Talking Openly About Weight Loss

By Chet Sandeksi


Without having to resort to weight loss surgery, many seek steps they can begin taking to shed those extra pounds. To learn the 3 simple steps to lasting weight loss, take the case study of Manuel Uribe into account.

Why are so many Americans concerned about losing weight? One of the main reasons is because obesity is widespread and nearly rampant in America. It is likely that you or someone close to you is, in fact, obese. If you are not obese, odds are that you are overweight.

He refused though, saying he wanted to do it a more natural way. Instead of resorting to weight loss surgery, he began working with a doctor to create the right weight loss program and has seen remarkable success. With the help of his doctor, Manuel he has lost almost 1,000 pounds without the aid of weight loss surgery or anything else unnatural.

There are several factors that are affecting the amount of obese and overweight people in America. First, we, as a culture, do not do very much walking. We are either sitting at home, sitting at work, or sitting in our cars. Generally, we do not use public transportation to travel places; because of this, we spend a lot of time in our cars.

Also generally, in our culture, exercise is looked upon negatively. People don't like exercising and they don't look forward to it. People view exercising as something hard and not fun that they must do if they want to lose weight. They do not realize that losing weight requires a lifestyle change and a modified perspective and outlook on life.

The reason why people struggle to accept that a lifestyle change is needed is because they are comfortable with the way they are currently living with. Very few people are accepting of the idea that they need to change several big things about their life.

Third and finally, returning to a healthy weight takes time and persistence. Manuel's changed lifestyle has taken him nearly a decade to reach his current weight. With his own will power pushing him forward, he has hit important milestones along the way. He started by losing 400 pound on his own before his efforts became internationally famous in 2006 via television programs.

This is a large reason why people are constantly searching for quick and easy ways to lose weight. Just turn on your television on you will see myriad advertisements for diet pills and weight loss programs. The key fact here is that people want to lose weight without effort. Deep down, they know the way to lose weight is to exercise and eat healthy.

He learned the meaning of perseverance as he's spent a better fourth of his life fighting obesity. He took it a day at a time and made it happen. Any weight loss plan requires the same time and persistence to do it right. Avoid quick fix plans because they only give you temporary benefits. Lasting weight loss calls for a change of lifestyle that is unaffected by extreme diet plans. Eat less and more healthily.

These gimmicks have temporary results, but rarely yield any lasting weight loss. If you have tried to lose weight and can't, perhaps weight loss surgery is for you. Weight loss surgery is not right for everyone, but it could be right for you. Come into Jordan Valley Medical today to learn about the procedure that could change your life.
