Truth or Consequences - Weight Loss for good!

What if you could actively change the outcome of your life by eating better and getting daily exercise? What if you felt better had more energy, less pain, and a better attitude toward aging? What if you approached life with more confidence, rather than dreading the day? The fact is you will never know ahead of time when your life will end. Life, love and logic never seem to be on the same page. You can leave this earth anytime and for any reason. How you decide to live those days before you do go is your choice. You can continue down the path you're going with achy joints, low energy levels, high stress, and poor eating habits or you can choose a different path.

The health of America is going to get worse before it gets better. Diabetes, obesity, osteoporosis, heart disease-are all at epidemic levels. And for the first time in history the kids of today are projected not to live as long as there parents have. The only way for the health of America to get better is for all of us to be personally responsible, change our attitudes toward exercise, and support one another in the process.

In the "good years," more money, more marketing and more-for-me attitudes enabled us to focus on making the big bucks. It allowed us to put off worrying about healthy bodies. The accent was on NOW and not later. But the fiscal wealth we accumulated years ago is NOW being drained by our physical healthcare costs. Eventually, our bad health will consume all the extra dollars we worked so hard to earn. Some of the responsibility falls with the big corporations, insurance companies and hospital groups. But at the end of the day, the buck stops with YOU.

The reality of this situation bites; however, the solution is not to ignore it, but to encourage people to embrace it.

Many of you have either given up on yourself or just flat out are living in denial. Either way the choice is still yours. The fact of the matter is there is still hope for America and there is still hope for you, too.

Don't let the buck stop with you. Take care of your own life before it takes charge of you.

Why start now? Pay me now or pay me later. I can just hear the doctors say. With life comes responsibility and with decisions comes consequences. It's your choice today to do something positive. Tomorrow it may be out of your hands. Remember the three underlying emotions that keep us from taking better care of ourselves: denial, pride, and laziness. Consciously


or subconsciously, this threesome is the root of why most Americans have allowed themselves to get in the shape they are in.

Are you one of them? Chances are sooner or later one or all three will be riding with you in the car to the hospital. Have you found yourself saying these things?

DENIAL

"It won't happen to me…no way, no how!"

Unfortunately, it is what we cannot see that is killing us. Our insides are getting eaten away because of our lack of exercise and poor eating habits. Society is so concerned with extreme makeover television shows that we have been caught off guard with the silent killers: heart disease, diabetes and obesity.

Even if the outside looks good, the damage is still done inside our bodies. Over time we have made ourselves feel comfortable with certain lifestyle habits.

We overlook the long-term consequences of our behaviors. We see things going on around us, but we continue to put off exercise and eating better for another day. Out of the three, Denial is the sneakiest beast of them all.

PRIDE

Denial's brother, Pride, may not be the sneakiest, but he is the strongest personality of the boys. Having too much pride costs millions of lives every year in any arena you can imagine, especially in health and the aging process.

Why do you think New Year's resolutions don't stick? Any decision postponed is one that has not been taken seriously enough. If you have to wait to start on a program or quit a bad behavior, it is most likely wishful thinking.

Yes, the goals along the way should be flexible; but once the heartfelt decision is made, there is no looking back.

When is the best time to start? RIGHT NOW! So I ask you one simple question,

Why Wait?

People wait to start on a program for many reasons: o When you are not so busy o Once the kids are back in school o After the doctor's checkup o When you don't feel good The truth is these excuses will never go away until you decide to do something about them. NOW.

We all have been at points in our lives where we got sick and tired of feeling bad, sleeping restlessly, and having life crashing in on us and our health.

The bottom line is you will only change your habits and attitudes about exercise and eating when-there are no more options!
