Excerpt from Lose Ugly Fat FAST

The grim facts are that 1.5 million Americans die of heart attacks each year, 20 to 30 million suffer from cardiovascular disease, and millions suffer psychological problems associated with excess weight. Being overweight is unsightly, unhealthy, and unnecessary.

There are many ways to go about shedding extra pounds:

  • Fasting
  • Crash diets
  • Diet pills
  • Body reduction surgery

These extreme methods are usually temporary solutions. Quick reduction programs that do not change underlying food habits often lead to rapid regain. Diet failure can feel even more discouraging than being overweight and not trying at all.

Lose and gain, gain and lose, lose and gain — an endless roller coaster. Do you want to get off that ride permanently?
