Each type of diet has its good points as well as its bad features. It can be very confusing to the first time dieter to try and select the proper easy weight loss program for their use.

Before we start determine any sort of easy weight loss programs it is important that we address a bit of background material concerning body genetics and the major reasons that easy weight loss is really very difficult. This is the purpose of this article.

Before starting a diet a person should note how his or her build will have an effect on the program results. Some people are born short while others are simply tall. Some may have large shoulders and hips while others may be short but very muscular. Genetics determines everyone's body shape and build. The best news possible for those who may be overweight is that genetics is not the determining factor on whether one is fat and overweight or thin. What this means is if you are overweight that can be changed.

There are generally specific reasons why people are usually overweight. Let's briefly cover these issues at this time.

The primary cause is usually a slow metabolism. These people simply have a difficult time burning off the calories they have taken in with their food consumption. This results in stored up fat within the body.

The second reason that we will talk about is emotional eating. It is highly possible that those people who are overweight often are stressed out or emotionally bothered consistently. As a result they tend to eat a lot and in some cases they eat food portions which are simply too large. Similarly these same people have a tendency to eat late in the evening causing the food to convert to unusable fat.

Hormonal imbalances are more of a medical problem then something that the overweight person can actually deal with themselves. It is suggested that in this case they consult with their family doctor for further disposition.

Sometimes the food ingredients themselves can cause overweight conditions as well. These foods can often generate dangerous toxins within the body that will hinder weight loss.
