I find it so frustrating that the diet industry & health professionals are more caught up on making money than improving peoples health. To begin with, certain high profile fitness professionals market weight loss products pumped full of artificial ingredients that they themselves wouldnt be caught dead consuming. But theyre happy for you to consume them as long as its filling their wallets. And then theres the fad diets.. What do HCG drops, Isagenics, and certain other current diets have in common?! They all encourage dangerously restrictive eating. At as low as 500 calories per day, youre encouraged to eat barely enough calories to SURVIVE, let alone function effectively through work and everyday activities. You cant honestly think its those overpriced supplements that are making you lose weight!? Its 100% the fact that youre STARVING yourself. AND of that weight youre losing.. Only some of it is fat! I can just about guarantee youre losing hard earned muscle as well, and ruining your metabolism in the process. These products and ways of eating are certainly not long term solutions to maintaining a healthy weight! And if continued for a prolonged period, may cause serious health problems. There is so much MISLEADING information in the media these days, that it is no wonder individuals are easily lead astray when it comes to what is best for weight loss. If it seems too good to be true (i.e. Lose 10kg in 4 weeks), it probably is! It is simple... Participate in regular physical activity, cut the crap out of your diet, eat plenty of vegetables, proteins, and good fats. And put in the hard work for LONG-TERM RESULTS! Take the long road and ensure that youre creating a sustainable LIFESTYLE, and not just looking for a quick fix. Most importantly, put your health above the way you look!
