No more excuses for not trying to loose some weight!

How often have you heard people complaining about not loosing weight while citing at the same time excuses why they cannot do so. I believe it’s time to be a little bit more honest and identify some of these questionable statements avoiding weightloss.

“It’s not my fault, it’s caused genetically … there's nothing I can do about it!”

Well, first off its true some people are more overweight prone than others. But at the same these people tend to give up on even trying. If you’re the one who naturally has weight problems you should be the one taking most care of what you eat. You should be the one who works out like a maniac. Unfortunately, it’s usually the opposite…

“I’d like to, but I don’t have enough time”

Let me illustrate this excuse with a simple example: Barack Obama works out every day for about 40 minutes. Wouldn’t one assume that if the American president finds a small time frame to get some exercise done that you should as well? Buy some weights to save you that ride to the gym, ride your bike to work or whatever comes to your mind, there are plenty of options!

“I don’t have the money for it”

You don’t believe me that people are seriously using this excuse? Sadly, it’s true. There is a vast amount of rather questionable ‘medications’ and pills out there. Don’t buy any of these advertised pills! A good nutrition plan and some exercise is really all you need…. and being honest to yourself.

So, next time one of your friends tries to bail himself out with one of these excuses don’t let him get away so easily!
