Another difference between being and not being obese is the way the body works. It is very different!

When we start, we are motivated and enthusiastic. But we are also fragile and vulnerable, with doubts and uncertainties about whether or not we are capable of succeeding. We want to be and we think we are. But we don't have any real demonstration that we can yet, we don't have much to hold on to, just this motivation of ours.

Twelve bells, twelve raisins (or similar!), it's time to ask for "wishes for the new year".

The most common explanation for obesity is that obese people eat too much and spend too little, accumulating energy in the form of fat. Because he continues to eat more energy than he expends, he is unable to lose weight. And as long as you do, you will not be able to stop being obese.

Being obese has allowed me to see the world through the eyes of the overweight. Of those who are always ready to eat but not ready to exercise. Who is always hot and tight. Of those who constantly put off the changes they know they need to make.
