When your overweight, it's not just that your clothes don't fit you. Sometimes you feel like the whole world is to small. I've been heavy since my early childhood. I was always embarrassed to go and play with my friend because they would call me all sorts of names to them it was funny , but to me it was humiliating. I would come home and cry for hours hating myself and the world. I would look for some comfort so I turned to food it made me feel good. Then I would look in the mirror and cry all over again. As I got older my weight would go up and down. I would feel good and confident about myself, the problem was that every time I lose about 5lb to 10lb I would celebrate with junk food. My mind would tell me that it isn't going to hurt you will lose it, just exercise harder, eat less tomorrow guess what? It is not that easy your body consumes fat faster than you can lose it. In fact we have stored body fat that can hide in places that we are unable to get rid of. Our Thighs our Bellies, Buttocks Under our Arms even Under our Chins. Many over-the-counter products not only hype up your emotions, they may also rev up your metabolism in an unhealthy way, putting strain on your heart and lungs. Today, tens of millions of Americans are overweight and not taking advantage of the medically safe, rapid weight-loss techniques that work. By following the specific program outlined here, you will lose weight safely and rapidly from the body areas which contain stored fat. Basically the body has three types of fat:

Structural fat (endogenous) - necessary to give support to organs and smooth contour to the body (youthful appearance).

Normal fat - a reserve of fuel upon which the body can freely draw when the nutritional income from the intestinal tract is insufficient.

Excess stored fat (exogenous) - unwanted, unsightly, and dangerous. By stretching skin and burdening the body organs, it destroys health as well as beauty.

Do you consider cancer as the greatest threat we face. In fact cancer is the most dreaded disease in the U.S., but the greatest danger to the health of the American people is Obesity.

My weight loss started by going to a clinic which is physician supervised safe and effective and the program is based on data and research conducted by A.T.W. Simeons, M.D. I have currently lost over a hundred pounds and have kept it off 18 months. Now that I have reached my ideal weight I feel great, look younger, and I have lots of energy. All I have to do is maintain it off. And stay on this path. I will now be able to play with my children and have fun and not have any one make fun of me.
