Weight-Loss Pills, are They Worth it?

We were watching the news last night and there are two new weight-loss pills up for review with the FDA. This fact did not surprise us. What did surprise us is that one of them contained some of the same ingredients that were in Fen Phen. This was the weight-loss pill taken off the market for increasing your chances of heart failure. Kind of an oxymoron, lose weight to be in better health, but your heart gives out instead. That’s a pretty big price to pay for a small waistline. Being healthy is more than just losing weight. It’s about being balanced with yourself and your surroundings. This includes mentally, emotionally, and of course physically. We think you know which one we are going to talk about here (ha!ha!) We like to think the physical piece improves the other two pieces of the pie. Have you ever noticed how good your day is when you feel positive about yourself? You tend to hold your shoulders back, head up high, feel more confident, and your brain is sharper too! This is what the physical part of the pie contributes to the whole balance of your life. Sure you can try these new pills and maybe lose a little weight, but you will be missing out on the many other contributions to the balance of your life. “But, if I lose weight wouldn’t I still feel better about myself?” you might ask. This fact may be true to a point, but how good would you feel knowing you may increase the likelihood of heart failure. Another question this also raises is, “Do you want to take a short cut though life?” The luster quickly tarnishes on things that are attained without much effort. Creating balance in your life is work; it’s supposed to be.…but aren’t you worth it? We’re not sure who said it but we think it applies here “It’s supposed to be hard, because if was easy everybody would do it!” So the next time you see an ad for a weight loss pill that just melts fat away, ask yourself, “Do I want to take that short cut to life, or am I worth the effort?” We know you are, but this question is for you to answer.

Yours in health,

Colleen & John

  1. I’ve been trying to lose weight for years. Actually I have over and over again. It gets old. :( I’m going to try another diet plan, but I’m not sure which one. Have any of you tried the Every Other Day Diet or the Diet Solution Program? If so, how did it work for you?

  2. Hi Trish,
    My Wife and I have had many of our clients say the same thing. I have not heard of the Every Other Day Diet, but my wife bought Isabel’s Diet Solution Program to review it. Colleen agreed with how Isabel layed out the program and liked how easy it was to follow. In fact when were looking for someone to write the nutrition plan for our New Mommy Makeover system we contacted Isabel first. How much exercise are you doing along with your diet? This is a very important piece of the puzzle(burn those calories). Just let me know if you have any other questions and we would be happy to help were we can.
