A 'Miracle' Pill
Why is losing weight so hard? I mean, it's so easy to gain it, so why is it so hard to lose it? It's not fair, it's really not. If it's so easy to gain it, it should be just as easy to lose it. Or it should be hard to gain, easy to lose. (And if this could be done without exercising, I'd be the happiest person in the world.) Frankly, I really don't care how it's done, I just want to lose the weight. About 20-25 pounds worth of it. I've been thinking to get me started and motivated, maybe I'd go and buy a bottle of one those 'miraculous' weight loss pills. They work, don't they? I wouldn't take it forever, but maybe for a month or so, just to get me over this hump, show myself some progress. I think once I see progress, I'll be a hell of a lot more motivated to get up in the morning and go on the treadmill. But I've been thinking about doing that for years now, and look how far I've gotten. Nowhere. No pills, hardly ever exercise, but I do eat right (at least the majority of the time). I haven't bought those 'miracle' pills because of all the side effects I've heard they have and all of the fatal problems people have had with them. Which REALLY sucks. Why can't someone make a pill with no side effects and no fatal problems, yet works wonders? The longer this goes on, the more tempted I am to go and buy a bottle, and at the point where I am right now, I really think I would. But I have no idea which bottle of pills to get. I don't know which is the safest (I know none of them are really safe, but I'm talking safest out of all). I don't know which one will work the fastest. I think about the only thing I know is that they help you lose weight but can be dangerous. But G-d help me, I want a bottle. Or better yet, G-d should give me a magic wand to wave and make those 20-25 pounds magically disappear. Now THAT would be miraculous.

DON'T TAKE THE PILL!!!
Please, don't do anything unnatural to lose weight. I know, I know, this whole losing weight thing is a killer, but do you really want it to kill you?
And I'm in the same position as you - I need to lose those 20 pounds, but it's just so freakin hard! Nevertheless, having watched a few people almost die to get skinny, I am determined not to follow suit.
K - there's my mussar for the day.
You asked for it! ;)
Lol. No need to worry. I'm going to take the pill. If I really wanted to all these years, I could have. But I haven't. But it's just frustrating having to do it with exercise and diet.
I don't want to die by a diet pill. I haven't come this far in life to die by some stupid pill or some obsession. I'm not going to do anything. It's just that I wish there was an easier way.
Liposuction, my friend.
Or stomach stapling.
South Beach?
I find that I lose weight when I'm doing a million errands for my mom. Running to Jewel a million times, loading and unloading packages, running back to Jewel cuz mom forgot something, doing laundry, cleaning the house, doing the front lawn, etc. is a sure way to strip off those extra pounds. :)
I already do that anyway. Besides, I'm insulin resitant, so it makes it even harder for me to lose weight, on top of the fact that it's harder for women to lose weight in general. I can't win.
I'm just have to get on the treadmill, as much as I hate it.
ACK! dont do the pills! lol. and dont do stomach stapling either...someone i know did that...you know what happens? you keep eating and your stomach stretches back to its original size. there are people who GAIN weight after doing that, and i'm talking LOTS of weight. exercise is the only thing that's going to help, sorry to say. i hate it too....we should make some kind of a pact ;)
I'm all for a pact! I need motivation, deperately.
You never know the side affects of diet pills better to stick to natural. Good luck.
