The road to happiness is hard to find. But once you have it in your hands, you should be careful in regard to your belly, as a recent Japanese study has shown that being too optimistic could act as a major obstacle in terms of losing weight and thin.
Although optimism is usually taken as very positive, the study published in the journal Bio psychosocial Medicine showed that people who are too happy and optimistic find it difficult to lose weight.
To this end, researchers studied the psychological profiles of 101 obese people; women and men who participated in a weight loss program lasted six months. Surprisingly, those who showed greater difficulties in fulfilling their missions were the most optimistic.
Apparently, having an overly optimistic and carefree attitude creates in people the feeling that all is well. Therefore are more lenient in their diet, and therefore the task of losing weight becomes a more difficult task.
But researchers also note that having a very negative attitude also generates problems. Always viewed negatively and never be satisfied with the results also generated end problems when losing weight, like the optimism in abundance.
