Genetics And Weight Loss

 
Author: Raymond Burton
'I would be able to lose weight if it wasn't for my genetics'

The actual truth is that genetic factors CAN play a role in the speed of weight loss. Why is this? Because from birth everyone has a different hormonal profile and hormones are what determine every action in the body. This includes metabolism and fat burning.

Now while genetic factors can play a role in the speed of weight loss, they cannot stop you from losing weight and changing your metabolism. Hormonal profiles can be changed! If your hormonal profile can be changed, then the speed of which you lose weight can be changed!

The point is that sometimes in the beginning, getting the weight loss machine humming can be some work. The last thing you need is to feel that all your efforts are in vain because you are fighting genetics.

What I want you to know is that genetics will only keep you fat if you do nothing in an effort to change it. Fat is very timid. As soon as you make an effort to change your physical state, your body will start to respond in kind. You start taking care of yourself and fat gets scared. You keep taking care of yourself and fat doesn't feel comfortable hanging around.

Everybody can and will lose fat if they just try. Genetics just dictates the speed that everything happens at in the beginning.

Are some people naturally big? Yes, they are called endomorphs. Are some people naturally skinny? Yes, they are called ectomorphs. It doesn't matter one lick though. Why? Because there are many things in life that people do not start out naturally gifted at but go on to become the best of the best through simply trying and never giving up.

What you can conceive, you can achieve.

I want to share with you some thoughts about thoughts. This is based around some motivational stuff I read from James Allen.

A woman's mind may be likened to a garden, which may be lovingly cultivated or allowed to run wild; but whether cultivated or neglected, it must, and will, create. If no useful seeds are put into it, then an abundance of useless weeds will grow therein, and will continue to produce their kind.

Just as a gardener cultivates her plot, keeping it free from weeds, while growing the flowers and fruits which she requires, so may a woman tend the garden of her mind, weeding out all the negative, useless, and untrue thoughts, and cultivating toward perfection the flowers and fruits of positive, useful, and true thoughts. By pursuing this process, a woman sooner or later discovers that she is the master-gardener of her soul, the director of her life and body. She also reveals, within herself, the laws of thought, and understands, with ever-increasing accuracy, how the thoughts and mind elements operate in the shaping of her character, circumstances, and body.

What I want you to know is that the first step to getting the body you want and losing extra weight comes from letting go of who you think you are. You are not someone fighting the uphill battle against genetics. You are someone that needs to clear some weeds and get to work on a wonderful new creation.
