You may need to just use common sense to lose weight! Maybe you’ve used numerous weight loss tactics that haven’t worked long-term. Some of these could include:
1. Severe calorie restriction diets
2. Extended low-carb diets
3. Weight loss pills and powders
4. Fat blockers
5. The latest fad diet
6. Diet without exercise
7. Fat-burner supplements
8. Herbal weight loss remedies
9. Eat-all-you-want and lose weight
On and on it goes with the weight loss lies and deception! The weight loss industry is a billion dollar industry and people are paying good money to end up frustrated and weighing even more!
All you have to do is look at the numerous lawsuits that have been successfully won against weight loss companies and their false claims over the years! The weight loss lies and deception will stop when people decide to stop wasting money on these products! Until then, a new weight loss product will hit the market just about every day!
So, what should you do? Take a deep breath and use your common sense when it comes to your health and weight loss. Being honest with yourself might be painful at first but you will be on your way to getting the long-term weight loss and fat loss that you want and deserve!
Its not difficult to use common sense…..you were born with it. So, here’s some pointers to get you started on your way to weight loss and fat loss success:
1. Since you didn’t become overweight in a few days, it’s unrealistic to think that you can successfully lose large amounts of weight in a few days. Quick weight loss diets usually lead to you regaining even more weight (yo-yo diet effect)! This is also very unhealthy!
2. Do you think you can successfully lose weight without exercising? I didn’t think so. After 100 years of diet history, doctors, dieticians and fitness professionals agree that the best way to burn fat and lose weight (and keep it off) is through regular exercise and healthy nutrition. Also, fat loss is more important than weight loss. If you build muscle mass and speed up your metabolism, you will lose inches, burn fat and lose weight---long-term! It’s just common sense!
3. If you continue to eat the same amounts of food and gain weight, can you really expect a weight loss pill to help you lose weight?
4. Have you made a lifetime commitment to exercise and healthy eating? If not, you need to make that commitment! This commitment trumps all other fitness commitments and will keep you going through the ups and downs in your quest for long-term fat loss, weight loss and health. How many times have you started and stopped a weight loss program? Common sense says to make the commitment.
5. Have you tried a successful weight loss surgery? Did you follow that surgery by starting an exercise program and healthy meal plan? If not, common sense tells you that you will eventually regain that weight!
6. Did you lose 20 pounds in two weeks without exercise? Did you “starve yourself” to lose those pounds? What do you think will happen when you start to eat again? That’s right, you will regain the weight!
You could start your own list. It’s all common sense. Eat more calories than you burn and you will gain weight. Exercise, and you will burn more calories and make it easier to stay fit.
