down seven pounds by basically just drinking light beer and eating better lunches. people who can't lose weight must just be absolutely Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!).
the physiology of losing weight is simple, sure.
but losing weight and keeping it off requires completely changing your culture of living.
truer words have never been spoken. this is why things like Weight Watchers really work. they force the person to make a choice- you can eat whatever you want but if you do, then you have to counteract the eating with an hour on the treadmill, or 2 miles running, etc. people need to learn to change how they view food and really understand what their relationship with food is. culture in the US looks at food as a reward and that makes people want more of it and they want to indulge in it. couple that mentality with the fact that most american's have no idea what's in the processed food they eat everyday, and it turns into a lethal combination.
the really sad part is, as Fatty pointed out, most people feel like victims when it comes to weight loss but they fail to understand that they own their culture and can decide, if they want to, how they relate with the food options in their environment.
