Many know all the right things to do in order to lose weight; the right foods to eat, the right exercise program to follow. They drink enough water, they count calories religiously. They’ve tried a multitude of weight loss programs. They’ve lost some weight but either not enough or it’s come right back. Finally, they give up. What’s the point? It’s way too hard, so they might as well go back to eating whatever they want since it’s not making any difference anyway.

There is a reason for fat build-up and fat retention that most people are unaware of. It’s toxicity. Chemicals that we are exposed to get stored in the body’s fat cells. It’s a way for the body to attempt to protect itself from the attack of harmful toxins that have no natural place in our system.

Recently on The Dr. Oz Show, Dr. Mehmet Oz introduced his audience to a relatively new word in the fight against fat: “OBESOGENS”, also know as endocrine disruptors, that are essentially chemicals you’re eating that are making you fat. These chemicals, found for example as pesticides on an apple, are digested and broken down. Dr. Oz explains how these endocrine disruptors “essentially hijack the regulatory system that controls your weight and promotes obesity by increasing fat cells, decreasing metabolism and altering the brain”s ability to manage feelings of hunger.” The obesogens go into and irritate the liver, and then get put into fat cells. These fat cells are forced to multiply and thus result in fat and weight gain. As long as we keep ingesting chemicals, the body will hold on to fat. These chemicals are in the form of herbicides, petrochemicals, hydrocarbons, heavy metals, food additives and synthetic drugs. Millions of pounds of antibiotics are injected into farm animals every year and our fruits and vegetables are bombarded with insecticides and pesticides.
Is there a solution? Is there a way to rid the body of these chemicals?

The answer is yes; by incorporating a lifestyle of nutritional cleansing. The best cleanses are systemic, meaning they cleanse the whole body on a cellular level as opposed to targeting specific organs. They also contain high quality, natural cleansing agents in conjunction with nutrient rich ingredients that in turn replenish the body. Once toxins are flushed from the system, the body no longer has a reason to hold on to the fat and so a positive “side benefit” of cleansing is therefore the melting away of body fat.

It is important to know that true nutritional cleansing does not mean fasting or depriving the body of food, and that by incorporating healthy cleansing as a lifestyle, it is possible to lose weight and keep it off, fighting and defeating obesogens every step of the way.

I want to introduce you to a powerful tenet which gives rise to whatever it is you’re trying to achieve with your body is not external, yet contained within your mind. The key to losing weight is determined by how you attach meaning to it – the thoughts and emotions associated with it. Weight loss implies removing something unwanted or undesirable i.e. excess body fat. What if we re-framed it in our minds as an expression which affirms the following instead; allowing our body to return or ‘be’ in its natural state of health and wellbeing. How would that allow us to feel from an emotional level?

You see the term weight loss has a resistance to it, much like ‘rally against war.’ I stand for peace is much more harmonious and in tune with higher states of consciousness. Weight loss implies you haven’t achieved it yet, it is outside of your consciousness and a challenge to achieve.

Your natural state of health and wellbeing is a body weight that is normal to you. You don’t need diets, pills, formulas and whatever else the media is selling you to lose weight.

Fact 1: The power of drug companies has grown exponentially. They now fund about two-thirds of clinical studies and medical journals have increasingly become marketing devices for new products and diagnoses.

Fact 2: Studies by industry are subtly funded to give positive results. The same research will be published again and again in different journals, with minor variations, to give the impression of a unanimous acceptance and weight of evidence.

So what can you do to change the relationship and conversation you have with yourself around body weight issues?

1. Throw away all your dieting books NOW.
2. There is no problem, just an imbalance in one’s thoughts and emotions.
3. Go within to discover the cause of your current weight issues. Is there an outdated belief, thought or emotion which is holding you back? If so, when did it start? Go within and take a introspective journey to discover the cause. We often attach meaning to things which no longer serve us.
4. Be grateful that you live in a Western world and have access to food. Approximately 3 billion people live below .50 a day, which is considered the poverty line.
5. Re-frame how you approach weight loss in your mind and your body will follow.
6. Appreciate your body right now, regardless of shape, size, colour, height, weight. If you dislike or hate your body, you’re sending subconscious messages to every cell in your body to work against you, not in harmony with you. Why would your body want you to lose weight when you’re telling it I hate you, I don’t like what I see in the mirror?
7. Develop a relationship with your body as mentioned in previous article.

A well known author versed in the area of mind body medicine states the following about weight loss: “Health is not an event. It is a process. It is not a rock, but rather a river. Lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise can address systematic problems, but involve a change in life-process day after day. Weight loss isn’t going on a diet (an event), or being twenty pounds lighter (an event). Weight loss is what I eat and how I exercise today and always (a process).

The more you come from a place of non-resistance, the more your body recognises your willingness to grow and expand toward health and wellbeing. Remember this for it will serve you well – your health and wellbeing is a journey, never a destination. It is more about WHO you become, more than WHAT you become. It is for this reason I affirm health, wellbeing and healing is more about awakening your authentic self, using personal development, self awareness and spirituality. With these tools in hand, you become someone worthy of living a rich, health and prosperous life; without having to fall back to their former self.

Tony Fahkry is an expert in integrating the mind-body connection with health & healing, personal development and self awareness to achieve greater human potential. I do this by drawing awareness to self, removing limitations and obstacles which restrict personal growth and development.
