These Things May be Holding You Back from Losing Weight

By Vito La Fata


Have you tried to lose weight but have found it difficult or even impossible? There are many things that can keep you from losing weight. Sometimes it is hard to uncover what those things are. They can be any of a number of different things.

Did you know that dealing with modern type stresses such as being unable to pay your mortgage can cause your body to release the same kind of chemicals that are released when you are in danger of starving to death or freezing to death? What this does is to tell your body that you need to hold onto fat in order to be as safe as possible. If you do not approach weight loss from the inside, you may miss those threats that affect you mentally and emotionally that keep you from losing weight.

One of those threats that may be keeping you fat is a fear of scarcity. If you are afraid that you are not going to have enough money, your body receives a message that resources may be scarce. Since food is the main resource that your body acknowledges, in the face of such a threat of scarcity, you may end up saving up fat.

Emotional obesity is another threat that may be keeping you in a state of being overweight. Without even realizing it you may have the mindset that carrying around extra weight keeps you safe. In fact, you may think that it helps you in other emotional ways. If this is true, then this may be a reason that you continue to be fat.

You may have an additional threat in the form of a mental threat. Are you starving mentally and emotionally? Are you seeking love or affection but are having trouble finding it? It is possible that this could be translating into overweight issues.

Dysfunctional Beliefs: If you believe that you were meant to be fat, or deserve to be fat, or if you view weight loss as impossible, then your body will obey by refusing to lose weight. Change your dysfunctional beliefs first and then weight loss will become simple.
