[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Food habits are a large cause of obesity. They are developed young. It’s pretty rare to see skinny kids with obese parents stay that way into adulthood. [/quote] I was the largest in my family, and I didn’t pick up bad habits from my parents. My mom always cooked from scratch, as do I. Most of the people in my family are of normal weight, except me. I have dieted my entire life, and the only way I lost weight was when I ate much less than the recommended amount. In college, I would work out for 3 hours/day and eat only rice — this got me down to about 125 lbs, but I quickly gained everything back when I eased up a bit (3 hour daily workouts are not sustainable in the long-term, nor is eating just rice.). An MD at Inova’s weight loss clinic suggested I eat 1200 calories/day, but that was not helping me lose weight — I needed to eat about 1000 calories/day, which is really hard to do when you rely solely on “willpower”. These WL meds help me to do that, plain and simple. [/quote]
