Support if you're feeling stuck
Living in a bigger body is the challenge of a lifetime, and society's norms tell you that it's your fault.
But we know that's not true. There are so many reasons why you can be struggling with your weight and weight loss, and it has nothing to do with who you are.
The most common thing we hear from our patients? That they've struggled with their weight their whole life.
These are some - just a few - of the reasons why:
- genetics (one of the strongest of all the genetic traits)
- PTSD and CPTSD
- Adverse Childhood Events, which can range from emotional neglect to abuse
- bullying in childhood and teenage years
- neurodiversity (a significant number of weight loss surgery patients, far above the average, are diagnosed post-weight loss with ADHD and ASD)
- hormonal conditions, ie PCOS
- other health conditions
And there are many, many more. All of this is proven in research, much of it by data from longitudinal studies that have followed people for 50+ years.
It's not your fault, and there is hope for change.
