People who live with high job demands and little control over their jobs have twice the risk of death from cardiovascular disease than people who do not suffer this stress

Providing people with greater control where there are high job demands improves their level of stress and also their health.

Can we take a page from this book when it comes to losing excess weight? The demands are pretty high here too. Otherwise, it would have been easy peasy to lose so much weight. But like other women, you find there are difficulties losing weight because the demands on your old eating lifestyle are high.

You’ve got three choices: reduce the demands or have more control—or do both.

Let’s take being more in control as the most malleable factor. What can you do to exercise more control over the weight-loss process? You can work on your weight-loss psychology—what your eating so much is all about. Work too on getting motivated to lose weight, prepare good weight-loss strategies that fit you, get a weight-loss buddy, get plenty of good weight-loss advice, and so forth.
