Weight Loss
Do you need a weight Loss Program?
That’s a question you have to ask yourself. Do you need a weight loss program to lose weight? You know many years ago there were no weight loss programs because people were not fat. They did more physical work and ate healthier foods. There were no fast food restaurants, no snack foods, no TV, no slick advertising campaigns pushing snack food and fast food restaurants at us. Today the average American does very little physical work and almost no exercise.
We are now known as an overweight society. We live in a fast world; eat in a lot of fast food. Stop! and start a weight loss program
Restaurants and consume an awful amount of snacks. We do not have time to prepare our own meals. There are now over 500,000 fast food restaurants worldwide and growing at a rapid rate. The average American family eats out 4 times a week mostly at fast food restaurants. Kids 6 to 14 are more likely to eat fast food than any other age group and they are getting fatter and fatter quicker than any other group. In addition to the fast food we (the American public) consume almost 5 billion lbs of snack food each year.
Let’s look at why this has such an impact on our weight. A Big Mac value meal with French fries contains 1010 Calories and 63 grams of fat. Yet you are only supposed to have 65 grams of fat and 2000 calories or the entire day. Add a super-size coke to this meal and is it any wonder that we are getting fatter and need a weight loss program.
So what is the answer? Well most experts will tell you to eat healthy nutritional meals, get plenty of exercise and a good night’s sleep. Kick the TV habit and take up some sort of exercise. Reduce your dependence on fast food restaurants and snack food. If you do go to a fast food restaurant then maintain the recommended daily allowance of 2000 calories, 65 grams of Total Fat, 20 grams of Saturated Fat and 300 Carbohydrates.
Stick to these simple guidelines and you will not need a weight loss program.
