Weight loss means different things to different people. For some, it is just a matter of popping some kind of diet pill whenever they decide to lose a few pounds, or something as drastic as going on a starvation diet on the weekends and losing all the extra weight.
If you have ever used fad diets and diet pills to lose weight, you would probably agree with me that weight loss achieved solely with the help of these temporary fixes is anything but permanent!
You stop the intake of diet pills or the crash dieting, and the weight comes back, usually very quickly!
This loss of weight can hardly be viewed as a success since successful weight loss is about losing weight permanently so that the weight lost never comes back again! As a matter of fact, permanent weight loss cannot be achieved with diet pills or fad diets; it can only be achieved by changing from an unhealthy way of eating and living to a healthier lifestyle including a more natural diet.
No matter what the 'weight loss experts' tell you, the fact remains that if you supply enough nutrition to your body regularly, it would always be fit and healthy, keeping you free not only from weight gain but also from many harmful diseases!
Is your current diet a nutritious one? Do the foods you consume now just fill up your belly while providing only empty calories that don't provide your body with the necessary nutrition to function properly and stay healthy? Unfortunately, these empty calories only get deposited in your body as fat, leading to eventual obesity! This kind of unhealthy diet usually leaves you feeling tired and sluggish with little energy to go on.
While it is certainly easier said than done, if you can just basically follow the laws of nature, it would be impossible for you to gain weight, ever! This means that you should eat natural foods instead of processed junk, use your hands instead of machines to perform most of your routine tasks, don't be a couch potato or a slave to your computer, don't eat before bedtime, and get to bed as well as get up at appropriate times!
Does this describe your current lifestyle? If your answer is "no", then you are violating the laws of nature and becoming obese is the natural outcome of your lifestyle habits! Your health and your weight will almost certainly suffer unless you learn how to lose weight naturally, and put that knowledge into action.
But forget about obesity for the moment. If you continue this type of unnatural lifestyle, chances are you could soon find yourself burdened with more serious problems than being overweight. Harmful diseases such as coronary disease, kidney problems, hypertension, high blood pressure, diabetes, and even premature death could be the result of living such an unhealthy lifestyle!
The choice is and always has been yours: do you want to lead a healthy and long life by obeying nature, maintaining a healthy weight through a natural weight loss program, getting exercise and sufficient down time - or lead an unhealthy lifestyle and potentially die an early death?
