Is Brainwashing Making You Sick and Fat?

by 1 Comment

Have you been trying to eat healthy, but still feel like crap?
Or have you been trying to lose weight forever and just can’t seem to get it off?

Chances are the multi-billion dollar dieting and food industries have gotten ahold of your brain and warped it into making you believe what they want you to. With two-thirds of our adults being overweight, Diabetes numbers on the rise and obesity being more dangerous than ALL cancers combined, it’s important we work together to reprogram our thoughts and beliefs when it comes to living healthy.
Let me give you a few examples of how these industries are robbing you blind and stealing your health.

Brainwashing #1- Lets think about HIGH FIBER FOODS and SUGAR

Current marketing would make you believe it is much smarter to eat a high fiber bagel, cereal or pasta, than a banana, baked potato or an apple. We couldn’t possibly eat a piece of fruit or a potato. THOSE ARE CARBS and SUGAR!
                             
                                              Potato Ingredients: Just Potato :>)

Sandwich Thins Ingredients:WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR, UNBLEACHED ENRICHED WHEAT FLOUR [FLOUR, MALTED BARLEY FLOUR, REDUCED IRON, NIACIN, THIAMIN MONONITRATE (VITAMIN B1), RIBOFLAVIN (VITAMIN B2), FOLIC ACID], WATER, CELLULOSE FIBER, WHEAT GLUTEN, YEAST, SUGAR, CRACKED WHEAT, RYE, POLYDEXTROSE, SALT, GROUND CORN, CANOLA AND/OR SOYBEAN OIL, PRESERVATIVES (CALCIUMPROPIONATE, SORBIC ACID), GRAIN VINEGAR, GUAR GUM, CULTURED WHEAT FLOUR, BROWN RICE, OATS, MONOGLYCERIDES, SOYBEANS, TRITICALE, BARLEY, FLAXSEED, MILLET, CITRIC ACID, SODIUM STEAROYL LACTYLATE, SUCRALOSE, SOY LECITHIN.  YUCK!  HMMM? Do I see sugar and sucralose in these thins? What about genetically modified Soy?

Please do not fall for this tactic anymore. If you will eat a bagel, sandwich thins or cereal (which are ALL processed CARBS), I am here to let you know, it is definitely OK to eat natural, whole carbs from the Earth. Natural carbs from the Earth do not contain high amounts of sodium, synthetic vitamins or food additives. Go Organic and/or to your local farm for the best!
Brainwashing #2 Food is YOUR LIFE, YOUR COMFORT, YOUR HAPPINESS.
Modern day commercials would lead your kids to believe they will be a super hero if they eat a certain candy bar or have a party in their room with each bite of cereal. Fast food commercials and common restaurants want us to believe our happiness can only be achieved through eating our hearts out at their establishment.
FOOD is good, but it can never replace how good it feels to put on your pants or your dress and actually have them fit. It can not replace how you feel when your pictures are taken and show your healthy body.  Will it make you happier to eat whatever you want, even though it will cause you to die 5 years earlier and miss out on your children or spouses milestones in life?
FOOD is GOOD, but it does not bring LONG TERM HAPPINESS and you do not have to feel deprived because you set a few boundaries on what you will put in your mouth. You can know that you will be happier living a healthier life and having your favorites in moderation.
Brainwashing #3- YOU MUST LOSE WEIGHT FAST OR YOU ARE A FAILURE
Learning how to eat healthy, is just like any new habit, job or task we take on. When learning how to play a new sport, you stumble, make mistakes and it takes time to excel. You practice, keep trying and you may even hire a coach. When you get married, it’s tough learning how to communicate and overcome obstacles. A new business is a HUGE learning process. You make lots of mistakes, you put your life into it and you work hard to get through the early stages so you can hopefully reap the benefits later.
Since when do we think we can learn how to change every unhealthy habit we have in two weeks? How can we just start losing weight and know how to keep it off if we are not experts in this field and we have been practicing poor habits for years? Losing weight and improving your health is just like the new job, the sport and the new marriage. YOU ARE GOING TO MAKE MISTAKES! YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE SETBACKS! The key is to know this and accept it. Look at ways to overcome your obstacles, hire a coach, put in some extra studying time- DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO TO TAKE CARE OF YOU! If you stay consistent and keep your eye on the prize of what you want to look and feel like 3 months, 6 months, 6 years from now, YOU WILL ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS!
It’s time we get off the hamster wheel and GET REAL about taking care of our health!
If you want to continue to be lied to by weight loss doctors, pill mills and gimmicks, stay on the wheel.
