My #questionoftheday is have you ever considered liposuction, lapband, gastric bypass surgery or some other "quick fix" surgery?

A lot of people look for "quick fixes" like diet pills and even surgery to lose weight and get rid of fat. There is some value to this for select people, especially the morbidly obese BUT there is a BIG flaw to these surgeries or diet pills. The BIG flaw to diet pills and surgeries is that it is not changing your past behaviors that got you there nor is it making you healthier. Sure you may think and even feel healthier with the weight loss BUT it is exercise that makes your heart stronger. Too many people go for the quick fixes & don't change their behaviors so what happens? They slowly gain weight back! Now what?! Then they get depressed and frustrated that nothing works when in actuality what didn't work was their behavior! You have to change! To change the outside, you have to change the inside! You have to change your mindset & behavior! A quick fix isn't taking action! It took months, years to get all that fat stored. Your body is not going to just give it up, even if you get surgery. You have to exercise! The body will always fight to keep or get back to the mean weight it has learned & adjusted to be at so you have to fight back to lose it! Save your money in looking for quick fixes and instead invest your time, sweat and money in doing the right thing for your health & body. You can be your own quick fix, it's all within you BUT you are going to have to work and change your eating & exercise behaviors. Don't look for the easy way out, you'll just find that you will waste time & end up being frustrated. Instead rise up to the challenge!
