Weight Loss Plans

Lose 10 lbs Fast – No diets, no hunger!Lose Belly Flab Now – Foods that Fight Fat!A New Secret to Lasting Weight Loss!These were just a few of the headlines I read on magazine covers while standing in the checkout line at the grocery store. It sounds so quick and easy. Everyone can meet and maintain their goal weight and everyone can have 6-pack abs. But what you need to ask yourself – if it is so quick and easy, why do we hear so much about the 'obesity' epidemic in this country? If there is a solution to lasting weight loss why would they be keeping it a secret? Weight loss is a billion dollar industry. There are almost as many diets and eating plans as there are people to follow them. You can join support groups, have surgery, drink shakes, or take pills. When choosing a weight loss plan you need to ask yourself a few questions:

  • Why do I want to lose weight?
  • Is this weight loss plan safe?
  • Is this a plan I can follow the rest of my life?

As more and more research is conducted on why we eat and gain weight, and how we lose and maintain our weight, it is becoming clear that there probably isn't a magic cure that will work for everyone. The path that you choose to meet and maintain your weight loss goals should be right for you and following and maintaining a healthy weight is a lifetime process.Get the real facts on weight loss, not just the fads.
