"Those fatties sure love their food" was a comment I overheard in a restaurant last week from a women sitting behind me as she glanced over to a table with an overweight family.
In fact, many of my overweight patients do not love their food... I think some of them hate their food. Here are the other 3 reasons why people may get fat.
Genes and Family History
Unfortunately, you can get more from your dad than his great sense of style -- you can inherit being overweight. Your chances of being overweight are greater if one or both of your parents are overweight. Genetic factors can determine how your body rations fat or thin.
Medicines
Modern medicine is astonishing and can extend lives and greatly increase quality of life.However, Some medicines can impact your weight.
Sleep Deprivation
Studies show there is a proven connection between weight and lack of sleep. People tell me they have tried everything to lose weight. I say, "Have you tried sleeping the pounds off?" With most Americans only getting 6 hours of sleep per night, this option is one thing you can do tonight to kick start your expedition to becoming healthy.
Fortunately, many of these obstacles you can overcome. Don't go quietly -- take action today for your survival tomorrow.
