We do not appreciate simple and doable ideas. Do we?

Most of all, fail to appreciate simple and doable ideas. Yet we spent our hard-earned money and do the hardest things and after succeeding for sometime or failing after long time, appreciate about simple and doable ideas! Losing weight is a big industry across the world. There are medicines, diets and surgeries for losing weight. I do agree there are cases where these options should be undertaken especially if you have health ailments. Many spent money on Keto diet, Mediterranean diet etc. Then some spent on phoney medicines which claim to bring fat loss. The simple and most doable thing is to cut just 2% of what you eat daily and not increase the consumption for a quarter consistently and walk or exercise for an hour. Nothing more or nothing less. One should easily lose 5- 10 pounds. One can do better if they reduce slowly the added sugar and carbohydrates from their diet. When we do it slowly our body gets adjusted to things and there will be less struggle within our minds. But then, we all love instant gratification and go big bang and fail. And then we resort to all the expensive ways. Take’s my take. We do not appreciate simple and doable ideas. Do we?

Maybe not, but i haven't had anyone much into weight loss either, so don't have anything to compare this post with. Guess you're right about losing weight with simple everyday measures. One must try to find out. Are you on a weight loss journey yourself? Anish A

I prefer doing exercises like walking and watching what I eat and drink to lose weight.

I get joy in simple things. I only upgrade if I have to. I still do not own a smart phone but two feature phones.

Yeah the diet plan you have mentioned is pretty simple. The crux is, too much of 'anything' is bad. So just cut down on whatever you are overeating.
