    Lose weight, Lose Fat

    Hey Sakika,

    Exercise and healthy eating are very important, but unfortunately, she may have trouble losing weight because of her age. During the teenage years, the body is undergoing lots of changes, including changes in hormone levels, circadian rhythms and more – all of which can make losing weight more difficult. She may find she naturally slims out in a few years as her body settles down.

    However, there are a few other things to check on. Talk to her to see if she’s sneaking unhealthy food at school – I’ve worked with students before who will toss their healthy, homemade lunches and trade with friends for goodies, or borrow money for vending machines or cafeteria snacks.

    Also, although 16 is a bit young to be thinking about bariatric surgery options, her doctor may recommend a medically-supervised diet program depending on how severe her health parameters are. Many obese children are at risk of fatty liver disease or heart disease – things typically seen in much older adults. If she is at risk for some of these health conditions, her doctor may want to take more drastic action.

    It’s great that you’re being proactive about this – keep up the good work!

    Need to lose weight?

    Have her try calorie shifting, the idea behind the diet is to instead of avoiding food, embrace it and use it to your benefit to improve your metabolism. This way you’ll actually continue to burn fat even once you stop the diet.

    The major problem with all diets that limit your calorie intake is that they as a result weaken and lower the effect of your metabolism on the foods you eat and actually make your body much more prone to storing calories as a result. Much like when an animal goes into hibernation, your body will go into scarcity mode and begin holding onto anything it can.

    That’s the main reason that people experience rebound effects from diets. Calorie shifting actually does it right because it changes the way your body utilizes food and as a result you lose weight and keep it off when you stop.

    I’ll throw in a link to a popular calorie shifting diet program in my source box for you to learn more about it.
