Isn't it funny how everyone tries to do anything but that. Even though we know that method works. After all it's the very opposite of what made us fat we ate the wrong foods and did not eat plenty of healthy fruits and veggies and we sat on our butt and watched TV instead of walking or bike riding.So it has to work doesn't it?

Did we become fat because we ate pills and drunk shakes I doubt it.Yet for some reason that seems to be the first step most people try to lose weight. Why is it salesmen dressed as doctors and nutritional experts get away with trying to convince us they have come up with an effort free solution even though common sense tells us it won't ever work.

But we all know there is no such thing as a magic pill and anyone who tells you differently is just telling you because they want you to buy something from them. I cannot believe how many hundreds of crazy diets come out which people actually follow, can you remember the Cabbage Soup diet?

Yes you did lose weight with it at first, but no one stuck to it. Who could stick to this sort of meal for days or even weeks no one. You would probably feel like you are carrying out some sort of punishment for being fat in the first place.

Thing is all of these diets mean you have to eat food you can't hope to live on for life and that is why they never work as they are so far removed from your normal diet and normally taste terrible you end up quitting and put the weight back on.

Some people will try almost every diet there is before sensible eating these include diets like F plan, South Beach , Martha's Vineyard, Atkins and a ton more including some really crazy diets.

Then we add to the confusion even more by adding in weightloss pills, diet shakes other diet products, slimming mags, plus a slew of other stuff what hope have you got of getting it right ever when everyone contradicts each other and all any of them care about is you making them rich.

WARNING: Your desperation and the confusion will lead you to try almost everything and this could cost you hundreds if not thousands of dollars and chances are you'll be overweight afterwards.
