Just when you think you’ve seen the last of them… there’s always something else. Every week there’s a new diet, a new pill, a new workout, a new super food. It never ends. And all for a problem that’s seemingly so simple to cure… being overweight. Just last week I saw a new one, (Sensa reviews) that is apparently none of the above but a sprinkle that you put on food which makes you feel fuller even though you’re not – insane right??
Why is losing weight so hard? Most of us know that all you need to do is eat less calories and burn more. Have a calorie deficit. That’s it. But I think subconsciously, we all don’t want it to be so easy, because it’s easy it’s not something worth aiming for. Either that, or we want to think that there is a magic bullet pill (like buy Proactol) that will let us lose weight easier than the simple “calorie deficit” method. The magic bullet pill is so desirable because it’s “something for nothing”. It’s lose weight no matter what you eat or how much you exercise. But we need to get it out of our heads that this is a legitimate possibility.
We have plenty to lose if we don’t too. As if we don’t know that? Eating unhealthy and being overweight in general leads to heart diseases, intestinal problems, not to mention the less severe but terribly painful hemorrhoids, or even less severe, stretch marks. Yes, if you don’t do something to curb your weight, you might find yourself looking up products like hemorrhoid cure Venapro, or stretch mark cream Trilastin, instead of a magic bullet weight loss pill. But anyway, surely the advantages of having a healthy body and mind are enough to motivate people into losing serious weight, right? Evidently, not. People tend to put short term pleasure (staying comfortable in the short term) above long term pleasure (staying healthy). Not the smartest choice when it comes to your health.
What will it take to break us out of our collective funk when it comes to our health? Do heart disease statistics have to become MORE shocking before we’ll take notice? Do we have to lose someone close to us, to an obesity related illness? There needs to be a cultural change to the way we view food, and there is some evidence that it might be occurring. For now, we can only be optimistic.
