The Truth about Diet and Weight Loss

I want to talk tonight about weight loss. It's a subject everyone is worried about. And the problem is that diets don't work. Everybody has tried a diet. I haven't met a person yet that's hasn't tried something, from kids to people in their eighties; everybody has tried some kind of diet and they just don't work. In recent studies when they looked at a lot of their major diets (some good one's, Atkins, The Zone), they put them all together statistically and found a ten pound weight loss on average. Now, these people lost a hundred pounds and gained it back of course. But, all that work, all that money, all those videos, for ten pounds of weight loss?

So the truth is, we have to find a life style that will allow you to stay at a weight that is healthy for you. That's a much different way of thinking than all this crash dieting that goes on. What you have to learn is how to take care of yourself; you have to learn the appropriate foods; you have to make better choices. That's the only way it's going to work.

  • Nearly all diets =do= work, doctor. Most of them =do= give the very advice you give in that it is a life style change. Like you say, it's everyone's responsibility. The problem wasn't the diet they chose. The problem was they didn't follow through on the lifestyle change.

  • Diets work, we chose not to make them work.

  • The best way to keep weight off is you need to stay away from sugar.Refined simple sugars and foods that convert into sugars are bad and shuts down DNA and destroys DNA.Ultimately white simple processed sugar destroys,weakens,tears down the body and therefore you age at a accelerated rate.There is sugar in practically everything so YES YOU CAN BLAME THE FOOD COMPANIES FOR ALL THE UNNECESSARY SUGAR IN THE FOODS.
