Far too many people believe that losing weight is too hard and they need to be educated a lot in order to know how to lose weight effectively. Then there are others who don't want to put in the amount of effort required to lose weight because they believe that they don't need to! These people believe that there are miracles pills out there that would help them lose weight quicker than the conventional formula of dieting and exercise. All of these are obviously great misconceptions and unless you are able to rid yourself of these misconceptions, you will never be able to lose weight.

The key to losing weight lies in identifying the cause of your obesity and then taking the appropriate measures needed to counteract against this cause. This is as simple as it can get! In this article I will tell you about the three main causes behind obesity and how to counteract each one of them easily!

People become overweight usually because of three reasons: either they lead a sedentary or inactive life, or they are predisposed to obesity by virtue of hereditary traits, or that they indulge in emotional eating. Each of these problems can be solved in one way or the other.

To begin with, if you are overweight because of leading a sedentary life, it is time to get up and running. Become active. Leave that couch and start walking. Instead of going to your local market in your car, use your legs to reach the destination. Incorporate exercise into your daily life. The more active you become, the faster you will be able to lose weight.

If everyone in your family, including parents, grandparents and siblings are more or less overweight, then it means that the cause behind your obesity is hereditary. You are predisposed to being overweight but that doesn’t mean there is no way out! Start off by identifying your ideal weight and then work hard to lose enough fat so that your body weight becomes or less normal. Remember though that because of your genes you would need to work a bit harder than others.

If you are eating for emotional reasons, then there is a way out for that as well! What is the reason behind your continuous munching on fast foods? Do you eat to get over pain and misery? Or do you eat to curb the boredom that is eating you? In both cases, you can find a hobby or activity that would preoccupy your mind so that you won't think about eating for emotional reasons.

As you can see, virtually every problem relating to weight has a simple solution. Now go back and write down the cause of your obesity on paper. Then use the tips above to fight against it!
