The magic bullet.
The miracle pills.
It’s the holy grail of dieters everywhere.
They search and search. They get excited by medical research that boosts their hopes about something coming down the pike that will cure the overweight malady once and for all without a lot of hard work.

Take a short walk through the supermarket checkout line. Perfectly positioned where shoppers stand, bored, looking for something to pass a few minutes: the tabloids, the women’s/men’s and fitness magazines. Ever looked at those headlines and compared them?

Magazines publish articles with these titles for one reason only: Because they sell magazines. You buy this stuff because you want it to be true. Unfortunately, it’s not.

It’s hard work. Nothing can change that fact.
Slimcerely yours℠,
