Is there really a quick, easy, and natural way to lose
weight? Danged if I know! What I am very aware of is that this
64 year young male had open heart surgery a couple of years ago,
and the great folks who saved my life told me I had to keep all
of the weight off that I lost while in the hospital.
Well, it did work for a while, but before I even realized
it, I was 30 pounds over again. Not good! So back to the
"joint," as I called the exercise room, I went, and sure enough,
the weight began to drop, and the muscles began to bulge. And
sure enough, I backed off of the exercise program, and I seem to
blow up again. Not sure about you, but it sure does get awful
depressing sometimes.
Naturally, I had to do something that would get rid of all
that fat, and give me back my teenage body. However, a little
voice deep down in all of the synaptic connections in my brain
keep telling me that I lost my teenage body a long time ago...
and the mirror at home doesn't lie to me either.
Hopping in my nifty vehicle, I drove to the library, grabbed
about 10 books on the subject of losing weight, and headed out to
the countryside. Having all of the necessary equipment, I
pitched my tent and camped out for the next two weeks reading all
of those books...ok, so I didn't go through all that, but I did
go on-line and read quite a bit over three or four days. The
over-riding discovery I made was that losing weight is very
similar to science. We might be able to adjust a few minor
things here and there, but if we truly wish to lose fat in a
healthy manner, there are certain absolute little rituals we have
to go through.
One little thing we have to do is cut down on our intake of
all those tiny creepy creatures I refer to as calories. Whether
we like it or not, we have to push away all the nasty cakes,
chocolates, pies, sodas, etc., for they are absolutely crammed
full of all types of unwanted fat.
My happy self has never liked beer, but do have to admit
that I love other types of alcohol...and that is why I never
partake of the stuff...I like it too much! And yes, once again,
I am the bearer of bad news---if you wish to drop some
un-necessary body weight, you will also have to get rid of the
habit of imbibing lots of alcohol.
And yep, you will also have to stop smoking...as we are all
aware of the "evils" of smoking, I will not have to be too much
of the bearer of bad news on this subject. It ranks as a no-no
right up there with alcohol consumption.
Enough of the negative stuff! How about what I consider
wonderful ideas on why we should lose the weight...you already
know of all the health reasons, so I thought I would throw in a
few good "spice" reasons.
First, go on the web and look up all of the beautiful scenic
pictures of mother nature....mountains, valleys, flowers,
forests, deserts, trees, oceans, and there is so much more I
could not possibly name them all here. As you gaze at all of
that fabulous beauty, relax by taking a few deep breaths, close
your eyes, and attempt to picture yourself there among it.
Second, think of something you would really like to do right
now...maybe swimming, running, or even camping out on the desert
and being awed by all of the stars. The one activity I enjoy
pursuing is dancing.
This one I have always held dear to my heart, and I know you
will too. You and your loved one load up a very small table, a
white cloth, some wondrous mood music, and no matter how far you
have to go, take off in enough time that you will arrive just a
little after daylight along a nice open area along a lake, river,
or ocean. Once you arrive, set everything up outside your
vehicle along the water, open the doors, put on the slow music
and dance a waltz or two under the stars. I guarantee you, you
will always remember it.
And please remember this---there are people who love you,
and want you around for a long, long time!
