As a woman, you want to be comfortable in your skin before you flaunt
it to others and that comes with having the right body shape. However,
this so called "Perfect body" has taken on several
shades of meaning over the years. There was a time that celebrated a
woman's curves. A voluptuous figure with a heavy bust and wide hips was
considered attractive. It was also considered a sign of good health and
fertility. With the sexual revolution, the concept of the "perfect body"
has been inverted on its head. Thin and androgynous is the idealized
body shape. And, when thin is in, who would fall for the full-figured
hourglass look? That's one of the main reasons we take to dieting.
Popular diets and weight loss pills owe their popularity to the changing
notion of the ideal body shape. Had the fashion industry not
perpetuated the "tall and skinny", I bet they would have all been out of
business.
Lifestyle + Eating - Exercise = Obesity
Our lives
devoid of exercise also add layers and layers of fat internally. The
basic principle to lose weight is to spend more calories than you
consume. If you don't exercise, there is no chance to burn the extra calories.
We live frantic lifestyles with an endless list of responsibilities. We
barely find time to relax leave alone exercise. At the end of the day
the only thing you want to do is hit the bed. That is what is causing
part of the trouble for you. Exercise also plays a major role in
balancing your mental state. It helps you cope with your emotions and
suppresses binge eating triggered by emotional imbalances. So now, what
must be done? It's time to restore the brain to natural thinness. But
for that you must first determine how severe your food addiction is. If
you would like to take the test, the Yale Food addiction scale is a
handy tool. Developed by Dr. Gearhardt, this was among the first
scientifically validated food addiction tests. You have a resume of the
test below!
