I think most heavy people, and I am still heavy even though I went from about 250 to about 187, have the notion that that is their "normal weight." This is not the case. Humans evolved over a couple millions of years eating a certain type of natural food diet and probably even the fattest humans would have had a few weeks of fat stored for times of scarcity. This is not much. Even a lean person has many thousands of calories of stored body fat and that is by design.
If people simply flipped this idea that your "normal weight" should be lean with only a couple weeks of stored fat to use in times of scarcity, then this will help you realize that your fat self is the abnormal one, and that if you simply eat a more natural diet free of processed sugars and grains, and low in starches and legumes (our ancestral evolved diet) then your body will 'normalize' and get you down to that leaner frame that has a normal amount of stored fat.
You can do this. I promise. Just switch over to a new normal where you are eating mostly meat/fish/eggs and non-starchy vegetables and occasional fruits and nuts and cheese and you will see fantastic results. If you falter and go off it, just go right back to your new normal and you will get back on track. You must think of sugars and grains especially as once-in-a-while treats. This is the simplest way I can put it and it has been working really great for me for the last year. I have absolutely no doubt that I will return to an obese 250 or anywhere near that.
Some people to Google for further research on this: Gary Taubes, Nina Teicholz, Dr. Ken Berry, Dr. Jason Fung, Dr. Michael Eades, Vinnie Tortorich, and there are so many more...
