Fitness Magazines Pushing Diet Pills |
|
|
I read most of the fitness magazines and health magazines and
recently was amazed at the vast number of diet pills being pushed on readers. In
one well known magazine, TWENTY pages of full color ads with rock hard bodies,
are "selling" chemicals to desperate women by promising to carve the same look
with little or no effort.
I really am appalled that a fitness magazine would promote
pills ( by selling vast amounts of advertising to drug companies) as a viable
and preferred option for women wanting to lose weight.
ALL drugs have side effects and even drugs once thought to be
safe, can cause all kinds of hormonal and chemical imbalances in women. I say it
again and again..even though some women may need diet help in the form of
pills with a doctors supervision, most women DO NOT and most women can
effectively make changes through a healthy balance of exercise, proper eating,
and rest. There is no magic formula and no simple trick that will work for
weight loss. I hope that women reading these magazines will not be seduced into
thinking that diet aids are a shortcut and a quick fix for weight loss.
Weight Loss, exercise, better health and a better appearance
are the common goals I hear when interviewing a potential client about what they
hope to achieve. Some individuals have taken diet pills and others have already
had plastic surgery or have tried to workout on their own and have not had
satisfactory results. Experience, based on training hundreds of clients, NOT
DRUGS, is how I manage be successful with my clients and get a person where
they need to be in terms of weight and inches. It is also what I recommend that
they do for themselves, after they are finished with personal training workouts.
I am grateful to say that often other areas in their lives are benefited for
the client as well such as posture, sleeping, relationships and reduced work
stress, and these clients have avoided injuries, are tone, tight, free of
depression, motivated and educated on how to continue to be successful with NO
drug SIDE EFFECTS. Being a Top Houston In Home personal trainer requires that I
have ongoing training and certifications and I am very "information hungry" so
as to have the most options available for individual clients based on the latest
medical findings.
TRUST me..get realistic goals, Get some low
fat, balanced meals planned, and GET TO THE GYM or get walkin.
THAT is what works!! Photo of sexy Houston personal trainer Melissa who
