How believing weight is out of your control could lead you gain weight

According to a new study , why you shouldn't worry about your body weight , believing that your weight is outside of your control could lead you  packed on the pounds, make you unhealthy food choices and decrease quality of your life .
If any of the person  believes that weight to be outside of the influence of  exercise and diet, He or she may engage in more behaviors that may rewarding in the short term, Like eating unhealthful foods and avoiding exercises , rather than healthful behaviors with more long-term benefits for the  weight management," wrote study authors Dr. Mike C. Parent and Dr. Jessica L. Alquist of Texas Tech University.

Researchers Worked with data from 4,166 men and 4,655 women, and found found that the belief that weight is unchangeable comes with age -- and unhealthy eating.
As long as the people aged , they are less likely to read food nutrition labels and increasingly avoid fruits, vegetables and exercise and go for the ready-to-eat frozen meals, according to the study, "Born Fat," published in the journal Health Education and Behavior.
"Previous research has found the gender differences in weight as the  motivation for exercise and healthful eatings, and did not find evidences that gender affected the relationship between a health beliefs and the  physical activity or healthful eating," "However, we found evidence that the relationship between belief in weight changeability and exercise, healthful eating, and unhealthful eating differs by age."

A new research comes in about the role of the gut bacteria in body weight and that of energy-burning brown fat in metabolism, solutions to obesity could be around the corner, whether or no body weight is determined by DNA.
On the meantime, Parent and Alquist's study supports a 2014 study conducted at the University of Kent, that suggests the emphasizing well-being could be more important for health than focusing  in on an ideal body weight.
Chosing  good and helthy food choices, exercising and taking the time to cook best food  , surpasses  the harmful effects of  dieting and decreases one's likelihood to develop eating disorders, say the researchers, whose study was published in  Journal of Obesity and helps loosing the weight  .
