KISS

Do we all know KISS is an acronym for Keep It Simple Stupid?

Practically all United States adults, and most children, are overweight to some degree.  Many of these same people try various methods of losing some of these excess pounds.  There are many businesses selling various plans of weight reduction, but they are unnecessary, and often border on scamming a believing public sector.

Back to KISS.  There is only one way to gain weight.  You eat it.  It is impossible to gain a pound if you don’t eat that pound.  That’s a fact.

If you want to lose weight, and it is probable you should for your own health, the simple way is merely eat less.  If you don’t eat it, then you don’t need to lose it.  No fancy weight loss programs are necessary, and no money is spent losing weight you never should have had in the first place.

Okay, I hear you.  You already have the weight, and need to lose it.  KISS!  For your next meal, fix your dinner plate just like you always have.  Now scrape off half of it into the garbage, and eat only the remaining half.  Yes, you were just about to eat twice the amount of food you needed to.  Repeat this process for a day or two.  Now that you have learned to adjust your portions downward, only cook half of your previous amount and place it on your plate to start with, and quit wasting the other half.

For a day or two you might feel a little hunger, that is to be expected, but it will last little longer than that.  Accept that and resist with all your being the temptation to snack.

You’re on your way to losing weight.  No rigorous exercising is necessary to try to lose calories you should never have eaten.  If you want to exercise it would probably be helpful to tone up your muscles, and you would lose weight a little quicker, but it’s not necessary.  Weight loss is simple, don’t eat it.

KISS!
