Can you recommend a “quick weight loss diet” I found myself asking my trainer the other day and as soon as I had said the dreaded words, I knew I had made a fool of myself! Yes, I can achieve a quick weight loss if I went on a no eating diet for example, but can an efficient and lasting weight loss diet remain so if it is achieved too quickly? Rather than striving for a quick weight loss diet, should I have not asked for an accelerated weight loss program? My trainer proceeded to answer this question by the most strenuous training session I had had in a long time. At the end of the session, I knew never to ask a silly question again!
Yet, the passing of time and the speed with which time is indeed passing is a perfectly relevant question! Is it not? You see, I have been lucky in my life to have been blessed with the joys of fatherhood.
With children ranging from the age of 6 to 26, the passing of time, and more precisely the speed with which time is passing is something that has always amazed me. And as I grow older, time is passing by faster and faster!
It is a notion that is difficult to convey to my younger children, even though they are of the generation of “I want it now and I want if fast”.
And it not just the younger ones! Nowadays we want it all, and we want it fast, and nowhere has this been truer than in our needs to lose weight! And the media obliges with 7 days to lose 7 pounds, or the quick weight loss diet recommended by so and so on and so forth!
We live in the world of fast food brother! Why shouldn’t I want a quick weight loss diet!
