Weight Control - Why Can't I Have 10 Oranges?Even healthy, low calorie foods may contribute to weight gain and put a burr in your Diet Saddle. Hold on tight! I remember several years ago when my father was battling his weight in an effort to control his diabetes. He once asked his doctor if he could eat 10 oranges a day. Now keep in mind, my father was a fairly smart, civilized man - but a man controlled by his food rather than a man who controlled his food.
Of course, the doctor just stood there marveling at my father's ridiculous diet question, but the truth of the matter is that many people just don't where to begin when it comes to dieting. My dear old dad was one of those people. He tried everything to lose weight quickly - as fast as he could. He tried some dieting products that are now long gone such as AIDS - a type of dieting candy that tasted like chocolate. My brother and I used to beg him for pieces of the candy when we were small. Then he tried the Cabbage Diet where he ate nothing but cabbage. Then there was the stinky vinegar diet. And then, he tried a diet beverage called SEGO. Nothing worked permanently. Oh, he did lose weight - a lot of weight many times when he dieted, over and over and over again. But nothing was permanent. Why? |
