Anyone who’s tried to lose weight knows it can be a frustrating experience. Not only are there nutritional considerations and lifestyle changes to tackle, but some poor eating habits are rooted in emotional issues. Whether someone is trying to lose weight for health or fitness, it’s a journey that requires focus, discipline and support. 7 Cups offers online weight loss therapy and treatment resources to help anyone working to change their diet and lose weight.
Whether trying to lose a significant amount of weight or a few pounds gained over the holidays, the principles of weight loss remain the same: consume less calories than the body burns. While that seems simple enough, it’s actually affected by a wide range of factors – from our environment and learned habits to our personal metabolism and ability to exercise. Trying to manage all that goes into weight loss can feel overwhelming, leading to a vicious cycle of emotional eating. 7 Cups is here to help release the pressure valve and maintain a healthy perspective on the process through our online weight loss therapy.
While it’s nice to think that sheer willpower is all that’s required for weight loss, it’s widely recognized that there are genetic components to the way bodies store and burn calories. According to Harvard Medical School, genes can account for anywhere from 25 to 80 percent of a person’s predisposition to gain or keep weight on. For some people, consultation with a doctor may be an important step toward weight loss.
7 Cups is available to help process the complex emotions that happen during the process of weight loss. Our therapists can offer impactful advice along with a listening and understanding ear.
