Surrender to the luminous core of one's consciousness, which is more powerful than one's strongest proclivities, initiates a mighty countervailing force against the cumulative momentum generated by the chittavrittis.
Cessation of the activities of the mind, the chittavrittis, will be the result of this discipline. Once the chittavrittis stop, you can attain samadhi.
Hence the most important component in management of obesity is mind management. Yoga is the right tool to develop a healthy and happy way of controlling the weight through chittavritti nirodhah. (mastery over the mind is yoga).
