So often I have come across people that have been disappointed with some method or gimmick that is suppose to make their lives better. They spend a lot of money on maybe a water treatment machine that is suppose to make them thin and beautiful. Some diet plan that will "melt away the pounds" is bought and they don't look any different months later. They spend money on exercise machines, balls, mats, etc and those things sit in their closets or attic gathering dust.
When I lost weight it wasn't because I joined a gym, began some painful exercise program or bought some water treatment machine. All I did is I quit animal products and free fats like olive oil. One doctor I have watched, Dr. McDougall has a saying that is so true. He says "the fat you eat is the fat you wear." If we eat animal fat or refined plant fats we will be....ummmm.....too big.
Some of that fat is hidden and not easy to recognize, such as tofu. But once the substance is refined (like with oils), oxidized or damaged (like with roasted nuts) it becomes a problem. In our youtube channel it is our goal to teach people how to change all that.
Now I'm not saying that exercise isn't important but the exercise should be outside, in the fresh air and sunshine. It should be comfortable and pleasant, such as a long walk with the dog. In fact dogs make the best exercise partners. They are ready when you are. They will let you know when it is time and they will put a guilt trip on you if you don't. They also take the attention off of self. So now that you know, go for a walk. :)
