Everywhere you look, there it is. In the bookstore, in your grocery store, the front page of magazines, your doctor's office, and shopping centers all over the nation our weight looms over us. How many articles are about losing weight on those magazine racks before you check out? Which celebrity lost this much off their figure on which current hot diet? Is it a question of health? Look at all the gyms we have. Look at all the medications available such as Phentermine, Xenical, Tenuate, Adipex, Bontril, Didrex, Ionamin, Meridia, Diethylpropion, and Phenimetrazine. There's surgeries for those looking to go that route. The gym waits for us. Diseases such as Bulimia and Anorexia await obsessives. Heart problems, strokes, and physical ailments wait on the other side for those who don't care enough. What in the world is going on?
Although we are not trying to adopt a posture of paranoia here, what we get bombarded with is way over the top. We are flooded with the information and culture of weight loss here in America. Is it ever possible to be good looking enough, or healthy enough? Certaintly.
What's good for you is what your doctor says. We are all born with different body types and different chemical combinations affect us differently. Exercise works for some, diet works better for others. For you, there's going to be a combination of all the available answers that will work best for you. Again you and your doctor will be able to work that out best. It never hurts to be happy about who you are either.
