Losing weight has become a national obsession. People are frantic to shed extra pounds, and fast. Even faster than fast! But baring a few success stories that you see plastered on your local media in an attempt to sell consumer products, almost nobody is keeping the weight off. And that’s “if” they’re losing weight in the first place, which most are not.

Why is this? It’s simple: too much weight loss information.

Too many diet messages. Too many advertisements for the proverbial “weight loss magic.” Too many messages shouting at general consumer, grabbing attention and then leading the would-be weight loss winner, into losing territory.

The gray-line for weight loss says that there is more than one way to lose massive pounds. There are several ways, several productive, one-way roads to your final, thin destination. Your new weight loss power-formula rides on that principal.

No secrets. Here we go: choose one thing, and stick with it. Choose one weight loss device and ride it out onto the highway of success.

Example: stationary bike. The stationary bike is an incredible machine. It works your legs. It jumps your heart rate. It also helps you shed fat. It’s an easy exercise to do. Begin there, or not. But begin somewhere.

Begin with one single thing that you will commit yourself to doing for your weight loss success. Begin that one thing, and continue that one thing, and follow through on that one thing. One thing. Am I being clear? If you want to lose weight you must first begin, and second, follow through.

One thing, one exercise thing, can be any activity. But it must be one thing. The goal, here, is to find something, some exercise that you can deal with doing over the long haul, and then do that very thing until you are the very best at it. Oh, and did I mention that along the way of being the best you will lose weight? You will lose a lot of weight!

When you get good at something, you become efficient. In the case of weight loss, your body becomes more efficient, which means you will shed extra pounds more efficiently. Plainly put, you lose weight faster!

This is not hocus-pocus weight loss, but it is weight loss advice that works. Do not overcomplicate your diet and exercise goals with too much information. Don’t throw unnecessary roadblocks in your path. Begin simply with one single thing, and your weight loss success is virtually guaranteed.
