Our Focus: Clarity in Complexity

8/23/2011

That's this company's mission. My advice: re-focus. This is its Obesity System Influence Diagram. Wow: Just the name is intimidating and complex. Now take a look at  the diagram.

I've never seen anything so complex. I love this diagram because I use it as the backdrop in my presentations. It's on the slide that I use to simplify diet, health, and lifestyle issues into two words. So, I thank this company for developing this B.S. for me.

Everything in moderation.

I enjoy this one. First: What's moderation? Definition please? 

By way of example, would you consider eating one package of Peanut M&M's per week moderation? If so, that equates to 24,000 calories annually. 24,000 divided 3,500 (a pound of fat) equals 7-pounds per year. Now add to that all the other things that you do in moderation. Oops, that's a lot of weight.

Are Short School Lunch Periods Causing Obesity?

Say what? Next you're going to tell me kids don't walk to school any more (I did and I was pudgy ... back then). 

If we tried, and many people do, we could identify hundreds of reasons for obesity. I'm not buying this one.

Less TV = Less Weight and More Energy!

This implies: If you are not watching TV, you will be exercising. TV is not the culprit. Is exercise important? Yes. However, not even exercise assures weight loss. I know many people who exercise and are overweight. In fact, I used to be one of them. Until I understood how to lose weight, nothing worked.

I recommend this concept: Diet drives weight loss and exercise helps maintain it.

Is your treadmill lying to you about the calories you burned?

Who cares? People are obsessed with calorie burn. 

Here's my recommendation: Find an exercise that you enjoy and do it. Thirty minutes to an hour per session will do the trick. If you don't weight-train, I recommend checking it out. And when it comes to exercise, don't overdo it. No need to get an injury while you are trying to be healthy.

Here's an exercise tip. When running your errands, find a parking space far from the store. Those extra few minutes of exercise will add up!

    That's a Bunch 
    of B.S.


    For many people, losing weight and living a healthy lifestyle is difficult. Much of the advice is a misdirection and a bunch of B.S. 

    This blog has been set up to dispel the misinformation and myths that many of us believe. My favorite: Eat Less, Exercise More. There are so many that it's comical. As I see them, I'll dispel 'em! 

    If you've seen one on the Net, let me know. I will dispel it!
