Why are a majority of the population now overweight or obese. The simple truth is we have become followers to a society based on quick fixes and mass advertising that promote their products in anyway to fill their pockets with your money. We allow ourselves to be manipulated because we lack the ability to have self thought in what we choose in life. We are told different things about food on a daily, weekly and monthly basis. It's no wonder our weight fluctuates all over the place. We are told about new trends in excercise and health in the same fashion. Why? Because they want us that way. They want us to feel depressed about ourselves that we are inadequate or just not doing what they say right. So here's the answer. Understanding your own body and mind is your goal in life. How can anyone tell you how you think about yourself. They can speculate which is the driving force behind all sales, but really! do they really know? Of course not. They dont know the impact of daily life on you. They dont know your individual issues on just getting through the day. Their paid researchers are constantly looking for ways to tap into your psychological state and adapting to changes in the marketplace or on social media sites. Their conclusion is that you have a brain but not a mind and that mind can be manipulated into thinking what they want. Your mind and body are at a disconnect when you are influenced by others. Your mind is your own! That's how you should be thinking. Your body is uniquely yours! That's how you should be thinking. The most difficult thing you will ever do is to try to take back control of your mind and body because of the mass manipulation of corporations that tell you your wrong. Their wrong! In any lifestyle change you should first look at your genetics or your origins. Where do you originate from. Where does your mother and father come from. Take for example an Italian family. There diet us based on pasta and oils and coffee. If you originate from this group cut your intake of these foods by 50- 75%. You will notice a difference within a week or two. The same applies to any other culture. Find your origin and remove the food groups based on that by 50-75%. Ok you ask why does this work? The answer is quite simple. We have become more sedentary in your lifestyle. We dont walk, farm or take on manual labour jobs anymore so our bodies dont require those food groups in abundance as they did before. So reducing the intake of these foods by half and substituting the other half with healthier options will improve not only how you look but how you feel. But wait. I'm not done quite yet. Here's the thing about a lifestyle change. It means changing your approach to food for life and that's the difficult part. Especially with the corporate giants telling you endlessly that your not good enough. So now you need to change your mind into realizing how much your being influenced by these people and destroying the little evils that creep into your head on a daily basis. This takes effort. I mean alot of effort. But in time you will take back control of you. Meaning your no longer a follower and now are a leader. Your motivation in life is to be motivated by your inner self and the goals and vision you have for your future. If people dont understand the new you. Too Bad for them or drop them as friends. They weren't friends anyway. One last thing. Sodas or diet sodas in ANY form slow your metabolism to a grinding stop. If you drink water (and try this) for a month and then go back to soda you will find the taste disgusting if your also following a healthy food routine. The soda will taste like soapy dishwater. In conclusion; We need as a society to take back control of our minds and bodies by thinking logically about food and water. You will save a load of money. Think clearer and find more outgoing confidence in yourself and really isn't that what your looking for.
