I just returned from my athletic club after a 50-minute workout. My wife and I do that five days a week. She’s 50 and I’m 58. We also have a few pieces of equipment in our home. So, why the investment and commitment to fitness? Well, the fact is that my mother died at age 50 from obesity and then my previous wife of 29 years, dropped dead from sudden heart attack brought on from decades of being overweight. Those two events certainly focused the issue for me. Keep in shape or die. I was never that heavy, but did put on some pounds here and there. I liked the sweets like most Americans and ate way too many carbs and starches. That was years ago and now I’m more careful regarding my diet. Enough about my background. I’m writing this article because of something I saw at the gym.

We have wide-screen plasma TV’s everywhere and I was watching Kevin T., the infomercial guru hawking his latest book. It was a miracle cure for overweight folk. Of course he couldn’t tell you much; you had to buy the $30 book. But he hinted that you didn’t have to diet or exercise. Just follow some kind of protocol and bingo! The weight is gone. He lost 45 pounds in two months following his own program, or so he claims. So, here’s another easy, miracle cure for being fat. Meanwhile, I’m sweating on the treadmill when I could be home eating cake and following his advice. Gee, what’s wrong with this picture?

What’s wrong is our entire concept of success. The harsh truth is that it’s not suppose to come easily. Whether you are losing weight or amassing a fortune, it takes hard work and commitment. There, I told you the only thing that makes sense. There is no magic bullet, potion or cure for great relationships, saving for retirement, or looking better. I watch the other male and female members who look terrific because they put in their gym time like we do. That is why they look the way they do. I’ll also bet they watch what they eat as well. After all, why jeopardize all that time and trouble in the workouts?

I’ll be willing to bet you are overweight. Most of us are. Whether it’s a few extras pounds or a whole bunch, we’re fat. The fast food giants and junk-food manufacturers spend billions convincing us to eat their food. Even the so-called reduced fat kind are filled with calories. So we just eat more of those anyway, thinking we are cheating the scale. Restaurant portions are huge and my wife and I usually bring half home. But the rest of you don’t. So, what am I saying here? I’m saying that you have to stop whining and do something before you end up like my wife and mother. If not, you’ll get heart problems, cause liver or kidney damage, retain clogged arteries and as a result, produce a shortened lifespan.
