Weight Loss Program

Your healthy weight loss program is not just to look good. You should not be trying to lose weight just to feel good, to fit into some clothes, boost your self esteem or for a myriad of reasons we can think of. Your healthy weight loss program can save your life. Yes, losing weight is a matter of life and death and if you are not committed to live longer the keep doing what you are doing. Whether it is heart disease, cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure, or really any disease you can think of, being overweight is a cause and losing weight is a cure. ther is study after study that prove excess fat is a contributing factor to shortened life expectancy. Whether we are in a recesion, depression or prosperous times, we have found a way to eat too much of the wrong stuff and gain weight. So if you want to live longer lose weight.

Prevent Cancer

I was watching Oprah ( my wife forced me to watch with her) and she interviewed 85 year old billionaire businessman David Murdock who plans to live to be at least 125 years old. Mr. Murdock can do 50 pushups without stopping at 85. How many can you do? Over 2o years ago Mr. Murdock lost his wife to cancer. In his search to try to save her. Using all his millions to research and try to find a cure for cancer he found out it was too late for her. But, the reason she got cancer was that they were simply not eating right. You would think they ate the best of everything. In fact God gave us all the best of everything. Genesis 1:29 states he gaves all the fruit, vegetables, herbs, seeds, and nuts as the food that would be meet to us. So after spending millions David Murdock realized that his main problem was to eat a diet that consisted mainly of fruit and vegetables. They took a look at his average daily diet and he had an egg white vegetarian omelet for breakfast, a salad for lunch, and another salad with fish for dinner. Throughout the day he would have 3 or 4 fruit juice or smoothies. Now I have not spent millions of dollars but that sounds like my daily diet. It sounds very similar to what I advise everyone I talk to. What he did not say, yet they showed it, he is very active and he exercises regularly.

My Motivation

David Murdock had a similar motivation to me. We both had people who were close to us succumb to cancer. We both began to search and learn as much as we could on how to prevent cancer and live longer, starting with trying to help our loved ones. He los his wife, I lost my father. During our research we both came up with the same solution. That is we need to eat a healthy diet, lose weight and exercise regularly to live longer. David and I both changed our lives and our eating habits. the difference is that David is a billionaire and had unlimited resources and I have the internet and the library. David talked to and hired the best medical minds, I read their books and articles. But to put it simply we all need a weight loss program that we we will eat a healthy diet, exercise regularly and take a natural nutritional supplement to enhance our diets. David has been successfully doing this for 20 years. I have for a year. I have lost 40 puonds and kept it off. David says he needs no medicine and has no medical problems not even a cold. David is my hero and God has showm me that I am on the right path. You can be also. The choice is yours.

Start a Healthy Weight Loss Program.

For me personally my healthy weight loss program started as a mid life crisis. I was 50, my father had terminal cancer and 2 other friends were terminally ill. My career was going down the tubes with the financial crisis and I was wondering about my self worth. On top of all this I was not the best husband and was not attentive to my wife. OK,  less than normal. My youngest son and nephew (who lived with me) were both going through growing pains as they moved from adolescence to young adulthood, fighting to gain their independence yet not being independent. All in all my life was full of turmoil.

But the greatest pressure was to stare into the face of my mortality. I was over weight and out of shape. I could see that I was on a path to self destruction. This became my weight loss motivation. This is why I began my healthy weight loss program.

Not About Weight Loss.

It is not about losing weight. A weight loss program should not be about losing weight. We are not motivated by weight loss in and of itself. Successful weight loss  must be fueled by your personal fire. My personal fire had nothing to do with how much I weighed. My fire was about living a long and healthy life. God blessed me with my circumstances to see that I was going down the wrong path. So I began to study about cancer as it seemed everyone around me were succumbing to the dreaded “C”. The more I studied the more motivated I got to get in shape and lose weight. I learned that cancer is preventable. I learned how to prevent cancer. If you exercise regularly and eat a healthy diet you can greatly reduce the risk of cancer in your life. I also learned that the same formula was true for heart disease, hypertension, diabetes and many other diseases. The lack of exercise and not eating a healthy diet not only leads to weight gain, it also leads to premature death. As harsh as that sounds it is the reality the got me to start eating better and exercising.

Everyone Needs a Healthy Weight Loss Program.

So being over weight and out of shape are not good. But in reality it is normal in our society. More people are over weight and out of shape than not. Excess fat is only an outward sign of poor health. Yet it is acceptable in our society. But the truth is everyone needs exercise regularly and eat right. The other day something was bothering me. I had an internal pressure to write that everyone needs a healthy weight loss program. The next day I was to golf. My good friend and golf buddy said they did not feel good and was going to the doctor. When I called them the next day the doctor said they had a stroke. This friend was the one person we all know who could eat anything and not gain a pound. They where slim (by today’s standard) and seemed to not need to eat healthy or exercise for that matter. God was telling me that everyone needs a healthy weight loss program and it is not about losing weight.

Its About Health, Its About Life.

If we want to live the healthy and happy long life that God promised we must take care of the temple he gave us. God gave all the healthy food we need to eat. Before God created us, he created everything we need. He gave us the plants and the fruit of the trees and said they were to be our meat. God gave us fresh air and clean water. God gave us everything we needed and said it was good. As a matter of fact He said it was very good. Yet we are not obedient and the consequence is all the sickness in this world. Eat a healthy diet now, before it is too late. Begin to exercise regularly now, while you can. Supplement yourself with the natural nutritional vitamin supplements we need to ensure we have all the vitamins, minerals and nutrients. This is how to prevent cancer, prevent heart disease and prevent diabetes.
