There are new diet fads. I just heard of one yesterday where you only eat meat and eggs. I find that revolting. All the nutritionists, doctors, ads, etc. clearly state the importance and value of eating your fruits and vegetables. I agree with it. I imagine if you eat only proteins and no carbohydrates you will lose weight for a while. However, what will it do to your health and body? Once you go back to carbs the weight will return. The diet fads are just that new ideas that usually don’t work. The old fashioned eat your fruits and vegetables, get plenty of exercise and eat in moderation are still the best routes to take. Oprah Winfrey just was caught taking something that helped her lose weight while she was a spokesperson for Weight Watchers. How can she justify that? In the movie “Legally Blonde,” the accused murderer could not explain or tell anyone she was getting liposuction on the day her husband was killed. She built her reputation on being perfectly trim and fit based on her exercise routines and certain eating. Once people become a sucess in playing the game of physical fitness, they have to maintain it in other ways just to keep their businesses going. There have been many other shows with individuals who were physically fit who destroyed others to keep their reputations clear and the money flowing. To me eating right and exercise are always the key. Plus, I also like meditation. It clears your mind and if you make your intention that you wish to lose weight, it will work. We all spent too much time worrying about our physiques. The difficult part for people that are overweight is that there is so much fast food available that if a person has no willpower they will succumb to the foods. Again, I do not care for it. I was raised at first with my grandparents and home cooking was always a priority. Only on a special holiday did we ever eat at a restaurant. That was possibly one per year.
