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 evolved from organic gloop in the oceans millions of years ago to 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, having been invented 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 as it grew in nature. Then in the late 70's the fast food and supermarket culture exploded, and food became mass produced and filled with preservatives and many 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 meals 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 compete with rival brands. And as this happened food became more and more addictive and people started to get fat. In the last 30 years obesity has been on the rise untill now 35% of Americans are over weight. Eating the junk food mass produced food has become the norm, but just because it is the norm, doesn't make it right.
When weight watchers and jenny craig etc market you their diets, they're selling you a lie, and the lie is this, they will have you continue to consume in the same way, easy cook high taste meals, but now rather than eating a dominos pizza, they say eat our low-calorie pizza and you will shed pounds. That is like taking a substance abuser and simply getting them addicted to another drug, only the addiction weight watchers and the like are getting you addicted to is the idea you'll lose fat if you do as they say( while paying them there high fees and buying their meals!) The fact remains this if you need to lose weight, you must do a couple of things. First of all you require the desire to change and the discipline to get it done. With no discipline no diet is ever going to work. This is the thing weight watchers will never let you know because if you are aware of it, you realize you don't need them, you need to do it yourself. Secondly you need to change your diet and eat right, you will need to learn what foods to have and not to eat. Thirdly you will have to stick with it, because as much as they promise you quick weight loss, fat loss doesn't happen over night. You don't get fat magically and you won't get slim magically, but if you can be patient with the process you are able to drop pounds.
Everybody longs to lose weight fast and there's a way to do this, however it requires you to train and exercise like an athlete and the majority people are, particular when overweight just a little lazy, or have health issues which come from being over weight which stop them exercising, or make it harder for them to train.
The truth is if you want to shed extra pounds you need to be patient and disciplined and eat right. 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 reside in a culture containing almost everything available instantly , movies on demand, quick checkouts at the supermarket, tweets and so on, it seems to me that many people have lost sight of things and expect fat reduction to be " on demand" so when it doesn't happen instantly they lose interest. In reality if you want to get slimmer you actually need to make that happen yourself and you've got to dedicate yourself to 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.
