How you can lose 40 pounds without really trying, Part 2: Never diet
Wednesday, July 26th, 2006by Ken Winston Caine
Don’t diet.
Diets require willpower. Diets imply “temporary.” Diets deprive.
(And diets deprave. I say that with only the tiniest tip of tongue in cheek. I’ve DONE diets. I know about diets.)
Diets don’t work.
At least not for long. Not for weight loss.
We all know people who’ve lost lots of weight while rigorously subjecting themselves to dieting.
And we all know people who’ve put it all back on, and then some, within 12 months of finishing the diet.
Maybe you are one of those people.
I am.
A diet punishes you. You may enjoy and rationalize self-flogging (more…)
