weight loss question

[Guest guest]

Hi Amy,

This is less an attempt to answer your question than it is a general

word on weight from the perspective of a medical intuitive:

From the beginning of my practice I've found a consistent theme with

regard to weight - that as in all things, each person is unique.

After a scan of a person who's coming to my office, which includes

issues of under or overweight, I know now that I'll have no idea what

the client actually looks like.

An example was a young woman whose scan revealed nothing about her

being overweight. The person who appeared at my door was what- in the

day- people euphemistically referred to as " big-boned. " Almost

rectangular. She had other health issues but finally revealed that

she considered weight to be one of them and weight loss to be an

objective. I checked again and told her that I simply wasn't getting

her weight, per se, to be either detrimental or something she'd have

much success altering. (At the same time I got that there was a degree

of genetic insulin resistance that a naturopath would probably want to

address.) But I got that her shape and weight were mostly genetically

determined. Her response was " Oh, I was afraid you might say that. My

dad and everyone in his family is shaped exactly like me. "

On the other hand, a recent scan indicated that for optimal well-being

a young woman needed to reduce her weight, so I thought I knew what

she'd look like. Wrong again. The woman who showed up was tall, and

to my eyes, quite slender. I thought I'd simply made an error in the

scan. But she was wearing a loose tunic which fell straight over her

waist and hips and she was the one to point out that she was carrying

about fifteen pounds more than she was accustomed to in that area.

For her I got that losing that weight was an important and realizable

objective.

What I came to conclude was that the most useful feedback I could give

was one person's intuitive sense of how successful or necessary the

process of weight loss might be, since most people look forward to the

effort about as much as a quilting needle in the eye.
