Weight Loss .........Fast and Easy
I can't believe all the articles I've been reading about easy, fast weight loss. Anyone that has lost or tried to lose weight, knows there is nothing easy about it. Most people have tried countless "Easy Weight Loss" programs.
To me, weight loss is all about changing bad choices into good ones. For example: Instead of eating a Twinkie, eat an apple. Want a soda.....drink a glass of water. Usually use the elevator....walk up the stairs. Usually park as close as you can when going to work/shopping.....park at the far end of the parking lot. All these things combine will result in weight loss as well as better health.
There is an array of things people include in their New Year Resolutions. They all amount to changing or adding something to a lifestyle. None of which are easy. So...think before you fall for one of those expensive "Quick, and "Easy" weight loss programs.
Just stay focused on your goal. If you slip off your plan, don't beat yourself up. Tomorrow's a new day. Keep smiling and be proud of what you have already accomplished. Even if it's a small step (no cookies for a day). Small steps equal big steps. Don't forget the story about the turtle and the hare. Remember that as the pounds come off slowly.

People want easy they don't want to be told this is work
I agree with you...although I find most people don't really know what is realistic, so they fall victim to the gimmicky ads that promise quick weight loss! Keep up the great work!
Yes, if only it was that easy.
I have come to the conclusion that weight loss and ultimately good health is a matter of choice. If overweight, then make "sacrifices" until you are at your desired weight.
Everything "easy" ultimatly comes at a cost. For all us people who tried and tried again with fad diets, we usualy end up bigger and fatty than ever!
It's the changing our lifestyles with good habits that is the hard thing, because it has to be for life. And us humans do love our comfort zones don't we?!
Cactusfreek I remember years ago when I went to the doctor to get diet pills. He gave me an article on a study done on mice and weight loss pills. The mice had actually gotten fatter after they quit taking the pills. I don't remember who did the study...just the bottom line......they got FATTER.
