Food is a universal component, after air and water, to live. Abundant sweet and fatty food becomes a kind of compensation for the suffering in this life. You can eat trouble at work, quarrel with a girlfriend, lack of money, betrayal of her husband, and more! Up to bad weather and chronic sleep deprivation.
A man always wants to feel protected. And overweight he is often fenced off, protected from the effects and demands of the outside world to him. Overweight psychologically serves as a defender serves as a barrier, a layer between the person and what surrounds him, what threatens him.
The reason for overweight maybe the constant criticism of the person by others, the dislike of the person to himself as a denial of his attractiveness, individuality, and significance. If a person constantly scolds himself for his appearance or life achievements, is dissatisfied with his body, then the body has to adapt to it somehow. It begins to correspond to and become the way it is thought. The outer reflects the inner.
Often we feed stress, fears, and anxiety. From the exam at school to dismissal from work to road accidents to the forthcoming wedding to the birth of a child to a regular family evening. Truly impressive, and much more common than it may seem at first look, is the fear of "being or not being" attractive.
In all these cases, food is resorted to as a physiologically justified means of settling down for a while. Even animals take a nap after a meal because the process of digestion of food requires the body to allocate additional energy for some time when all life activities are aimed at digestion. Due to the concentration of the body's forces on the process of digestion, everything else is suspended, and the person feels relief, relaxation.
Therefore, any diet, and proper diet, therapeutic starvation is important preliminary work with yourself. So, before you begin to make radical changes in the figure with all the means offered by the beauty industry, you will have to learn by will to respect your own body and soul, to love and be able to settle with them.
