Don’t Torture Yourself Trying To Lose Weight

No matter what new pill or diet fad they come out with one this is for sure, it won’t work unless YOU work! Read the fine print on all of those diet pills and programs; what do they all say? “With proper diet and exercise”. So pay for all those fads and pills…spend that extra money, or just do the one thing that those who have succeeded in losing and keeping it off have done…

Are there truly any easy ways to lose weight fast out there? I don’t know but I do know one thing, you would lose more weight if you tried the good old standby of eating less and working out more. You want easy? There it is. Eat less, work out more.

Too many people want to have someone else fix their problems. Your doctor is fixes what ails you, your dentist fixes your teeth, your chiropractor fixes your spine, and so on and so on. It has just become way too easy to expect other people to fix the problem that the one with the problem forgets that they and they alone are responsible for their own BS.

Think about this though, what does the doctor do for you when you are sick? She gives you a prescription, right? What do you do with that prescription? You get it filled at the pharmacy and you take it home and take it until it is gone and you feel better, right? What would happen if you didn’t take the medicine? You would get sicker. Then you would feel really stupid for not taking the medicine, right?

The dentist tells you to brush and floss or you will lose your teeth. Who do you get mad at when you lose your teeth? The dentist? The chiropractor tells you to do these exercises to strengthen your back muscles so you have less pain. Who do you get mad at when your back still hurts? The chiropractor? If you do blame the dentist and the chiropractor then you are completely misguided and really need to rethink things.

Same goes for the weight loss, you and only you are responsible for how easily you lose the weight. Eat less and work out more. Walk where you can, incorporate some weights when you get stronger, ride a bike when you get even stronger. I hope that’s not whining I hear. What? You cannot possibly find the time for all that?

Well then, I guess you better start making time to check your blood sugar before and after every meal and injecting yourself with insulin morning, noon and night. Because that is where you are headed if you do not take responsibility for your weight loss right this second and find the time to exercise at least thirty minutes a day, every day and eat less food for the rest of your life. These are the only proven easy ways to lose weight fast.
