Getting to the root cause of weight gain

When it comes to losing weight, people are often looking for a quick fix:
- "I will no longer eat sugar or refined cereals."
- "I will only eat 1200 calories per day."
- "I will only eat between 12 and 7 PM."
- ... and so on.

Sadly, the solution to reaching and maintaining an optimal weight is more nuanced than that. Restrictive diets can be too temporary, often leaving you in a worse place than you were before starting them.

To get fit and healthy, you must fix your eating habits and eat in response to physiological hunger.

People are not getting fat because of the occasional pizza, burger, or cookie. The real culprit is that overeating has become very easy because of the increasingly stressful environments and the rise of convenience foods. Many people have gotten disconnected from their body signals and eat for different reasons (boredom, distraction, stress, loneliness, etc. ).
