How many advertisements for weight loss products do we get thrown up in our faces on a daily basis? Pills, diets, kettle balls, ab devices, vitamin supplements, gym memberships, etc etc. They hit us from all sides. “30 days to the summer body of your dreams”. Television, magazines, newspapers, billboards, web sites and the sides of buses. Engaging in any type of fitness or eating program with the goal to lose weight is a sure way to failure. Why? Because it’s temporary. Health and fitness is not temporary. Health is with you until you die. You either have poor health or you have good health, but either way our health is something we all have and it needs to be taken care of all the time. Weight adjustments should only be viewed as a side effect of good health management.
