Losing weight is easy. In fact it is much harder to gain weight than it is to lose it. When dealing with patients who have to either lose or gain weight I know which is much more of an uphill battle and it is for those who have to pile on the pounds rather than to shed them. What is difficult is cultivating the habits that are needed to initiate and then maintain weight loss. Part of the problem starts with the fact that we do not use our bodies the way we should. We were designed for expending a lot of energy either ‘hunting and gathering’ or following the agricultural revolution working in the fields.
