My Top 10 List on Why We Don’t Lose Weight

10.  Well because we don’t get off our lazy asses to do it Okay, that one was pretty obvious so I had to through it in there!

9.  Can you say Ben & Jerry’s?

8.  Because every time we go into a fast food restaurant we say “Super Size it!”

7.  We spend more time dieting then we do being healthy.

6.  Because we have tons of friends who love to socialize over food - you know, amazing guacamole that HAS to come with fattening chips to be good (That is for my friend Karyn, LOL!)

5.  Gym?  What’s a gym?

4.  Because we’re liars - we lie to ourselves about what we eat.  YES - those handful of M&M’s really did count!

3.  We try to starve ourselves therefore sending our body into a panic that it doesn’t really like all that much.

2.  NOT ENOUGH WATER and too much soda, juice and alcohol

And finally, the #1 reason we don’t lose weight?

1.  Because we don’t really want to

There you have it folks - the reasons we don’t lose weight.  You may be wondering about #1 - but it couldn’t be more true… we simply do not want it bad enough.  I know sometimes I don’t.  If there is one thing you need to overcome it has to be the not wanting it part.  You have to crave weight loss, you have to be passionate about weight loss, and most off all you have to knowledgeable about weight loss.  Because without the knowledge you can’t have the passion or the understanding to get the weight off and keep it off for good.  I have the knowledge part down, now I’m working on the passionate part - everyday I’m saying to myself - I crave weight loss.  And you know what? It’s working! The past 4 weeks I have made great decisions, healthier choices and I’m moving in the right direction (albeit very slowly).  You can do it too!!! 

Like many other things, losing weight is hard work. If it wasn’t so difficult, the world would all be skinny.

great list.  My favorites are #10, #7, and #1.
