When Lisa entered the first time, was in a state of obvious distress. The skin had a yellowish color and hair were sparse enough to allow a glimpse of the scalp. Then there was the general impression of carelessness, a desire to hide, both in dress and in deportment.
anthropometric examination, namely the parameters such as height-weight ratio, fat, lean body mass and liquid, showed only slightly overweight, about ten kg. Blood tests did not indicate a particular health problems.
Aware that mostly the look is a good indicator of internal state, I switched to history food, ie the collection of information about his way of eating. Here began the surprises:
Lisa told her day food constantly referring to the desires and tastes in food of others. the standard phrase was "the night my husband wants the bread" as an answer to the question "for dinner, eat bread?".
the problem begins to emerge.
I gave her a power plan unweighted, trying to get it close as possible to their personal tastes, after verifying that she was to manage the preparation of meals and was available to cook something different for himself and his family.
At follow-up, Lisa had obtained minimal results, if not nearly zero.
investigating I discovered that the family was not okay with his new diet and often had not been possible to follow him more, had not convinced her to submit to further analysis had suggested that the (determination of transferrin of VIT.D and thyroid hormones) on the hair loss and alteration of the color.
No one had anything prohibited, he explained more than once, but teased and explained their reasons to the contrary ... and she said yes.
I realized I would have said yes to me when I explained the reasons for doing analysis and groped to follow a correct diet. Just let her talk. Quickly emerged that before forming his current family, Lisa had been a very active woman, fond of exercise and very attentive to their health. Over the years, the needs of others (a mother with health problems, two-in-law living with her and her husband, her husband and teenage son) had slowly eroded his personality and its spaces. Deeply dejected and told me that "no longer recognized" or looking in the mirror or looking at his life.
Simply, Lisa was unable to say no.
We have built an actual plan. Lisa would eat lunch and dinner a little before his family, ostensibly to optimize the time, in reality to be able to manage independently its power supply.
addition to this trick, I have to say with joy, worked at a rate of -3 kg per month, I invited her to warn the family that one afternoon a week (it was chosen on Wednesday) would be was dedicated to the gym and committees outside the home, exclusive for you.
This was a step for Lisa Extremely important: if the act of eating before the rest of the family to family procured a genuine, material advantage, the fact of taking a space frightened her, she had a fear of being considered selfish.
Fortunately, the initial results were very motivated, restoring some confidence in herself, and managed to find the strength to try.
The result was a general indifference on the part of the family, that they found nothing strange in its request. This also served to prove to Lisa as the biggest part of the problem was inside her and his family.
In the afternoon free, as well as incorporating physical activity, to his great satisfaction and a huge gain in mental and physical balance and serenity, Lisa also made the medical examinations and tests that put off for years.
In a few months, Lisa has changed a lot.
Today, Lisa - It was almost managed to return just Lisa, she regularly attended a gym where he enjoys a lot and is only 2 kg of weight form.
He resumed eating with his family and still manages to cook for themselves what they want.
begins to recognize itself, including the integration of iron which allowed her to see her hair grow back.
's starting to understand, at least as theoretically, that say "no" will not diminish the love you feel for his family.
CAUTION: TO LISA IS-HAS 'A TRUE STORY. THE NAME 'has changed.
