The Weight Loss Industry Is Not Your Friend at Apeco Health and ...

Do you think the diet industry really wants you to lose weight? Think again!

We see these commercials for diet products, personal trainers, exercise equipment and gym chains. They look so nice don?t they? Get ripped in just five minutes a day they say. Eat the same foods you love and lose weight anyway. Come here for just $10 a month with no signup fee? wow sounds like these companies really care about us, they want us to slim down and want us to get in to the best shape of our lives.

NONSENSE!

The weight loss and diet business is a billion upon billion dollar industry and they care about one thing? selling you their products.

Weight Loss Products

How many weight loss products are out there that you can name off the top of your head? Atkins bars, Medifast, Weight Watchers frozen dinners, Nutrisystem, heck even Diet Pepsi. All designed to help you think they will help you lose weight. Sure you might lose weight for a little while on Medifast or the like, but do you want to eat freeze dried oatmeal the rest of your life?

Of course not, and the marketers behind all this stuff know you don?t. Their goal is to get you to buy it, have a little bit of success and quit. Then you?ll come crawling back for more like the diet junkie you are.

Made for TV Exercise Equipment

Im not going to say all exercise equipment is bad because quite frankly if you want to lose weight you need to get your butt on the treadmill, but you can?t go through five channels on TV without seeing a brand new ?ab ripper machine? or ?compact cardio blaster that folds up and fits under the bed?. Do you really think these things work? Do you think Chuck Norris got ripped because he uses the Total Gym for 10 minutes a day three times a week? Really?

You?ll do what everyone else does and hit your dieting low point and whip out the credit card thinking ?this time for real? and when the box finally gets to your house it?ll sit in your basement for six months until you open it up. Then you?ll try it for a few times, not see 6 pack abs in 30 seconds and give up, only to go and buy the next ?Fat Blaster X9000? that comes in three easy payments of $59.95.

Your Local Gym Chain

You need to go to your gym. Let me repeat. Get off your butt and go to the gym, work hard and you will lose weight.

So why are gym chains in the list of weight loss businesses that don?t care about you? Because they want you to come to the gym, sign up once (on a monthly rebilling membership) and never come back.

$10 a month sounds awesome right? Guess what? That?s just low enough for you to forget you have it, or not break your back to go cancel it. So every month you pay and more and more of you go in to the gym and sign up while they sit back and collect the checks.

Think about it if everyone who had a gym membership all went at the same time do you think there would be less than a 3 hour wait on every treadmill? Yea, plus the insurance companies that provide coverage to the gym in case someone blows out their pecks trying to bench 600 pounds don?t want that many people either. So next time you go sign up for a gym membership actually use it k?
