Subliminal Weight Loss Is Surprisingly Common

By Janine Hughes


Every time when the end of the year gets closer everyone decides that in the New Year, they will make decisions that will better their lives. One of these decisions is to lose some body weight. Subliminal weight loss on the other hand is not really something that was planned.

Some people might wonder why this can be a problem for someone. Other people again wonder how people can embrace this. It will all depend on what the current state of your health is. If you are already extremely thin you will find that losing body mass can become a problem for you. If you are obese you will welcome lose body mass without trying with open arms. As mentioned earlier this can go either way.

When you lose body fat this will usually happen. It is not something that will happen overnight. Therefore, you will not notice it immediately, but some signs may become apparent with time. This is only something that you will notice a couple of months after it started happened.

The first thing that can cause this is if your body loses fluid. Fluids can make up a great deal of your entire body mass. If you lose, some of the fluid that was in your body you will find that your body mass is also lower. Something else that can cause this, is something known as muscle atrophy. This can also cause you to lose some of your body mass. A combination of these two can cause you to lose even more of your total body mass.

If you suspect that something like this is happening, you should weigh yourself at the beginning of the month. You should live life as you would normally, with no extra exercise or change in what you eat. At the end of the month, you should weigh yourself again.

When it becomes dangerous or a medical problem is when the patient has lost about ten percent of his or her total body mass in a period of six months. If they did not notice anything strange, it can also be measured at five percent of the body mass in one month. The doctors will use something known as the BMI or the Body Mass Index.

Something that is very concerning and that is probably the biggest cause for people losing some of their body mass without knowing is malnutrition. Malnutrition does not necessarily mean that the person does not eat at all. Malnutrition basically means that the person does not eat right.

Your body mass index will show the doctor if the amount of body mass is right for your length as well as you age. This is a scale that they use to see if you are obese or too thin. If you are obese, this kind of thing will probably not be a major problem as you can do with losing some of your body mass.

The doctor will however do some investigation just to make sure that the reason why you are losing the body mass without planning it is not something life threatening. Once they have established that it is not life threatening they will leave whatever it is and allow you to still lose the body mass. They will however keep an eye on it and will not allow it to become a problem in the long run.
