Obesity Treatment or Diet?

Everything is going good so far, besides for being sick and experiencing a few difficulties with the obesity treatment. Let me explain with I call this obesity treatment and not a diet. To me a diet is something someone would do to lose certain about of weight by a certain time. I always hear about people that are on a diet who will cheat or “reward” themselves with thing they know will not help their diet. The third and final thing I think of them I hear about a diet is that it is accessible to anyone, well for a price. Now for the obesity treatment I am going through. If I had cancer I would not cheat on my radiation treatment, or I would not cheat on my insulin if I was a diabetic. So it makes no sense to cheat on my obesity treatment. You may say there is a huge difference between those two diseases and obesity. I would say you’re wrong you can die for cancer and you can die from obesity. As for diabetes you probably know this is not a disease for skinny people generally. I would consider diabetes a symptom of obesity. Also the treatment I am receiving in under close supervision of an Obesity Doctor, Dietitian, Social Worker and a Kinesiology. You need to be referred to the clinic by your family doctor.

Last night was my weekly meeting and weigh in. I will not be posting my weight loss on here mainly because I know people from my group read this and we don’t discuss our weight loss. Don’t want it to become a completion and everyone’s weight will come off in different amounts. I know I would feel somewhat discouraged if in a week I don’t lose a lot I have to hear about someone who did. But I not weigh in the 300 for the first time in over five years.
