It’s not a secret any longer; struggle with weight loss is uncomfortably common. Diet, books, magazine articles, declarations from our government, informercials – they are all screaming that we have a problem… as though we didn’t already know. And if you are like most that are uncomfortable with the dress or pant size you surrendered to on your last shopping trip, you have tried it all: Hollywood diets, miracle pills, torture gadgets, gym memberships – even starving yourself from everything that tastes good! And none of it works. “There must be a better way”, you say. And there is.

High school biology taught us that fat was just a type of tissue in our body, dead weight we have to carry along for the ride. Some of us have more, some less. But recent discoveries show that fat cells are more
than that, actually communicating with our body’s network of hormones to tell us when we are hungry and what foods we are craving. This communication system is in fact so effective that no amount of “will power” can override the urgings these little guys create. You might say, “I knew something was sabotaging my diet!” And that may be true. However, keep in mind your dieting attempts may even be making the problem worse.
