40 LIES THE WEIGHT-LOSS INDUSTRY TELLS YOU
All I have to do is fast for three days, eat protein bars for three days, follow it up with a juice delivery service for three weeks, and then six months of supplements" my friend Violet told me as she unloaded box after box of pills and powders. "It's definitely not cheap, but it's a small price to pay to look amazing in my wedding dress next year!"
While I wanted to support Violet's attempts to get healthier and slim down for her big day, I couldn't help feel but she's been duped. As I helped her put the last box of protein bars full of artificial, unpronounceable ingredients into her cabinet, I thought I might give her an early wedding present.
"When you're done with all of this stuff, let me get you started with the Zero Belly Diet," I said. "The weight loss industry is always trying to sell you some magic bullet for weight loss, whether they're trying to convince you that supplements will suddenly take 20 pounds off your waistline or that a $15 juice will help you stay slim in the long-term."
The reality is, as unglamorous as it may be, real food, exercise, and the right nutrients are what will help you lose weight and keep it off in the long run.
