As I ponder writing for my book “Thin People Eat Less”
I’ve looked at other books that focus on dieting, being healthy, and being fit. They lead to one conclusion: eat less, move more and you’ll weigh less than you do now. There are many “tactics” to get there. But the one true way to do it is to eat less and move more. Some of the other books out there are preachy and harsh. I’m trying to motivate people with humor and common sense.
No one has to be humiliated or guilted into losing weight. I want people to do it because they deserve to be healthy. There is no question that people who are overweight have more health issues than people not overweight.
Don’t believe that you deserve the Twinkie, the candy bar, the double bacon cheeseburger. What you deserve is to be healthy. And the way to do that is to respect yourself enough to make better choices.
I know people are lazy and that cooking is a chore or challenge for some people. But take charge of what you eat, you deserve to be healthy and eat the best food.
Eat whole foods. That is food in their original state, not processed. If you make changes in your diet to do this, it will make a difference in your health if you aren’t doing it know. I am pretty confident to believe that if you ate a bag of apples a day instead of a bag a chips, you would be healthier and thinner.
