A dietician with twenty years of experience provides 5 tips for losing weight : I am talking about them because these are tips that are the result of her work both in the private and hospital settings.

And above all, they are the result not only of years of experience with thousands of patients with severe pathological conditions who were overweight or obese, but they represent a different approach , and not a list of no foods or yes foods and do this or do that if you want to lose weight.

So I really think that they can be useful tips for losing weight for those who have been struggling with the scale and with food for years. Here then is the advice of the American doctor Abby Langer.

5 TIPS FOR LOSS ACCORDING TO THE DIETOLOGIST

1. Your problems with food are often not just about food:
   According to Dr. Langer, most people who have problems losing weight develop habits that aren’t just about food, but that lead to weight gain. food, with a sense of hunger, is a reaction to something else: excessive control over what to eat and how much a lack of control over other situations, for example work or family or health, can hide; Excessive hunger and craving for sweets can be an unwitting attempt to use food to allay anxiety. Telling someone to eat less, as if they’ve never tried in their life, obviously doesn’t work. Often, however, you have to work on everything else, except on food.Working on anxiety, on one’s happiness and well-being, saying no when needed, living life with a different, more positive approach, reducing stress . In short, you can overeat as a consequence of something else, and perhaps it would be better to take the bull by the horns and face that something else rather than thinking about solving all your problems with a diet.
2. Nobody likes to live with regrets, not even food:
   how many times have we not allowed ourselves something for fear of getting fat, we have avoided invitations, events, pleasant or joyful situations, and instead we have preferred to skip a meal, eat alone at home, avoid going out for do not fall into temptation? But you can’t live your whole life like this. There is only one life. Wasting time worrying about the wrong things is not only useless, but it risks turning into a double-edged sword. Living life more fully and satisfactorily, limiting excesses but without depriving ourselves of anything can also allow us to lose weight, reducing the stress of diet and sacrifices.
