Can you lose weight quick? There are probably hundreds of articles on the internet about how to lose weight, and countless others in magazines telling what to do or not to do to lose weight. When I sat down to write this article I wondered how can I make this different and I decided to tell you a few home truths about dieting, the kind of thing weight watchers and the like won't tell you.
But first I want to talk about a lie. The modern diet we have been fed by supermarkets and the fast food industry is very, very unhealthy to eat. Yet people eat this stuff all them time, why? Because it tastes good. The modern diet is high in taste and low in nutrition, and the more you eat it the more it becomes habit forming, and after a while you begin to think that is all there is to food, as after all it is every where. Hungry and out, eat a snack bar, pop in to mcd's, grab a KFC bucket. Junk food is every where, and when some one is exposed to something all the time they start to think of it as the norm. But it is not the norm, not by a long shot, it is man made produced low nutrition addictive crap.
We started out organic gloop in the oceans an incredible number of years ago and evolved into the most complex dominant and intelligent life on the planet. We evolved over millions of years consuming the foods nature provided. Our ancestors ate what nature provided, even bread, the food most westerners consider a staple is only 3000 years old, previously being created by the Egyptians. Even 50 years ago we ate mostly unpreserved food from our local grocery , butcher or market. Food was produced locally and was basically mainly because it grew naturally. Then in the late 70's the fast food and supermarket culture exploded, and food became mass produced and stuffed with preservatives and lots of supermarket meals were created and marketed and over time what we ate changed. It changed from natural produced home-cooked meals to quick pop it in the microwave meals, these dishes are high in taste but low in nutrition. Food manufacturers began producing food with more and more preservatives and additives , like sugar , to make it taste better and to contend with rival brands. And as this happened food became increasingly more addictive and people started to get fat. Within the last 3 decades morbid obesity has been on the expansion untill now 35% of american citizens are over weight. Eating the fast food made in huge amounts food has become the norm, but just because it is the norm, doesn't make it right.
When weight watchers and jenny craig and the like market you their diets, they are selling you a lie, and the lie is this, they would have you continue to consume in the same way, easy cook high taste meals, only now rather than eating a dominos pizza, they say eat our low calorie pizza and you will lose weight. This is like taking a drug addict and just getting them addicted to another drug, only the addiction weight watchers and the like are getting you hooked on is the idea you will lose weight if you do as they say( while paying them there high fees and buying there meals!) The truth is this if you want to lose weight, you need to do a few things. Firstly you have to have the will to change and the discipline to do it. With out discipline no diet will ever work. This is the thing weight watchers will never tell you because if you know it, you know you don't need them, you have to do it yourself. Secondly you need to change your diet and eat right, you need to know what foods to eat and not to eat. Thirdly you have to stick with it, because as much as they promise you quick weight loss weight loss doesn't happen over night. You don't get fat over night and you won't get slim over night, but if you can be patient with the process you can lose weight.
Every one wants to lose weight quickly and there is a way to do this, but it requires you to train and exercise like an athlete and most people are, particular when overweight a little lazy, or have health problems that come from being over weight which inhibit them exercising.
The simple truth is if you want to shed some pounds you have to be patient and disciplined and eat correctly. If you need to lose weight quickly you have to be patient disciplined and eat right and workout right. This is the best way to get it done.
When we live in a culture that has every thing on demand , movies on demand, quick checkouts at the supermarket, tweets and so on, it seems to me that some people have lost sight of things and expect weight loss to be " on demand" and when it doesn't happen instantly they lose interest. The truth is if you want to lose weight you have to make that happen yourself and you have to work for it, because being slim and healthy is a gift and really worth having, and anything worth having is worth working for.
I brought a 10 ebook and lost 5 stone (70lbs) and reached my target weight, this book " How to Lose Weight and Eat Right"explains how to do this and what to eat and makes it very very simple, no carb or counting calories or cooking special meals, it truely does work and I can heartily recommend it.
It is worth dropping pounds, because despite how good processed foods seems to taste, being slim and healthy is a million times better, and the right diet is just better for you.
