“Dear Michael, I’ve tried everything, can you tell me which fat burner really works?”
Does Sensa work? What about Rip Fire? Hydroxycut? Is Lipozene for real?
The questions I’m asked about diet and weight loss products are never ending- because the products and pitches are never ending.
[It doesn’t end with diet products, Reebok was just fined 25 million for falsely advertising it’s “butt toning shoes.”]
I must be getting smarter in my old age, because now rather than explain why these things don’t work, I answer these questions with my own two questions:
If it did work, why would 2 out of 3 Americans be overweight or obese?
If you couldn’t keep weight off before you started using a product, why would you be able to keep it off after you stopped?
Instead of trying to figure out if a diet product “works” here’s all you need to know:
The truth has no agenda.
Without exception, the way to tell if something is going to work is to ask yourself one simple question:
Is someone trying to sell me a product?
If the answer is yes, then it’s not going to work.
It’s impossible for diet and weight loss products to work permanently, because the only solution is in the mirror.
[Note I’m not talking about legitimate diet and exercise information. Honest food and exercise information can help you, products cannot.]
I don’t care what the product is. I don’t care what the advertising says it can do. I don’t care how many testimonials they have.
The only thing that will ever work is seeing unhealthy, damaging, and controlling choices- and changing them.
And no pill, sprinkle, tea, herb, berry, shake, juice- whatever- can do that for you.
I know a lot of people don’t want to hear that- and that’s why 95% of people fail at a physical transformation.
But it’s the truth.
And the truth doesn’t have an agenda to sell you anything.
All the truth requires is that you eat natural food and challenge yourself physically on a daily basis. [Notice how you don’t need to buy anything to do that?]
As they say “The Truth Will Set You Free.”
That’s because “seeing” what’s stopping you from eating natural food and getting active requires removing a lot of self imposed anchors from daily life.
That’s why they also say “The Truth Will Set You Free, But First It Will Make You Miserable.”
The “Miserable” part is where you confront the old habits and choices that stand in the way of your best body and life- and do something about them.
See what I’m saying? Food or exercise isn’t what transforms your body, life, and future into what you want them to be…
It’s having the courage and conviction to live the truth- regardless of how deep the old choices have dug in.
What exactly do I mean by “live the truth?”
It’s choosing an apple over a donut, because the truth is, your body was created and designed to run on natural food.
It’s going for a walk instead of sitting on the sofa, because the truth is, your body was created and designed to be active.
What’s great about the truth is it’s compounding effect. If you develop the ability to choose the apple over the donut, you can develop the ability to go for a run instead of sit on the sofa.
Before you know it, you’re being totally honest with yourself in all parts of life.
The best part is, the more truth you live, the easier your life will be. Live the truth enough on a daily basis and soon your body will do the physical transformation “work” for you [and a lot of other problem areas of life will fix themselves as well].
A pill can’t give your body the energetic, lean, and healthier look it so desperately wants to have.
That’s something only living the truth can do.
A herb or berry can’t set you free from the countless unhealthy products sold to you 24/7.
Only making choices in your best interest can do that.
Living the truth- since the truth has no agenda other than what’s best for you- is what enables living with a clarity and freedom that few people ever come to imagine.
Don’t over-think this. You don’t need to “diet” or start marathon training. You need to take an honest look at what’s standing in the way of the body and life you deserve.
The truth is right there, staring us in the face everyday of our lives, patiently waiting for us to live it.
The truth doesn’t hide in the shadows or try to trick us with slick advertising. It doesn’t ask for our money or time. It has no agenda.
Other than to set us free to live lives of incredible health, clarity, and freedom.
Eat natural food and challenge yourself physically once a day. That’s all you need to know.
How to do that in a world that doesn’t want to tell you the truth is what you need to learn.
I hope you found this “truth seeking” article helpful, because when you get right down to it, knowing- and then living- the truth is the ONLY way to permanently transform your body AND life…
