So why are drugs so heavily used in treating type II diabetes when they appear to be unnecessary in so many cases? There are a couple of main reasons. First, people want a quick fix. Drugs provide that. Second, people don't want to work that hard to get better. Drugs, also provide that. They are easy and relatively fast.
Change is the only OptionThe irony is that anyone who actually makes the necessary adjustments, starts to exercise and eat better, actually gets so much more pleasure. If people could just magically expose themselves to the increased pleasure that they would experience by living better they would have no problem getting started. You have to create in your mind a future that you know gives you much greater pleasure than you are experiencing now and realize that the only way to achieve that is to change your lifestyle.
