WEIGHT LOSS - IT`S NOT ABOUT THE NUMBERS - IT`S YOUR APPROACH!
by Greg Ryan - High profile fitness expert with Kathy Smith
Today obesity, diabetes and heart disease runs through
us at epidemic levels, Why? The answer lies not in the
thousands of different kinds of diet, weight loss and workout
programs offered, the answer lies in the approach.
But, no one wants to talk about that. Do you ever wonder why
that is?
Do we not want to know, or could it have something
to do with the doctor`s and those in the fitness
industry not wanting to explain the best approach
to us? Maybe they don`t even know the right way
themselves? Deep down we want and need
too know.
Why do I say this? Twenty years of managing
health clubs and dealing with doctor`s tells me, that if
they told you this, then there may be a chance you would
not need them. Sounds crazy doesn`t it. But, true!
Quote:
"While exercise and eating guidelines are based on good
scientific principles, they do not go along with human nature
or common sense. Recent history is telling us this; we are better
off with encouraging the mediocre people who are willing to
include exercise in their daily lives, rather than cramming
guidelines down throats that are far beyond the reach of the
majority of people. In the end, keeping things simple combined
with support usually works better."

From his e-book: "Just MOVE it," www.resolutions.bz
Over the years most of us who are out of shape and
want to lose a few pounds and feel a little better
about ourselves, developed many different behaviors
toward exercise and food. Some are good ones, but
most are just barriers we have built in our minds. I guess
you could also chalk it up to pure laziness.
However, the bottom line is we are going to continue down
the path of destruction until someone comes up with a plan
to help people deal with the reasons behind such behaviors.
No pill will do it long term, no eight minute ab`s routine will
concur the patterns; the only thing it will take is introspection.
But, do we want to hear that? Maybe, that is just too painful
to even think about right now.
Do you mean I will have to take a good long look at myself?
Maybe so. At the end of the day, you are going to have to
ask yourself, "Do I deal with it now or do I deal with the
consequences later? Because that`s really want it comes down
to. Face the truth on your terms today, or face the reality on
life`s terms down the road in a hospital bed.
I chose to deal with it now.
So where is the magic? It`s not in the pills or programs being
fed to us today and it`s also not found so much in the numbers
on an exercise chart, the amount of weight you lift, or the miles
on a treadmill.
Our success lies in:
•How willing are you to deal with the roots of the unwanted
behaviors?
•Figuring out what truly motivates us?
•Developing a great support system for us personally?
•Figure out the emotions behind the food.
•Simplifying the workout program to fit your lifestyle.
Do we really want to continue to put a bandage on bleeding artery?
Or do we get serious and do some mental surgery that takes care
of the weight problem once in for all.
I say go for it! What do you have to lose except a few pounds?
To your success,
