RSS Feeds: Blog Review: Weight Loss Weapons
Is this a blog about weight loss or is it about something more specific? Only a review can tell.
What is "Weight Loss Weapons" all about?
According to Steve's "About Me" page, he has struggled with his weight for years. He's tried fad diets, read countless weight loss books and purchased far too many useless exercise machines, which all led to one simple conclusion: "The only way to lose that weight is to be conscious of what I’m eating and get my ass moving."
This is what he, through his blog, will try to teach, promote and inspire others to do.
Site Design
I ignored the theme this time because it's a typical WordPress theme, the type of which is favored by bloggers: two right sidebars. Besides, there was nothing obvious I could find wrong with it.
The header, as well as the tagline, is where the action's at. I like it a lot. "Arming you one post at a time" is the perfect tagline to go with "Weight Loss Weapons". Seriously, I couldn't have thought of anything better if I tried.
Article Content
I don't have a real problem with my weight. I'm hovering between 200 and 220, which is average for someone at 5 feet, 10 inches quickly approaching the age of 50. I'm not gaining weight; I'm actually losing a pound or two per month without trying. The biggest reason, I believe, is because I don't snack between meals and I don't eat junk food (except maybe once a month around payday).
When it comes to maintaining your weight at a normal level or losing weight to get there, Steve's latest article tells you NOT to do it for yourself. People tend to procrastinate when they do things, that aren't any fun, for themselves. Doing it for someone else is a much stronger incentive.
My Overall Opinion
Being overweight is a problem that plagues Americans more than any other country. I blame fast food, video games, television, and convenience for the problem. You can hop in your car, hit the drive-through for just about any fast-food chain in minutes, return home and plop down on the couch in front of the boob tube, or hook up with your favorite video game, all within an hour.
That's a stark contrast to other countries where it can take an hour just to navigate through all the traffic (especially in Asia). Also in other countries, people tend to walk more than they do in the US. That alone keeps them healthier on the average.
Read what Steve has to say. There's some good advice on his blog. You only need to heed it.

I agree with the "don't do it yourself" policy. It helps to have a trainer or even a friend that works with you to motivate each other symbiotically.
My latest blog post: Have You Heard Of Glow In The Dark Contacts?
While I've never had a problem with being overweight, as a trainer I've meet several people who have.
The ones who succeed in losing weight are more motivated and dedicated to it and apply gradual lifestyle changes.
Hope this helps
You are spot on regarding lifestyle. If we keep the same bad habits, we'll never lose the weight. Sedentary activities like watching television and sitting in front of the computer (my favorite) contribute to a fatter society. You need to push yourself to take a half an hour at least each day and go outside for a walk.
