The problem with anything that is too difficult in our busy lifestyles is the fact that eventually we will stop doing what we perceive to be too hard and look for alternatives that are easier.

It’s not that we are inclined to give up when the going gets tough; It is because there are generally easier alternatives these days due to the advances that have been made over the years and in particular with weight loss there have been many advances in both nutrition and fitness training.

Unfortunately most diets are just too difficult for people to maintain for any length of time and that is why the failure rate is so high.

Where there are two alternatives for you to lose weight (provided of course they are genuine weight loss opportunities) then you should generally look towards the easier option as this will be the one that you will be able to continue using long enough to get your desired results.

You should not feel as though you are on a diet because that in itself often means you are working hard to achieve something.

Just the word diet in itself instantly strikes fear into the minds of many people because so many times in the past they have tried various different diets and not had any long term success.

You should think more in terms of making small adjustments to your lifestyle as this is a better alternative than to think you are on a ‘diet’.

For many people ‘dieting’ is rejected in their minds eye as being something unpleasant that is hard to endure.
Improving your nutrition and fitness is not nearly as difficult to maintain as ‘dieting’

Focus on lifestyle changes rather than a reduction in food and you won’t feel like you are having to give something up that you probably enjoy.

Low calories diets don’t work, low fat diets don’t work, low carb diets make you miserable - find out what DOES work! 

While we are not exactly comparable to animals, we can still look at how they eat and then draw a picture of why people become overweight, and animals naturally don’t.

If you think about it, how many overweight animals have you seen? Out in the wild you won’t find any overweight animals, and it isn’t due to lack of food. You’ll be more likely to find an underweight animal than an overweight one.

Even when food is in abundance, wild animals don’t have an obesity problem like humans do. You can’t pin it on their metabolism or digestive system either.

Out in the wild, animals are eating what nature designed for them to eat. They have a good nutritional balance and are able to maintain a healthy state, including their weight.

Most likely the only animals that you will see that are overweight are the ones that we have as pets. That’s because we tend to give our pets the same foods we eat, even if they contain fat or sugar or are nutritionally lacking.

Even the pet food from the store that is processed has additives, colors and other rubbish to keep our pets nutritionally unbalanced. Unfortunately, diabetes is on the rise in our domestic animals as a result of the poor diet that they consume.

So, not only are we jeopardizing our health with poor food choices, we are also reducing the chances our pets have of living a long and healthy life.

We often buy food for ourselves and our pets based on advertising instead of using the guidelines of whether it is good for us or not. People are the ones making the wrong dietary choices, not animals, yet we are the ones who are supposed to be the smartest!

Let’s stop to consider what impact our wrong choices are having. Wouldn’t it be nice if we could be healthier and feel better and have the added benefit of helping our pets live longer and healthier lives?
