Medical Professionals: What are weight loss tips and advice that you wish everyone knew?

HI,
Someone requested this and I thought, Hey why not?

  1. Your weight is not YOU, it is just how you are right now.

  2. You can change,

  3. Changing behavior is harder than changing your body. If you want to change behavior go to a psychologist, it's what they do.

  4. You don't have to change everything at the same time, Little steps are lasting steps.

  5. The biggest loser is a terrible role model. Slow change is lasting.

  6. Even if you are the biggest patient I have ever seen, (you are not) you are still worth all of my effort and attention.

  7. CICO works

  8. Adding 1,000 extra steps a day is enough of a change to start to feel a difference.

  9. Over eating is an addiction, And we deserve the same compassion as anyone else struggling with addiction.

  10. This can happen to anyone.

  11. Maintenance is the last step in any change.

  12. You can't hate yourself thin. If it is punishment, you need to change it.

I am not a weight loss genius, I am just a obese lady who has lost 30 lbs so far. I don't have all the answers, but these are things I try to hold on to.

Drs, Nurses, Dietitians... What are little pieces of info that you wished everyone knew?
