My weight gain began when I started one (or more) of the above medications.

I’ve taken antibiotics at least once in the last year.

Overall, I don’t have a very healthy diet.

Since everyone in my family struggles with their weight, my genetics make it impossible for me to be thin.

I’ve tried many different diets that involved restricting my favorite foods.

I have unresolved issues from the past that I avoid dealing with.

My bowels are irregular and I have bloating and gas after eating.

I often drink alcohol or smoke regularly.

I snore off and on during the night.

I don’t believe I’m capable of achieving long term weight loss or having the body of my dreams.

I frequently crave sweets in the late afternoon and am hungry at night.

I live in a city, work in a factory, or work indoors (such as an office building) without fresh air.

I often experience “good days” and “bad days” with eating.
