Cindy is a 44-year-old woman who lives in California Weighing 60 1 kg, the whole person is like a moving piece of fat, and the five senses are huddled together. She is unmarried, has no job, and lives alone in a messy little apartment. Because she is overweight, she basically stays in bed and sits on the sofa. You need to wear an oxygen mask when sleeping at night, and use a ventilator to help you breathe and avoid breathing interruption. The longest moving distance every day is to stagger from the bedroom to the kitchen with a walker and open the refrigerator door. She took out her favorite high-sugar cheesecake and soda, hobbled back to the bedroom, put it on the small dining table and wiped it contentedly. But the short-term satisfaction brought by food can't cover up all kinds of problems brought by overweight. Pain in her back and limbs has been with her. Until one day, the doctor warned her that if this development continued, it would bring life danger and even death in a few months. At this moment, Cindy suddenly woke up. If she doesn't lose weight, she will die.
Cindy is determined to fight for her life. She visited a famous weight loss therapist in Houston. In the process of understanding the causes of Cindy's living habits, the doctor showed Cindy's unknown bitter experience. The family where she was born never had the concept of a healthy diet. Since childhood, her family has been full of junk food with high calorie and high sugar, and her parents have never stopped her from overeating, so she has been overweight since childhood. But she is still a happy fat girl. Until 16 years old, she was gang-raped by her boyfriend and several of his girlfriends. Cindy's heart is full of shame, fear and helplessness. However, as a teenager, she was afraid to tell her family about this painful experience, and she was silently under great pressure. Cindy used sea plug to relieve her inner irritability and pain. After a big meal, the mental pain seems to be put aside for the time being. So once and for all, whenever Cindy encounters emotional troubles, she will have a big meal to relieve her discomfort. The doctor told Cindy that she was actually food dependent and addicted to food. To completely change the mode of life, it is still necessary to eradicate demons and give up drug addiction. This kind of food dependence is exactly the same as drug addiction and sex addiction. Patients treat their emotional reactions in an unhealthy way and solve them by avoiding rather than directly facing the problems. Over time, it will have a double impact on body and mind.
With the help of the doctor, Cindy found the real source of her overweight, that is, an unhealthy lifestyle. The origin of this unhealthy lifestyle is that Cindy has not been guided how to face confusion with the correct way of thinking and behavior during her growing experience. So overeating is the best choice to avoid problems. The doctor asked Cindy to give up her incorrect behavior and lifestyle first, which is an important factor for lasting weight loss. Without this, the operation is futile, and bad habits will bring Cindy back to her original shape.
Cindy went through ups and downs during the doctor's diet. In this process, after giving up the original habit of overeating, I have a sense of frustration that I can't face, I have a loss that I can't get the support and understanding of my relatives and friends, I have a sense of loneliness that I can't do anything but endure physical pain alone, and I also have the joy of going through all kinds of hardships to exceed the doctor's weight loss requirements. In this process, Cindy repaired the wounds left by past experiences and gradually recovered her feelings of self-esteem, self-love and self-discipline. Cindy's course is not so much a way to lose weight against the temptation of food, but a psychological course to reconstruct life creed, establish a healthy stress coping system and grow up internally.
