Forced
to Lose Weight
One
of the worst possible scenarios when it
comes to weight loss and dieting, is for
an individual to be thrown into a situation
where they are forced to lose weight. A
doctor may order a patient to drop weight
for health concerns. A lover might
demand their partner to lose weight 'or
else'. A mother might insist that their
teen drop weight 'or else'.
In
any event, the individual is thrown in an
uncomfortable situation which may even create
further weight gain. Or, it may destroy
a relationship. Here are a few tips
when it comes to Forced Dieting:
- If
the doctor has ordered weight loss as
your prescription, try to put a positive
spin on the situation. Gain help from
your family. Get outdoors and enjoy
fishing, swimming, shooting hoops -
whatever it takes to make you want to
move around more. Explore not
only the Great Outdoors, but your inner
self. Be sure to dig deep enough
so that you pull that thin person out!
- If
your love interest has demanded weight
loss, it's time to have a one-on-one
talk. Love survives weighty issues or
it's not love at all.
- If
you parent has said that they want you
to lose weight, talk to them. Ask
the reasons why; seek out the facts
surrounding obesity and try to understand
their concerns. Work together
as a team; ask your parent to fix your
favorite foods every now and then, and
make them more diet friendly. As
a note, both the parent and child should
know which direction they are headed
in regards to a goal weight. Only
a doctor should prescribe that number
as each child is made up differently.
