Lose Weight

So, if you google "lose weight", you'll get something like 89 million hits... that's a lot of information on losing weight! And there's an awful lot of advice, information, know-how, etc. from an awful lot of people. But boil it down to the basics and it's simply three things: eat healthy, drink water, move. That's it. So, why do we need to look everywhere for so many different fast solutions to losing weight?? What's so hard for us about eating healthy, drinking water and moving our bodies??

Could it be that we are looking for shortcuts?? That we want to eat our cake as well as look at it? That we want to be able to drink our beer or our wine? That we want to be able to just sit on our butts while still losing weight?? The truth is... what got us into a national predicament of obesity is... eating unhealthy... drinking everything but water... sitting on our behinds... So why would hte solution be anything but the opposite of that?

It's simple... it requires committment for sure... but it is doable. We just need to do it... But we can find all sorts of excuses as to why we don't want to do it... why it would be easier not to do it... why we would be happier if we didn't do it... But it's our choice...
