Читать книгу Stay Fit for Life: Everything You Need to Get a Slim, Fit and Healthy Body - Patricia Williams - Страница 4

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if life allowed you to eat whatever you want without gaining a single pound? It would be bliss wouldn’t it?

You no longer have to worry about watching your weight, or searching through the refrigerator for a low-calorie snack because you’re almost at your limit, or having to exercise those excessive calories off, or having to painfully decide whether or not you should eat that delicious cake sitting on your kitchen table waiting for you to come take a piece of it.

Unfortunately, life does not work that wonderfully because even if you didn’t have to worry about the calories that you’re gaining, then you would have to worry about the type of food that you’re putting in your body.

Well, it’s obvious by now that losing weight isn’t easy. If this is your first diet then welcome aboard and hope that you’ll stay on.

If this isn’t your first diet then please continue and figure out the reason as to why your previous methods have not worked. Yes it does suck that losing weight isn’t as easy as gaining weight.

It’s harder to put off the amount of calories that you’re eating per day than to gain additional calories in one day. We all want weight loss to be simple and it has been wrongly emphasized that weight loss works best when you eat less and work out more.

It’s also been wrongly emphasized that diet pills will help you lose weight. Honestly, if the concept of weight loss was that simple then how would obesity be possible?

Sadly, obesity is possible and it’s occurring on a daily basis. The reason is due to the high level of fast food restaurants located all around us. However, before we can move into the deeper portion of the weight loss system, we have to know the basis of why our bodies make it difficult for us to lose weight in the first place.

The reason is simply due to our ancestors. That’s right. It’s their fault and the environment they were raised in. Due to the lack of available food back then, our ancestors made sure to eat as much food as possible before their starvation period started again.

From there, their body starts to store what was known as fat. In order for them to survive, their bodies were never programmed to set a limit on the amount of fat they could accumulate all at one time.

Unfortunately, now in the present day era, we no longer suffer through the starvation period. We have plenty of foods available to us and it’s both cheap and easy to obtain.

Therefore, if we try to move our body into the starvation period in order to lose weight, we’ll actually be gaining more weight because our metabolism will slow down and our remaining muscle will turn into fat in order for our body to save us from dying.

Even if we were to exercise on a consistent basis in order to rid ourselves of the excessive fat, we will still have to maintain an extreme level of willpower in order to continue on the diet trend. Of course, what can rapid weight loss also do to our immune system?

A few risks that you should definitely keep in mind are: kidney failure, depression, anorexia, and anxiety. A bigger risk that you should also keep in mind is that once you’ve lost all that weight in that short amount of time, it can bounce right back at you times two.

So before you move those fingers of yours to flip the page, ask yourself this: do you want to move quickly with difficultly, or do you want to move slowly and easily? Think about it for a moment because you wouldn’t want to start emphasizing the “die” in the word diet.
