by Chloe Bishop Most people nowadays are looking for easy ways to lose weight fast. We long to have lean, toned and attractive physique and yet we are not willing to work for it. This overwhelming demand for miracle cures is exactly what’s fueling the scams that many diet and weight loss companies are perpetuating. Notice their marketing ploys: “Simply peel and stick to burn fat and lose weight!” (ad selling diet patches) “This will change your body in 3 minutes a day!” (ad selling a “revolutionary” – and extortionate – exercise machine) “Forget about long, difficult exercises! We have a range of treatments and surgeries to make you lose weight…” “Take this pill, go to bed… wake up skinny! It’s magic!” If you really think about it – can you honestly believe their promises are true? Because weight loss is an emotional issue for many, it’s not surprising that many people fall for these scams. Sure they are just doing their jobs – but don’t you think you deserve to make a well-informed and educated purchasing decision? Don’t get conned again. Behind all the sales hype are truths being kept away from you. Here are just some of them: 1. “Weight loss” is not necessarily beneficial. Most (if not all) body wraps, slimming teas, and toning creams work mainly by eliminating water from your body. Here’s the rub- our body is 75% water!! Lose some water and you’ll lose weight, but you’ll still have the same amount of fat! But you gotta hand it to them – dehydration IS an easy way to lose weight fast! Clever, indeed. If you really want to lose weight and don’t care how, you might as well have your arms and legs cut off – that’s permanent weight loss, alright! 2. When You Starve Yourself, You Lose Muscle Mass and Keep the fat! Another “easy ways to lose weight fast” solutions are pills and potions designed to make you lose appetite. An extremely low-calorie diet can work in the short term, but over a prolonged period of time, our body’s starvation response mechanism kicks in, ultimately causing our bodies to hoard fat. The problem is that our body responds to starvation by hoarding fat, cannibalizing on our muscles and shutting

down our metabolism – 3 of the worst possible things that can happen if your goal is to lose fat and acquire a toned look as efficiently as possible. Is that what you really want? 3. The effects are not permanent. Another problem with all these quick fix solutions is that you have to keep spending money on these products. After all, that’s what they’re designed to do: give you fast, easy solutions to symptoms but never the actual problem so that vendors get repeat customers. Doesn’t sound too good now, does it? Conclusion A more worthy goal to aim for (instead of weight loss) is fat loss. Measure your body fat percentage and aim to decrease it using healthy methods that will give you lasting results. A tailored nutrition plan, exercise and motivational training are the hallmarks of a tried and tested fat loss program. Using natural methods, you may need to pay a higher price with your sweat and resilience to see results, but the benefits are worth it. Don’t be fooled and believe that there are magic potions/creams/pills out there that can magically transform your body without much effort on your part. If there are such magical solutions, we would all be consuming them! Recommendation The best way to ensure you don’t fall for such shenanigans is to educate yourself about how to eat well and exercise properly to achieve your own fat loss goals. The best resource I’ve found about fat-burning and muscle building is Tom Venuto’s Burn the Fat Feed the Muscle program. Burn the Fat showed me something i never thought possible: for me to change permanently and find the way to go after the goals I really aspire to achieve; to work out religiously, but to genuinely enjoy it; To have a strict diet, but to realize that the endless benefits I reap (self-confidence, satisfying sex life, higher energy and productivity, etc) far outweigh the price I have to pay to have my most amazing body.
