I once attended a forum where body shape was the topic of discussion and listening to participant’s air their opinions, I couldn’t help it but to wonder how ignorant many are when it comes to losing weight and the benefits that come with it. One lady was just about to get married and her great concern was fitting in her wedding gown which was already bought and was not fitting because of her body size. In her contribution to the discussion she was very categorical that the best way to lose weight was to do it in high speed engaging in vigorous physical activities and being put on a fixed diet which should include sudden cut on the portion taken and even starving for some days she said. To her doing this suddenly would make her fit in her wedding gown in three weeks remaining before she says I do. This is the school of thought that many people believe, but realistically, this is not the case. Losing weight is a process not a destination. Target will be set but such target will and should only be met progressively and not suddenly. The repercussions of sudden weight loss programs can be very fatal and this is never the way to go. To get the facts right, we spoke to doctor Dalal Akoury the MD and founder of AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center about what needs to be done and the benefits of losing weight. She is going to share with us on the benefits and what it takes to lose weight in the healthiest way as we progress into the discussion.

Losing Weight is a process not a destination: The fear of failing

Like I have said, losing weight is a process and I am not going to promise you that it is going to be easy. One needs to be very determined and focused to the task by following all the instructions given by the weight loss experts. On your own you may not make it, you actually need people around you to succeed. The foremost person you need is an expert of weight loss. Careful consideration should be taken when locating an expert for weight loss just like in other discipline. Therefore it is important that before embarking on this journey, you need to talk to your physician to help you in the settling for a professional. This is a journey that you must start on the right footing because any mistake done from the beginning can be very costly. To avoid such costly mistakes, calling doctor Dalal Akoury an expert of more than two decades in the same discipline alongside substance abuse will be the best place you could start from. Remember that doctor Akoury is fellowship trained and certified in anti-aging functional and regenerative medicine, as well as having more than twenty years of accumulated experience in emergency medicine, pediatrics, and a master’s degree in public health. She has also served fellowships in pediatric hematology/oncology and has performed research in leukemia and the effects of smoking among other beneficial elements for your situation.

Losing Weight is a process not a destination: The same benefits no matter how it is done

Having acknowledged that losing weight is a process and not a destination, it is important to note that when starting this journey, you could do it as an individual or you could also do it a group. But no matter the way you go about it, the benefits are identical. In other words, the benefits are the same and have far reaching positive effects on one’s life and general health. To start you off, it is obvious that the bride in that discussion got it all wrong and she lacked vital information about the whole process. It is no wonder the wise said information is power and that is why AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center under the able leadership of doctor Dalal Akoury is here to offer you the most valuable asset to help you lose professionally.

Seeing the real benefits of losing weight needs not be that intensive where you have a taxing diet plan or making a sudden drop of a large amount of weight as eluded by the bride. In fact the health benefits begin to payoff even before you start seeing the physical changes. Realistically the real benefits of losing weight are to improve and make your health much better. Doctor Akoury says that before you look at your shape and the desire to fit in your wedding dress, your health actually comes first. The physical benefits are equally good but they are secondary and health is primary. I don’t mean to thrush out your wishes, not at all, but of what benefit if you have a perfect body shape with failing vital organs in your body because of obesity and being overweight? Being overweight can cause you that fatality and therefore your primary objective should be your health and then those others will follow.

Losing Weight is a process not a destination: The quality of life addition

When you have made the first commitment into losing weight, there will be moments of discouragement when you feel that your effort is not reflecting. This is normal but it is not really what your feelings are all about. You may not know but a lot more good things are happening from the inside. Doctor Akoury says that whereas it may be difficult to measure the actual quantity or quality of life added or improved when one shed off some weight, the necked fact is that there is great improvement of health in nearly all your vital organs. In many instances “if not all” people often feel better and have more energy while others will experience an enhancement in their self-esteem. Ordinarily any weight above of BMI 30 is not healthy and is considered overweight or obesity. Therefore a reduction in that would generate so many health benefits.

Finally we are certainly going to continue with this discussion in the next article so that we can get all the benefits in black and white, but in the meantime, for all your concerns about obesity and overweight, you can call doctor Akoury today to schedule for an appointment with her and she will be able to help you take the right course in losing weight much more professionally.
