Supporting Others On A Diet

This week we want to emphasize the importance of having some one to help support you while you are improving your overall health. This may seem to be common sense, but what you may not realize is that people are out to make you fail. Yes, that’s right. People (many times subconsciously) don’t want you to have success in your losing weight. Why? Because if you do, then you end up making them look bad.

Think about this for a second. Have you ever been working on your health and a close friend say, why not skip your work out tonight because you worked hard at your job or its late and it would be crazy to do your exercises. When people around you are saying things like this, it takes a lot of focus and commitment to stay on track. Thus the importance of having someone who supports you along the way.

Fat Dad Thin Dad Update

If you have been tracking how Fat Dad, Thin Dad has been doing in his transformation, you will see that even he has things that can get in the way. That’s just part of life. The important thing is to not lose track of what you are wanting to accomplish. In my situation, I have had to work some extra hours, been out of town to attend a seminar, and it goes on and on. Again, that is what happens in real life. This is not where you take overweight people and have them work out for 6 to 8 hours a day for a television show. It is real people with real things in life. Its all about finding what can work for you and taking action.

We put together a short video on what is happening and what we would like to do as it relates to making this into a community that supports others in gaining their health goals in life. Keep in mind that we want everyone to focus on common sense and this includes checking with your health care professional as each of us is different. Check out this video…

High Fiber Diet

You may have heard that it is important to have a diet that is high in fiber. The reason is that without having a certain amount of fiber in your diet, you may have some challenges in moving things through your system - i.e. constipation. What things should you eat to help prevent this from happening. One good idea is fresh fruits. They usually have a lot of bulk in them and help keep your system clean. Other foods are raw vegetables. In fact, if you check out what is happening in the Fat Dad Thin Dad Series, you would see that Fat Dad is doing just that - eating lots of fresh fruit.

Good Alternatives To High Fiber Diet

One way to “keep things moving” is to do the same thing your self. Yes, that’s right. The more you move, the more the stuff in you moves. This comes in the form of planned exercise or even unplanned exercise. Go for a nice walk after you eat a meal and watch the difference it will make in how you process your food.

Bad Alternatives To Eating High Fiber Foods

Some people just want to take that short cut. You know, swallow a pill or drink a potion to make it happen. This short cut may work in the short term, but the challenge is that your body is not designed to keep getting shocked into moving things through it. What ends up happening is that your body becomes dependent on the product you are taking and the nature process could shut down or slow down drastically.

To add a piece of comedy to this, Fad Diet TV found a spoof video that illustrates the sheer strangeness in taking stuff to clean out your system and/or to lose weight. Watch…

What about you? Have you taken pills or potions that may have had a bad effect on your body that you didn’t want to have happen? Maybe even an accident that might have been embarrassing? As always, chose wisely in what you put into your mouth.

Chocolate Diet

I know this may show my age a bit, but how many of you remember the diet candy product called Ayds. You remember that little morsel you ate when you were hungry during the day that was to reduce your appetite. Of course with the way the use of words has changed, it might be hard to promote “Ayds”. Think about it. Your friend asks you how you lost weight, you tell them, “I have Ayds”. Yikes!

Chocolate Diet Program

While the company that started the Ayds candy to help people lose weight may have had a good idea, the real question you have to ask yourself is did it really train you to eat properly once you were done with your “diet”. You see, the biggest challenge that people have in losing weight is developing good eating habits. During the diet, they are forced to eat in a certain way. It is usually one in which the person would not do willingly if they weren’t so desperate to lose weight. Once it is over, they fall back on their normal eating patterns.

Diets Don’t Work

This is a statement that people ignore over and over again. They still run to the latest pill to lose weight, the latest severe diet program to lose weight, or to the latest exercise program to lose weight. They have no intention of doing anything other than lose the weight so they can get back to their life again. That’s why diets don’t work. Nothing really changes except for the amount you will continue to spend and support this diet industry.

Chocolate Diet Example

Fad Diet TV came across a pretty funny video that illustrates how people like to lose their weight. Fast and easy, don’t care how it works, just so I lose those unwanted pounds. Check it out…

What about you? How do you select a diet program? We hope you take some time to evaluate the full deal and to see if it will actually be something you can do long term.
