Does one usually find something that one has lost? This is the case with most people whom attempt permanent weight loss. More than half of all Americans are continually dieting. Over 50 billion dollars is spent each year in the weight loss and diet market. This market continues to grow because well over 96 of Americans who go on diets every year gain their weight back. The reason for this is all weight loss programs have one thing in common. They all treat one’s eating behavior or eating habits as the reason one is overweight. True! Treating one’s eating habits or behavior with diets and medication will help one win short term weight battles, but this will not win the war.
Continually trying new diets and medication to lose weight is a constant attack on the body to try and change the mind. The reason trying new diets and medication to lose weight are short term only, is because one’s eating behavior is simply a symptom of one’s weight problem not the cause. The source of one’s weight problem is one’s emotional state, which originates from within one’s subconscious mind. No one has ever said to a dietitian “Gee I did not realize eating an entire cheesecake was going to make me fat.” Permanent weight loss is all about getting control of one’s subconscious processes that got one fat to begin with.
By using external methods such as dieting, or medication for one’s weight loss goal one only temporarily displace one’s subconscious eating behavior programs, which results in short term weight loss only. Once one discontinues the use of the externally imposed diets or medications one’s emotionally driven eating behavior immediately returns and takes control. The result of this is a return of all the weight one has just lost.
The program process of Subconscious Restructuring® (SR®) is designed to allow one to make an assault on one’s eating behavior at its origin. As stated by the bariatric physician who was administrator of the first SR® clinical study in 1992 “In order for your weight loss to be truly effective (long term) it must originate internally. Success has to come from within not from without . In other words one cannot permanently wish, diet, or medicate unwanted weight away. Until one interrupts and changes the subconscious process of one’s current internal eating program one’s weight loss will almost always be temporary.
At the core of SR® is the reality that one’s emotional state = one’s behavior. If one understands how an emotional state comes about one can intervene and change the way one feels which in turn changes one’s behavior.
