Weight Loss Magic

Losing weight isn’t rocket science – it just takes a half-way decent plan and some sustained effort – but people still go to great lengths to find a short cut; and I’ve heard some real doozies.

Here are some of my favorite ‘quick fixes’ to guarantee you WON’T lose a pound.

• Sitting on your butt complaining that you can’t lose weight
• Rabbit’s foot keychains
• Magic crystals (one of my early clients really had a pocketful of “weight loss crystals” spill on the floor during a workout.  It takes a lot to shock me these days.)
• Denying the existence of certain food groups
• Voodoo dolls
• Amulets, talismans and lucky coins
• Ojibwa nation dreamcatchers
• Praying the rosary
• Chicken foot charms
• Talking about losing weight
