What Marriage Has to Do with Permanent Weight Loss… – HuffPost

Its a rainy day here on Long Island, and in about an hour, Ill be heading to a wedding with my girlfriend at a church right around the block. Wed discussed simply walking over there, but with the monsoon thats been coming down for the past hour (and with no hope that its going to stop before 3:00 according to the weather report), it looks like well be driving over there, instead;-)

After the wedding itself, well have an hour or two before we have to head out east for the reception. For those of you unfamiliar with Long Island here in New York, places like Montauk, the Hamptons and several wineries can be found further out towards the tip of the island. Since this is technically July 4th weekend and the rains supposed to die down shortly before wed have to head out, were going to give ourselves a 90 minutetwo hour buffer to insure we can get to the reception on time.

Which brings me to the point of todays email: Commitment. When two people get married, theyre not only committing to each other, but to their spouses family, friends, and the life theyd like to build together. Theres a binding legal document that must be signed prior to the nuptials, and it often entails the bride and groom moving in together (if they hadnt done so already). Any kids or pets that came before the marriage come along for the ride, as it is truly a complete immersion of two individuals lives.

This level of commitment is really quite reminiscent of the one you have to make if youre looking to make a permanent change

Lets face itLosing weight isnt a huge accomplishment anymore! With shows like The Biggest Loser on TV, and a bunch of fad diets and fitness programs that offer you insane results in a very short period of time, losing the extra weight isnt the big accomplishment these days. The big accomplishment is, rather, if you can KEEP THE WEIGHT OFF!

Sadly, we live in an instant gratification society. If youre accessing this right now, then, like it or not, you live in a world of abundance much of the global population doesnt have access to. There are countries that are literally 2030 years BEHIND us from a technological perspective, so email or internet to them is an insane luxury. For us, its a common component of our lives, and is a must

If you really wanted to, you could find a job working from home, have all of your groceries and food delivered to your front door with a few taps of your finger, and you can stream just about anything in the world with a relatively inexpensive internet subscription. We could be shut-ins if we really wanted to!

So when the notions of hard work and of truly adopting a healthy lifestyle to assist in achieving Permanent Weight Loss becomes the reality, many of us would rather revert back to gaining weight and being unhealthy, just to yo-yo and undo all the progress weve made not too far into the future. We really dont want this to take any significant amount of work.

And it doesnt have to take up much of your week! My programs help my clients lose weight FOR GOOD by making their health a priority for just four hours per week. Four out of the 168 hours we have each week is just 2.4% of it! This includes prepping healthy meals and snacks, as well as being fit!

The hardest part is the commitment, the determination and the dedication necessary to really see this thing through. Reaching your short-term weight loss goal isnt the hard part, no matter how much weight you have to lose! Its continuing to eat healthily and to exercise regularly for the REST OF YOUR LIFE! This will insure that you continue to thrive long after the weight has been lost:-)

So, whats it going to be? Are you going to keep yo-yoing, or are we going to nip this in the bud, and make a PERMANENT change?
