What Happened To All My Energy?

Have you ever wondered what happened to your energy? Clients would email me constantly about the lack of energy. I ask them about their diet, what they're eating and how often do they eat, and the most important question, how much extra weight do you have? In other words, how much weight have you gain since you were 21.

You see, you lose energy because you're carrying around too much fat and you probably are not eating the right food to give you energy. So maybe you haven't been exercising but that's not your problem. You have to fix your diet. With the proper diet, you will gain some of that energy you lost. Your diet is "key" to a healthy life, but with the availability of manufactured foods and the convenience and price, many people are choosing to take the easiest way and buy manufactured foods that basically have no nutritional value or very little and contain high amounts of white enriched or processed flour, salt and sugar. Those are ingredients that cause you to gain weight.

The body fat that you accumulated over the years uses some of your bodies energy to stay alive. So how does that work? Your body has to pump blood and maintain that blood flow to all of your body and if you keep growing your body it takes more energy day after day. The energy to keep your body functioning comes from the food you eat for the most part and if the food is low in nutrition a heavy person can be low on energy shortly after leaving the table. 

Without body fat that energy would be used to burn the fat you eat and used for body functions. You can't lose all your fat. About 15% of your body mass needs to be fat. It cushions your organs and fat also keeps your bones from rubbing. Your body likes to process the fats it get from seafood and plant food like nuts. You can find out from your doctor how much body fat you have. If you have more than 25% body fat your considered overweight. Almost 67% of adult Americans are overweight. So if you're part of those people don't feel alone, but just because you're part of a large group that doesn't mean your any healthier.

As a young adult, extra body fat probably doesn't bother you, but it will as you age. If you don't like the idea of taking insulin shots every day, you might want to do something about your diet and lose some of that body fat.
