Talking Openly About Weight Loss

By Chet Sandeksi


Without having to resort to weight loss surgery, many seek steps they can begin taking to shed those extra pounds. To learn the 3 simple steps to lasting weight loss, take the case study of Manuel Uribe into account.

Manuel Uribe is a 47 year old man from Monterrey, Mexico. He is best known for his record as the heaviest living person in the world. Back in the early 2000s era, he hit an all-time high of 1,320 pounds. He had been bedridden for years and was looking for a way out of his predicament. Doctors and friends recommended weight loss surgery as the easiest way to literally get back on his feet.

Millions of Americans are obese, and one million more are overweight. Why do so many Americans have problems with weight?

He and his doctor came up with three simple steps to assure his improvement. Those three steps are as follows:

In order for these individuals to lose weight and stay healthy, alternative cardio exercises may wish to be considered. In coordination with a well-balanced and nutritious diet void of excess sugars and fats, a person who finds an alternative way to experience cardio exercises without using their legs will be able to enjoy the same weight loss and overall health of those who are able to use standard cardio exercises to fulfill this need.

The reason why people struggle to accept that a lifestyle change is needed is because they are comfortable with the way they are currently living with. Very few people are accepting of the idea that they need to change several big things about their life.

Third and finally, returning to a healthy weight takes time and persistence. Manuel's changed lifestyle has taken him nearly a decade to reach his current weight. With his own will power pushing him forward, he has hit important milestones along the way. He started by losing 400 pound on his own before his efforts became internationally famous in 2006 via television programs.

Once the media had finished with their coverage, Manuel kept going. By 2008, he dropped to 790 pounds and has continued working until his 440 pound measurement in February of last year (2012).

But they do not want to make the life changes necessary to do those things, so they are always on the lookout for a way to lose weight without the effort and pain of change. The sad thing is, when people go on these gimmicky weight loss plans, they usually end up gaining the weight right back when they stop the diet plan.

Add in an exercise routine and a little bit of patience and you'll soon be wondering where all those pounds got to. Not that you'll be missing them of course.
