Fad diets don't work. Do you want to play at weight loss, or take control and lose weight? I'm not going to kid you. Weight loss for most people is hard. Duh! Take a look around at our obese society. They're everywhere. At every economic and social level. In every ethnic group and color. In every religion and at every age. We are one, big nation of fat-bodies. And lay-zee... Why are we so fat? Because it's too hard to push ourselves away from that fast-food table and too hard to get up and do something physical. So we go on that fad diet we heard about on TV. You know, the one that's got all of Hollywood talking. And guess what. It doesn't work either. Why? Because no one wants to put forth the effort it takes to actually lose weight. Read that again - because no one wants to put forth the effort it takes to actually lose weight. Did you get that? And it's really ironic, as well, because there are only two rules to weight loss: (1) eat less and (2) exercise more. Why do we have to make it so hard? Eat less and exercise more! How many of these 'fad' diets have you tried? Low-carb diet Acai berry diet Negative calorie diet Apple cider vinegar diet Low-fat diet Grapefruit diet Macrobiotic diet All meat diet Cabbage soup diet How many have worked? The truth about virtually all of the fad diets is they don't help to lose weight and keep the weight off. I mean think about it: if a fad diet really worked, everyone would be on it and stay on it. The only way to effectively lose weight is to take in fewer calories then you are expending during the day. But no one wants to hear that. Why? Because (1) we love to eat (2) we hate to exercise and (3) we lack the self-discipline to change to a healthier life style. If you're not serious about weight-loss and a lifetime of self-control over your health and well being, then this book will not benefit you one bit. But if you do want to lose weight, change your eating and exercise habits in a way that has been proven by millions of people the world over and for over 7,000 years, then The Complete Fasting Guide To Miraculous Health And Well-Being will start you on a journey that will change you forever.
