Statistics show that the weight loss industry earns over forty billion dollars in revenue each year. Let's face it , who hasn't learned how to eat healthier and that you need to exercise if you want to lose weight ? Everyone does . Most weight loss seekers who have been involved with weight loss programs or on the new diet of the week can tell you what it takes . The problem is they can't do it . They just can't adjust their behaviors long enough to either lose the weight or if they are successful they can't make the lifestyle changes required to maintain a healthier body and almost always go back to the old ways and gain the pounds again. Worse yet most people gain even more and end up weighing much more on their weight loss path than when they first started . So, what's the issue? Right away let's examine a few of the better known weight loss programs available today.

Weight Watchers - They write on their website ; "Learn to make positive changes to lose weight and keep it off." I wonder what the statistics show of Weight Watchers who lost weight and actually was able to stay lighter ? Like most more recognized weight loss programs they are a source of good information , support and whatever else you need to know. I repeat , it's all an approach of using will power, conscious battle , in order to modify the programming that created weight gain . Folks , if this approach was a winner , we'd all accomplish our goals, be healthy and happy and the profit made in the area of weight loss would bottom out. Evidence proves this way of doing it is futile or at best, a winning struggle for a small percentage of those who use it.

Believe it or not , the best component of any weight loss program is hypnosis . The reason why (people eat when not hungry or eat past being physically full is emotional . Weight loss with hypnosis is based on the subconscious programming of food being needed as the substance thing used to feel good , cope with life , feel appreciated or whatever the issue . If you would only focus on the body, we are missing the main target of why the behaviors are still happening . Behaviors are established in the mind, not the body.

LA Weight Loss - The issue that has been reported about LA WeightLoss is that it is costly . You suggested to buy their product which can be expensive. And again, you're pretty much left on your own when at home to battle through the nagging, haunting, insanity driven thoughts about those old eating patterns that will make you fat or fatter . Meanwhile , they too bring on highly recognized individuals to endorse their program .

Jenny Craig - Like LA Weight Loss buy our food program and endorsed by a recognized name . If I'm going to become a member of a weight loss weight loss program that will finally end the misery, I want to see a person working full time or 2 jobs , kids , a hectic lifestyle to sports and not so much expendable income . Show me how to get through each day dealing with the difficulties of life that are what's driving me to want to eat out of control with the food that's killing me that helps me cope . Really. Too bad those "feel good" foods are what add more fat easier than grade school addition .

South Beach Diet - Yet another low carb approach method to weight loss . The problem isn't whether or not you eat carbs . Healthy people eat bread, pastas and other carbs we are warned to avoid . The pitfall is being out of control with them . When we balance our food intake and include daily activity , we increase the odds for success at the battle that comes with all weight loss programs.

NutriSystem - Once again a weight loss program appears that is in the selling food market . I didn't know that if you really want to be skinny you had to purchase particular food that only the weight loss program has available . Doesn't our local market carry healthy food that will assist me in my weight loss journey? Sometimes I wonder where all those fit , trim, skinny people buy their food who don't partake in a weight loss program ?

Atkins - Remember when the Atkins Diet was the rage ? So, what happened? Maybe we all realized after a while that like most other best thing to come along for weight loss , special eating plan or food products sold through the program plan that it wasn't the magic or top secret formula to weight loss . That's why after all this time , money spent , time and effort looking for the magic formula , we're still fat !
