I sincerely believe that genetics CAN be overcome.
Much more importantly, is that people BELIEVE they can.
I’m not saying 100% of the time.
But I AM saying a great deal of the time.
If you are struggling with your weight or losing fat, SOMETHING is causing it.
How much research and effort will it take to figure out what exactly is going on?
That is what it takes, unfortunately.
That’s what it took for me when I was ill, to get myself well again. And is what continues to keep me in a maintenance phase that both keeps my pain levels down, and my body fat at a steady, attractive and healthy level.
A friend of mine has a stubborn extra 10 pounds or so that she claims she simply cannot take off.
What I have found in fact, is that she has not explored all options.
She is largely stuck in “old school” thought, about how weight and fat loss is supposed to happen.
She takes rounds of antibiotics about once a year, and has for decades.
She has never experimented with gluten and/or grain elimination, nor does she understand what that all involves.
She is doing so much cardio/aerobics, that her metabolism has surely adjusted and is working hard to preserve body fat to compensate for her activity levels.
When we don’t continue to explore options, we too often “buy” ideas that are not ours, coming from alleged authorities, and settle with what we believe we may be “stuck” with.
I assure you: Life does not have to work like this.
Options exist.
Change CAN happen.
