Weight Loss Programs Can Help You

Weight loss programs can help a person when they don’t have a clue how to start. I personally never was able to stick with a program, but that was 20 years ago when these programs were not very flexible and didn’t give you much choice in the foods you ate. But today things are much different and the novice who hasn’t had any luck in the past with these programs might find one that will work for them.


Finding a weight loss program can be quite a challenge. It takes time, mental toughness, and support to change lifetime habits. I’ll give a little advice, not all programs will work for everyone. Some have a 50% fallout rate. You should check their fallout rate before you decide. Very strict programs may work but most people can’t stick with them or shouldn't stick to them. The secret is to try several programs before you decide on one. It’s a process you must learn in order to succeed. Regardless of which of the many weight loss programs you decide to join, you alone are the one who has the power to lose your excess weight.


We are flooded with success stories every day on television and in newspapers, magazines, and tabloids, all of them about people who have lost their excess weight and kept it off with a new miraculous weight loss program.

Diets and weight loss programs are generally more flexible now than they once were. The meals are attractive and can often be prepared in a matter of minutes. Low-fat and low-calorie foods are on shelves everywhere.

You will probably need to learn new, wiser eating skills. You will want a weight loss program that gives you some control, rather than imposing one rigid system. Look for one that offers a variety of different eating plans, so you can choose the one that’s best for you.


Keep in mind, too, that your weight loss program will most likely include some physical exercises. Look at the exercising aspect of your program as fun and recreation and not as a form of sweaty work.

If you are willing to take the few simple steps that lie between you and fitness, you will soon begin to feel better, and the improvement will reflect in every part of your life.


A rule of thumb that I follow when making recommendations, is not to spend a lot of money and don’t sign-up for a long-term program. Weight Watchers is a good program for beginners but you want to “pay by the week” until you’re sure this is for you. The people who always drop out of programs that require going to a gym or somewhere for a meeting always find a reason not to go. People drop out because their lives are busy and over time other things take priority. Choose a plan wisely or do it on your own.


Over a couple of decades, I lost my excess body fat by changing my diet. I did it on my own, just like I quit smoking. Make up your mind that you want to be thin and you can do it.

Look on my Home Page and click on the Tab “Diet”. If you stick to that program you will lose weight. The pyramid gives you numerous food choices every day, stick to the pyramid, and only drink what it says. I did push it a little, with tea and coffee but I drank them black. Wine very little and lots of water. It worked for me and you can eat all you want if it’s on the pyramid. Watch the different groups so you don’t eat some of the foods too often.


Look for my podcast by searching “How Bad Do You Want To Lose Weight” on the podcast app that you use. You’ll see a piece of my book cover.
