Many people decline treatment of Diabetes Type 2 because they fear gain weight. See facts below.
Many people avoid treatment of Diabetes Mellitus type 2 or accept inadequate control because they do not want to gain weight. They often point to friends or relatives who were put on insulin or another medication and then gained weight. Many studies have been done to understand this phenomenon and to help patients control their diabetes without facing unpleasantness from the scale. The ACCROD study reported in Diabetes Care predicts which patients are more likely to gain weight and which medications are associated with weight gain. Uncontrolled Diabetes type 2 is
Stress, anxiety and depression are fat triggers for cortisol. Is the search for love making you fat?
Dating can be stressful. The search for love can be long, arduous and met with challenges. Personalities may clash. Lies may be told and people may not be as fabulous as they are in person as they seem to be online. These situations can create stress and aggravation for even the most level headed and calm individual.
Are you using food as a substitute for love? Break free from emotional eating with these steps.
When you have an argument with your significant other, do you reach for a pint of ice cream or a bag of barbecue chips? If you’re feeling lonely, do you find comfort in a bowl of mac and cheese or a slice of pizza? If so, you may be suffering from emotional eating disorder. Here's how to combat the problem.
I'm not blaming you for my weight gain, sweetheart, but I know it's not my fault.
Every time I get in a new relationship, I get comfortable... too comfortable. That comfort leads to weight gain. But why do I, and many, many poor, poor people, gain weight while we're dating? Is nesting going to be the death of us all?
When we fall in love, we pack on the pounds? Why is this the case, and how can we avoid it?
For me, my weight has always been a bit of a challenge. Having a childhood nickname of “Buddha Baby” should kind of explain it it all, but, in essence, I’ve always loved food…and struggled with keeping a trim figure as a result. By no means am I overweight, but I can’t help but notice those few pesky extra pounds when I look in the mirror or slip on my skinny jeans.
When you deprive yourself of the foods you love most, your diet will inevitably fail.
Clair prides herself on being really good when she diets ... until she isn't. Then she is really, really bad and can't seem to help herself. The moment she gets derailed and succumbs to food she knows she shouldn't have, she is taken over by an insatiable desire for all the foods she's been denied the past few weeks. The pattern is always the same, as it is for millions of people who diet every month.
When you can regain control of your thoughts, the weight starts to come off.
Have you struggled for years with your weight and try almost every diet and weight-loss method under the sun? Have you changed your diet and joined the gym, and the weight is still there, or it keeps coming back?
The truth of the matter is: the biggest thing that helps shift weight is through understanding the reasons why you are eating so much. If you do not address your personal issues (ex: what are the causes of your unhappiness, anger, sadness, frustration, whatever it is), you will tranquilize your problems by comfort eating.
Weight loss secrets you won't believe! They are so simple, thin people don't even know they do it!
It was Mother's Day brunch. I was 12 and my sister was 10. My family was notorious for going to brunches. As a child I remember waiting up to an hour just to get into a good Sunday brunch. This day we had already gotten up for seconds. Then thirds. After all, brunch is a time to splurge!
I was half way through my third round of little desert cakes, bacon and scrambled eggs when I looked over and noticed that my sister had stopped eating. "What's wrong?" I inquired dumbfounded. We were at brunch after all; you are supposed to stuff yourself silly.
Is it harder to stay away from greasy takeout food when you're part a couple?
Kelly Clarkson is slimming down for her new man -- but do most of us get fatter when coupled up?
Conventional wisdom says that people in relationships usually gain weight, thanks to a variety of factors like high-calorie date nights and skipping yoga in favor of snuggling at home. In addition, people who work out in the hopes that their toned physique will snag them a suitor might relax their gym routine once they’ve found a mate. Obviously this isn’t true for everyone, though...
Should weight be such a heavy issue in a relationship?
This week, over in the Ask YourTango forums, a user wants to know if her boyfriend really has a problem with her weight or if he was just on a drunken rant, and well, I'll let her explain:
"Recently, we went to a party, and he had a little much to drink. When we got home, he proceeded to tell me that he didn't feel like our sex life was up to snuff because of my weight. He said that he didn't feel attracted to me because of it, but that he loves me for who I am now.
