What is to become of us? 65% of us are overweight or obese. Are we eventually all going to look like the passengers of the spaceship Axiom in the movie WALL . E? What are we going to do? The obesity epidemic is not getting any better, in fact it is getting worse. If we go on a diet we may lose between 5 and 10% of our body weight, but only for a short while. The weight comes back again as sure as night follows day.
What's the answer? People are becoming more and more desperate to try and find a solution to the problem. The answer is proving to be very illusive indeed.
Maybe it's time to try another diet...it at least shows that you're making an effort. All that calorie deprivation makes you feel that you've got control of the situation. The depression that follows failure is not far off. It's a cruel return for so much effort.
Drugs, are they the answer? When people get desperate they turn to anything. Doctors have been under increasing pressure to prescribe weight loss drugs to overweight and obese people.
Weight loss drugs are not the answer. They are for those who are chronically or morbidly obese. For them there is little else that can get the weight loss ball rolling. They are also helpful to those who have diabetes, and heart disease, but they are not for giving out to people who need to slim down.
Proprietary weight loss drugs fall into the category of diets in their long-term effectiveness. The side effects of weight loss drugs are not pleasant and include headache, back pain, constipation and insomnia, so for those who have to take them, it's no walk in the park.
Weight gain accumulates over time and yet there is the demand that any weight loss should be instant. Fast weight loss unfortunately leads to fast weight gain. Pills and drugs are not a quick fix.
Making personal change is the only real way to achieve permanent weight loss. It takes commitment and the will to want to live a slimmer, happier, healthier life. By understanding your behaviors and being aware of the causes of your condition you can make successful change. You can learn new habits - slim habits, which will enable you to achieve permanent weight loss. No pills! - 15255
