Why is the diet industry a billion dollar business when we all know the answer?   The answer -  eat everything in moderation, eat fresh healthy foods and exercise.  Why then do we make it so difficult?  The answer to this one is a little more complicated and you can find 100’s of books that try to explain why and how.  So, with all this knowledge, why is the diet industry a billion dollar business?   Why, because we all want excuses and something or someone to blame.  (I say “we” because I am on this journey with you.)

The challenge:

  1.  Take full responsibility for what we have become.
  2. Admit that we really know the answers and eat in moderation.
  3. Eat fresh healthy foods.
  4. Exercise – at least 3 times a week but 5 or more would be better.  Begin by walking and work up to strength building.
  5. No excuses! Just do it.  If you slip up take responsibility, make no excuses and get back to living healthier.
