Isn’t it better to lose weight by eating less and moving more? ! Do I have to spend money to see a doctor? In fact, "eat less and move more" is as deeply rooted in people's hearts as a mantra, but how can things in this world always go as planned? It would be great if weight loss was really that simple.
Not everyone can lose weight by eating less and exercising more. Some people may even lose weight and gain weight. The main reasons are:
1. Eating less and exercising more is actually very difficult to achieve! You must drastically change your original living habits, from enjoying delicious food to eating grass and starving yourself every meal; you have to exercise until you are sweating profusely, hot and tired, and then you can lose a little bit of weight. The important thing is that you don’t know if the weight lost is fat!
2. Even if you overcome the obstacles, you may still fail to lose weight! Because the source of obesity may be a real disease, only by finding the source problem can we completely improve it. Otherwise, we are just trying to deal with the disease. Our human body is so delicately balanced, and obesity is the “consequence” of imbalance or illness in certain aspects.
What diseases may cause obesity? Diabetes, hypothyroidism, growth hormone imbalance, male hormone deficiency, and even brain lesions may cause obesity. In addition, medications used to treat other diseases may also cause obesity, such as diabetes medications, high blood pressure medications, steroids, certain psychosomatic medications, etc. The cause of obesity is not just poor living habits. Therefore, we need to find out the root cause of our obesity through a doctor's diagnosis, actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, and coupled with the exercise prescription from a nutritionist and physical therapy, we can lose weight healthily and effectively.
