NOT FAST ENOUGH

T. from Washington State writes me and tells me she`s doing great,

but the pounds aren`t coming off fast enough. Why is it so important to lose

the weight fast? I`ve lost the weight fast so many times before, and the

poundage came back fast! Yes, we`re all intrigued by diet pill offerings on

TV. They tell you that you can lose eight to ten pounds a week. Eight to ten

pounds of what? Certainly not fat!

When you lose weight fast, your hair falls out. My last fast diet I went on

not only caused rapid weight loss, but hair loss as well. When you lose

weight fast, you lose quite a bit in your face, and when you lose that

essential fat in your face, you begin to look tired and… well, old. When you

lose the weight fast, the body goes into shock and many medical problems can

arise. And when you lose too fast, all the skin on your body begins to droop

everywhere.

We live in a fast society. We have fast food, fast internet, fast phones,

fast cars… to be truthful, fast everything! And my big question to you today

is why is everyone in such a hurry? What is the big rush? You cannot be in a

hurry to lose weight and get healthy. It takes time! I know it just doesn`t

seem fair because the weight goes on so quickly if you are eating with an

overweight mentality. You have a few desserts here, a few drinks there, a

few dinners out, a few cookies in the middle of the day, a few late night

snacks, and then you step on the scale, and you`re 10-15 pounds up!

You are human, and you always will be tempted by the fast and furious ways

to lose weight, but I want you to use that brain of yours and learn how to

lose weight the true way. The month of January is a little more than half

over. Are you losing weight? Remember, it is one of your priority goals this

year. The amount of weight you lose each week will depend on what you weigh

and how diligent you were to stick to the program. Be diligent in all your

actions this week!

Love,
