< REVEALED: The Great Weight Loss Lie!

The reason that so many people gain and lose so much weight is that they are
victims of The Great Weight Loss Lie: Thin is Happy.

Many weight-loss programs promise something they cannot deliver: You will be
happier — much happier — once you get to what you believe is your ‘ideal’
weight.” This is an exciting proposition… particularly if you hate being
overweight.

Here is the truth. You hate being overweight. It doesn’t matter if you are 10
or 100 pounds overweight — the issue is how you feel about it. If you hate
it, you are going to take the bait: ‘Lose weight and love yourself.’
Who could pass up such a wonderful promise? Exchanging fat for love… it’s the
deal of a lifetime!

So you almost kill yourself to lose that vile poundage. You starve yourself.
You deprive yourself. You torture yourself for a month… six months… a
year… even longer. When you finally reach your goal you are excited, proud,
even thrilled with yourself — for a while. Then something happens. It may be
subtle and slow or it may be explosive. You begin to gain weight all over
again. . . . . >
