YES! You Can Lose Weight Safely & Permanently
There are many factors involved in obesity -- from low thyroid to incorrect food choices to "syndrome X" and more. A comprehensive approach that includes solid food choices, selected herbs and supplements, exercise, and plenty of water is a great foundation upon which to build not only proper weight management, but also vitality and good health.

Everyone needs essential fatty acids. Adding them to your diet while lowering the harmful fats is the first step toward weight loss. They are the precursors of the hormones that run our body, and help set our metabolism.
Fiber helps give a full stomach with fewer calories. (I call fiber a "free fill-up"!) It helps us eat a better balance of concentrated and less concentrated foods. And, it speeds our "transit time". Include at least five servings of vegetables per day, and the fiber in beans or flax.
Lean proteins and beneficial fats should be the emphasis especially for those who suffer from food cravings, from hypoglycemia or from over-insulinizing. Choose unrefined carbohydrates such as oatmeal, kamut, barley and beans. Refined carbohydrates, sugar, and excess carbohydrates pose a problem for many people. Chromium is an essential mineral for all of these individuals, too, as it helps control blood sugar swings. Those with Syndrome X who may have, in addition to obesity, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and future or present diabetes, may find the herbs gymnemna sylvestre and lipoic acid important, as well as the chromium.
A homeopathic approach that can complement a proper diet by encouraging the body's own natural processes is R59.
Be positive, and lood toward the long-term goal. Quick weight loss is rarely permanent. Fat stores body toxins, and releasing them slowly while ensuring they are flushed out of the body is not only the safest way, but the most long lasting way to lose weight.
