desirable. It is natural for the thin to eat, how to breathe, and both of them are natural processes that support life, and nothing more.

Do naturally thin people eat if they feel unwell? And in this case, they simply ask themselves: Am I hungry or not?

Some naturally thin people even like to experience a slight feeling of hunger. It lasts no more than 20 seconds, and then disappears, returning after 20 minutes. Record the time when you are hungry.

It never occurs to naturally thin people to indulge in excesses in food alone, so that no one can see. They have nothing to be ashamed of and nothing to hide from others. In fact, they do just the opposite, preferring to eat in company - in a restaurant or at a party, they are likely to eat more than at home alone. For fat people, it's a real mystery how a naturally thin person can eat so much in one sitting and still remain slim. And there is no secret: he is probably very hungry now. Tomorrow he will only have a snack, that's all.

Naturally thin people tend to undereat rather than overeat, as fat people usually do, when they are very anxious or agitated. They do not know such therapy as eating emotions with a large amount of food. They respond to stress in a different way, such as constantly walking from corner to corner, sleeping longer than usual, or even going for a long walk. Or maybe they will just sit motionless, staring at one point. Intense anxiety drives the food out of their head rather than reminds them of it. They are too focused on what is bothering them to be distracted by food, the subject of their excitement is much more important than eating.

From this it does not follow at all that naturally slender people do not have any problems. The thing is, THEY NEVER ASSOCIATE THE PROBLEMS WITH FOOD. They treat food either neutrally - just as a fuel necessary for the functioning of the body, or as a friend. People prone to natural thinness do not experience fear that they will be deprived of food. And not only because they eat only what they feel the need for, but also because they strive to do things that will give them real pleasure.

The other day I read a book by Dr. Robert Schwartz called Diets Don't Work! The author's thoughts about diets and the process of losing weight completely coincide with mine, which I have already shared with you more than once. Therefore, I decided to briefly summarize the essence of the book in this post.

The main idea that he wants to convey. Many overweight people have a hard time believing this. But have you ever tried to feed a child who doesn't want to eat? What's happened? He was spitting out food! How does a child decide if he is hungry or not if he doesn't even know what time it is? He feels it!
But if a thin person lives inside everyone, then why is half of us struggling with being overweight? Yes, because we have allowed the "diet way of thinking" (or "diet mentality") to entangle us.

Have I confused you? :) Now about everything in order.

Diets are like a river of crocodiles.
Imagine that you are on the bank of a river infested with angry, hungry crocodiles. On the other side is a happy country,

where thin people live. Only a river separates you from your cherished goal. There are two hundred people in front of you. They jump into the river and the crocodiles immediately pounce on them. After a few tense minutes, the only survivor gets to the other side. She waves her hand to you and shouts: “Hey, get over! It's so great here!"
You are in the next group of two hundred people. Will you risk it? Probably not.
This river is the diet. You have to be crazy to throw yourself into it. However, we do it over and over again.

Statistics.
Out of 200 people who go on a diet, only 10 lose as much weight as they intended, and out of these ten, only one maintains the desired weight. Think about it: the percentage of “losers” is 99.5%. Over the past seventy years, more than 26,000 types of diets have come into vogue and have sunk into oblivion, and so far only one person in two hundred has been able to lose weight and keep fit with the help of a diet.

Twenty-five again, or what happens to the body during a diet.
When you go on a diet, you consume fewer calories than your body needs. You are losing weight. Then you return to your usual diet and, oh my God!, gain even more than you weighed before the diet. Why would? Yes, it's just that the body has decided that the food reserves on the planet have come to an end, and is trying to save you from starvation by slowing down metabolic processes. You go on another diet, history repeats itself. You begin to get angry at yourself for not being able to finish the job, but with each new diet you manage to lose less, and at the end of it you gain more and more. Why? Because when you resume normal eating, your metabolism not returns to its pre-dietary state.
One day, you discover that the pants you were wearing before you got into this diet fever are tight and you get depressed. All life begins to revolve around food, and weight loss becomes an obsession.
Conclusion: dieting to lose weight is like adding fuel to a fire in order to put it out. You use a method that doesn't work and then blame yourself for the lack of results.

Think at your leisure: What would the countless psychologists, doctors, dieters, diet business owners, and diet industry people be doing if someone told the world the secret that diets don't work?

What is the diet mentality.
Diets give rise to the so-called dietary way of thinking or diet mentality. We've developed a diet mentality because we've grown up in a society that believes diets work. Most people still think that the most important thing in weight loss is to go on a proper diet.
Remember: Everything that a human being is deprived of becomes his obsession.
Diets are meant to make you think less about food, but the exact opposite is happening. When we go on a diet to lose weight, we start thinking about food all the time. A key element in the diet mentality is the self-restraint mechanism that takes root in the brain of the dieter.
The diet mentality does not allow you to see that the cause of being overweight is overeating. Even if you admit that overeating is a source of excess weight, you will assume that the solution to the problem is to under-eat (starve).

We talked about people who are on diets. Now - about those who have never been on diets - naturally thin people.

What is the mentality of a thin person.
Have you ever asked skinny by nature why do they eat? They will most likely look at you like you are crazy and say, "I eat because I am hungry." It's extremely rare for you to get a response like this from overweight people. Overweight people use food to satisfy all other kinds of hunger—emotional, intellectual, even sexual. They crave something and are accustomed to replacing these desires with the desire to eat. The problem is that it is impossible to satisfy all desires with the help of food.
For thin people, food is a kind of fuel that is used for the normal functioning of the body. They don't associate food with problem solving. She does not mix physical and emotional hunger.

Studying thin people for a long time, the author comes to several conclusions.

Four facts:
- harmony is the natural state of everyone;
- You can also lose weight easily how to dial;
- thin people do four simple things that overweight people do not (more on them below), and never go on a diet;
- any of us can without effort and stress get thin and enjoy the process.

What is the way out
You can end the weight problem in your life once and for all by replacing the diet mentality mentality of a naturally evil person. You will enjoy joy, peace, the fullness of your life - everything that you could only dream of.
Start acting and thinking as if you are already naturally skinny. At first it will be unusual, but you can handle it!
Naturally thin people:
1) eat only when hungry;
It would not occur to thin people to combine sadness and buns, as overweight people often do. They don't think about food all the time. Food is just food. Food is not love, not rest, not sex, not friendship, etc.
2) eat only what they really want to eat;
3) enjoy every bite they put in their mouths;
Thin people eat consciously; they never suddenly find their hand at the bottom of an empty popcorn cup, wondering who ate the popcorn. Conscious eating is like driving a manual car: hard to learn at first, but once you get used to it, you don't think about shifting gears anymore.
4) stop eating as soon as they stop feeling hungry.

And this is how children and animals eat. This is the most natural approach to nutrition.

All that's left to do is start living to begin think like a naturally thin person The very first step towards this is to admit that you are used to overeating and knowingly gained weight for good reasons. You need to create conditions in which the naturally thin person inside you will feel safe and begin to manifest himself. Whatever happens, always think of yourself as the person you want to be—as a naturally thin person.
Get rid of the diet mentality and it will only be a matter of time before your body reflects your inner being. As soon as the new thinking of natural harmony becomes a habit, you will change outwardly.
