How Can We Find Who Is To Blame For Obesity
Tagged Under : health, obesity, Weight Loss
There is a constant debate about who is to blame for obesity in this country. We can blame ourselves, we can blame the media, or we can blame our parents. We can also blame the availability of processed foods that are abundant in our society. Here is a different theory.
Depression: If you are not feeling well mentally you can over eat. You don’t want to feel good about yourself and you will feed the need to feel better by eating. It gives you a sense of goodness for the period you are eating it because it tastes good.
Control: When everything else is a person’s life is out of control then perhaps the one thing they can control is eating. Even if it is too much they are in control and want to have control over something. It can cause obesity. It can also cause other eating disorders as bulimia.
Learned behavior: Coming from a family that does not eat healthy and there is nothing wrong with that is a learned behavior. There is not issue of eating the wrong foods, the wrong portions and the wrong time of day is standard. No one is to blame as it is generational and no one sees that perhaps it is causing the obesity because they are a happy family.
Protection: Many people who have been sexually abused cover up their bodies by gaining weight. There is the feeling that if they are not attractive then they cannot be hurt sexually again. It is their protection and safety net from pain.
You can easily look at an obese person and think they have no self control. But you need to see the passion behind what is eating them. By knowing why a person is feeding themselves more than they need it means they are starving for something else they desperately want. Knowing this can start a road to understanding not only for the obese person but for us as well. It’s probably not the other person’s fault that they’re obese.
