While the nation fights the epidemic of obesity, there is so much misinformation, half truths, fad diets, and miracle weight loss products with tall and unrealistic weight loss claims! As a physician trained in the new field of obesity medicine, let me show you what works and what does not for weight loss!
Understand the cause of your weight gain in New York! While most people would think it is their overeating or lack of exercises for weight loss in New York(or combination of these), the real causes can be elsewhere such as the often ignored metabolic causes of weight gain such as insulin resistance.Focus not just on the body mass index, but also the distribution of the weight as certain distributions of the weight pose higher risk than others. For example, if you have weight mostly in the central or upper part of the body, the risks associated with obesity are much higher than otherwise!
Do not blame the victim or yourself for the weight gain as this only makes things worse, and in most situations, underlying causes of weight gain might be causing the eating patterns and not otherwise. This is because, if your body is insulin resistant, as up to 71 percent of the population are, then you go in to metabolic starvation despite having the excess body weight.
The old traditional thinking on weight loss as spread by the failed food pyramid may not be true as some of the things advocated by the food pyramid in fact contributed to the obesity epidemic in the name of helping! Specifically, the food pyramid put excess stress on carbohydrates in an effort to reduce fat. This lead to a new problem called insulin resistance which leads to weight gain as insulin is a body building hormone.
