How Not To Lose It
How Not To Lose It
Dear Friend,
Be sure to do this if you're looking for incontinence, insomnia, nausea and mood disorders.
What do all of these wonderful conditions have in common? They have all been linked (in some way shape or form) to three popular diet drugs according to the British Medical Journal.
The first one is called orlistat and works by blocking phat digestion. Study participants using it lost almost 7 pounds on average - over more than a year. The trade off - oh, just loss of bowel control... but that's not a big deal, is it?
The second, sibutramine works by blocking nerve impulses to the brain (read that again - it blocks nerve impulses to your BRAIN). But, hey participants lost about 9 pounds. So what if many of them raised their blood pressure, increased their pulse rates and experienced insomnia or nausea.
The third, riomnabant was also a bit scary to me. Participants lost a few more pounds but some tended to develop mood disorders - depression, anxiety and even suicidal tendencies in a few rare cases.
Now, I don't know about you, but some of these "side" effects seem worse than the condition they are trying to cure. So, why do so many people want to turn to these artificial methods to try to lose their blubber?
Call me crazy, but I think most of it comes down looking for the quick and easy way to better health and fitness. (and, I'll throw in my usual disclaimer here that there are a few medical cases where these drugs are useful and necessary)
But, for the most part, people want their problem solved for them. Don't ask them to exercise or eat better, just give them a pill that will cure their condition. They're even willing to put up with other serious effects on their body - as long as a few pounds come off.
Now, the quick and easy fix is not the answer but it's also not necessary to do things the longest and most difficult way either. Choosing the right sort of changes in your life are the best way to go.
One thing to change is how you exercise. I strongly suggest that you up the intensity of your workouts. Not only will you blowtorch the flab off your bod, but instead of negative side effects, you'll get side benefits instead.
High intensity exercise has been shown to lower blood pressure, decrease anxiety, drop pulse rates... I've experienced these myself.
And any increase in exercise can improve your digestion and help you sleep better - the exact opposite of what those diet pills could do.
There is a fast and effective way to lose the weight you want to lose - but it doesn't come in a prescription bottle. It comes from listening to your own body, making a commitment to change and taking ownership in your own health and wellness.
