"If I was skinny I'd be happy". Usually the answer is no, if you were happy you would be your ideal weight.
Stop using external factors to 'become happy'. Be happy now, everything else will follow.
I agree that there are probably deep-seated negative beliefs that must be addressed, which lead many people to unhealthy eating habits. But, it's not always a case of bad eating habits! There are myriad factors which can affect metabolism. I was the poster child for a clean, healthy, vegan diet yet I had some weight that stubbornly refused to budge, no matter how much I exercised. Did I have some subconscious issues? Undoubtedly! I think when we finally address the emotional issues, we will find the physical answer, and the physical answer isn't always so simple as 'exercise more and quit eating junk food' - sometimes it's more complex than that, as I attempted to convey in my previous post.
Agreed!
