Magic Formulas and Broken Promises
Did you make a New Year’s resolution to lose weight? If so, you may have already broken that promise to yourself. Or perhaps you decided some time ago that when it comes to your weight, it’s hopeless. If you did break a promise to yourself don’t feel bad. More than likely, without realizing it, you’ve become accustomed to broken promises.
Society is bombarded with a confusing array of fad diets. By now we are familiar with expensive programs where the meals are already prepared. Many of us have even been tempted to take part in a boot camp with strict regiments of exercising and meals where the food is strictly monitored.
Like snake oil salesmen that traveled from town to town in earlier times, promoters, via the media, bombard you daily with promises that you’ll have a huge weight loss if you just buy their products. You may have even tried some of these programs. Maybe you did lose weight, but you probably gained it back along with some additional pounds.
Dr. Chris Kuhne, a board-certified specialist in Obstetrics and Gynecology since 1992, has a long list of patients who, after struggling for years with their weight, have not only lost those extra pounds, they’ve kept them off.
“Almost everything you see and hear promising weight loss is a gimmick,” Dr. Kuhne says. “That old adage – the less calories you eat the more weight you lose is simply not true. Even though there are no drugs that will change your metabolism, by relying on sound physiological principles there are ways to manipulate the bodies ability to conserve or burn energy. A huge part of successful weight loss means eating the way primitive people ate. Their diets consisted of grains, vegetables, fruit and protein. There are no magic formulas, but by eating the right foods, not going hungry and having good medical supervision, almost every individual can lose weight.”
Dr. Kuhne’s extensive experience and empathy allows him to successfully treat a variety of needs including weight loss, contraception, cancer-detection, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) pregnancy and basic female infertility. He also handles common mood issues such as PMS and low libido, as well as the more serious mood disorders of depression, disruptive concentration and Attention Deficit Disorder.
Dr. Chris Kuhne is located at Centennial Medical Pavilion 11 at 4461 Coit Road, Suite 309 in Frisco at the northwest corner of Hwy 121 and Coit Road. For information call 214-705-7425 or log onto www.womens-healthcare.com
